after the other filled with their monot-

GERMANS RAID LIVE STOCK.

The Deutschland Ueber Allies" pol
icy has actuated the Germans to steal
the live stock OF the Allies in order to
save their own and to increase their
food supply Germany has not
slaughtered her home supply as rap
idly as otherwise would have been
necessary.
AS a result of this plundering, there
is now a practical exhaustion of ami
mails in Belgium, Serbia and Rouma-
mia. Europe has already lost consid-
erably over half as many meat ami.
mails as there are in the United
States today. and considering the
poor condition of the animals still
alive, It becomes an urgent necessity
for the United States to ship TO her
all possible meat supplies.
Food wasted is food lost and no
money can replace il.

1000 pounds of sugar that he sold the

lyered 500 pounds on June Is and did
not take the certificate as was then
required under the sugar regulations
His contention is that the sale was
