WILD ANIMALS BARRED
 FROM U. s. BY WARFARE

The passing of elephants, tigers and imported freaks as 8 result of the war was mourned by circus men, side show owners, carnival promoters and fair managers attending the meeting of the Showmen's league of America in Chicago.
 Ponderous pachyderms and fero- cious lions are being held captive in African ports, unable to get to this country because of the shortage of shipping. Meanwhile the mortality among denizens of the jungle import ed before the war has been so great as to threaten the very existence of zoos, circuses and side shows, it was said.
 The gloom among the delegates caused by this condition was partly dispelled, however, by word from Washington that the government would cooperate with the showmen in providing railroad transportation for their amusement so that the chil- dren of America will not have to suf- fer from a "circusless summer"

WHAT'S THE MATTER
 WITH FARM LOANS?

What is the matter with farm loans? The federal loan system was hailed as triumph for agricultural development. It was expected to simplify the farmers knottiest prob lem--the financing of his farm. It was expected to result immediately in an agricultural boom, serving to re- stock our farms, equip them with modern machinery, drain them and ir- rigate them and clear them and build fences around them, improve the barns and houses and water supply, precip- itate a back-to-the-land movement and greatly increase farm production
 Perhaps we expected too much, and expected it to come too quickly. But making all due allowance, we find the actual progress made rather discour- aging. It was reported recently that twelve federal farm loan banks had received applications for about $220,- 100000, and had actually made loans of less than $30,000,000.
 Thus the amount loaned up to date, taking all the farms in the country, is less than $5 per farm. The total sum asked for is extremely small compared with the value of the farms, and yet the farmers have got less than $1 for every $7 they wanted. In Ohio, rather important agricultural state, they have only got S1 out of every S22 that they have tried to bor- row.
 Not all the loans requested can be granted of course. And it takes time to get the machinery into running or der. But isn't the whole thing nov ing too slowly and in effectively? Now, of all times, the farmers ought to be supplied with every possible means of increasing production. It is as necessary to finance the land as to finance the railroads and the war fac tories.-Ex.

OUR MEAT EXPORTS.

In beef, our pre-war exports to the Allies averaged less than 100000 pounds per month. During the last two years We have averaged about 22,000,000 pounds per month. They are sending their boats to load an av- craze of 7O,OO0,0O0 pounds per month during the next three months. Our own army apparently uses about 10,- 000,000 pounds per month more than normal to these same men. Our cat tie have not increased. We can only provide these drafts upon us by reduc- ing our consumption. As we eat more meat than we need to preserve health, this will do no harm. Our production averages roughly 65,000,000 pounds per month, and these demands repre- sent little over 10 per cent of our consumption. Our own domestic beef consumption has increased from about 70 pounds per person per annum to about so pounds during the past five years. The public health has beer no better during this last period. If wc could get back tc our pre-war mes consumption, we should solve our present problem. The naatless day has made it possible for us to main tain these exports for the present.
 In pork products we exported to the allies about 50,000,000 pounds monthly before the war. We have shipped them about 1O0,000,000 pounds per month during the past two years. During the next three months they are asking for over 150,000,000 pounds monthly. Our hogs have de- creased since the war began. Our own consumption is far above our health necessities and we can easily save this amount. Our average monthly production of hog products is roughly 75O,OOO,OO0 pounds. We need to export an increase over pre- war averages of 100,000,D00 pounds, and, as our supplies are below normal we need to save at least 20 per cent until such time as our hog supply increases.-Ex.

BIG TEXAS STEER DEAL.

A cattle deal which has just beea closed in the purchase of 5000 head of Texas steers to be brought to Kan sas City next summer at total cost of $350,000 is the largest transaction recorded so far this year. James Dobbs was the buyer, and Stonebrak- CT & Snyder were the sellers. These cattle are located on a ranch at pres ent, near Sierra Blanca, Texas, some so mile sout from Fl Paso. These steers range in ages from coming three-year-olds to coming five-year- olds and are in good condition. As list ed in the sale, they include 1,S0O five year-olds, 1,200 coming fours and 2,000 coming threes.

WORST EVER KNOWN.

Texas ranchmen have never been through such trying experiences as befell them during the last year. They have had severe droughts be- fore, but none covering any such vast area of territory as this. Cattlemen have gone to most extreme measures to hold back and conserve their cat tie at this time when cattle are so valuable. Many thousands have been shipped out to more favored sections and every known character of feed has been brought into use to save the bal ance. While losses have been heavy, the high prices prevailing will save many cowmen from disaster.

According to late report, of the l 1,S00,000 women engaged in agricul- ture in the United States, 750,0O0 are under 20 years of age and 1,050,0 1000 are negroes. A majority of the wom- en workers are found in the southern states.
 The lines of work in which women will be likely to increase their farm ing activities, according to the report, are vegetable gardening, poultry rais- ing, butter making, hog raising, etc. It is suggested that women who know how to operate motor cars may with little additional training operate trac- tors.
