MEAT SITUATION
SERIOUS PROBLEM
POPULATION OF WORLD is IN.
CREASING FASTER THAN
GROWTH IN SUPPLY.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-With the
population of the world increasing
faster than the growth in the meat
supply government experts foresee a
serious problem to be solved in the
not far-distant future.
The situation in the United States
has reached an interesting stage.
Within the last ten years the popula-
ton has increased about 10 per cent,
while the herds of the nation which
brought the meat industry to it's pres
ent high development have declined
20 per cent. In Europe the condi-
ton is even more serious because of
depletion due to the war. Australia
and New Zealand continue to produce
great quantities of meat, but the dis
lance to the congested centers of
population adds much to the expense
of marketing. South Americas vast
fields and splendid heritage, there
fore, are being looked to as the
source of supply now as we'll as af-
ter the war.
Argentina is today the most i'm
portant beef-producing country in
the world, according to a review of
meat packing in South America by
the Latin-American division of the
bureau of foreign and domestic COM
merce. Uruguay also is becoming a
center of the industry and Brazil,
Paraguay, Columbia and Venezuela
to a less extent. Out of a total of
915,647 tons of beef, mutton and
lamb produced in 1916 Argentina
produced 336,405 tons, New Zealand
and Australia 262,176 tons, the Unit
ed States 30,522 tons, Uruguay 49,
895 tons, Brazil 1851 tons, Cana
da 21,723 tons, and other countries
the remainder.

AUTOMATIC SOLDIER RISES FROM
EARTH AND SHOOTS 400 TIMES
Danish Engineer inventor of an APP
;Paratus That Will Be Quite a
Novelty in Modern Warfare.

LONDON.-"An automatic sol
der" is one of the latest develop
ments in weapons of war.
A Danish engineer recently has
taken out a patent for an apparatus
to which he has given this name. II
consists of a steel cylinder normally
within a large cylinder, the whole
being sunk into the ground vertically.
By means of a mechanism operat-
ed by wireless the inner cylinder
rises to a height of eighteen inches
from the ground and simultaneously
an automatic rife mounted on the
inner cylinder fires four hundred
shots in any given direction.
These automatic soldiers" can be
controlled from a position some four
or five miles behind the line of de-
Tense, according to the inventor,
They may be seen by the enemy only
when they rise from the ground.
From trials already made it has been
shown, so it is reported, that a few
hundreds of these steel soldiers can
easily defend position against in
fantry attacks, however numerous
the opposing force may be. They
blaze away their four hundred shots
without flinching and never retreat.
In order to overcome the ".automa-
tics" they must be destroyed one by
one.

FOUR OXEN ARE HANGED IN
MOST UNUSUAL MANNER
1t Was Done By Mistake and Did
Not Hurt Them.

Not Hurt Them.
Hanging won't kill an OK. At least
it didn't kill four OF team of oxen
who were swung up at the logging
camp of the Triton Red Cypress Lum-
Der Co., on Alapaha river in Tiff
county.
The company operates a skidder to
snake logs out of the swamp, an open
trail being cut into the center of the
swamp with the skidder on the bank.
Near the end of the trail a tackle has
been rugged up high on a cypress
tree, about forty feet from the
ground, and from this the logs are
drawn from the swamp and piled
alongside the train. Two yoke of
oxen are used to drag the chain back
through the swamp to the logs. A
telephone wire is used to signal from
the swamp to the man operating the
skidder.
One day last week some boys were
crossing the swamp and pulled the
signal wire. The man at the skidder
threw in his clutch and the long chain
to which the four oxen were hitched
was drawn in. The oxen were drawn
backward through the swamp, over
pile of logs twelve feet high and then
hoisted into the air until they struck
the tackle on the cypress, forty feet
from the ground. The key to one of
the bows slipped out and one oxen
sat down from a good height, but the
other three remained suspended in
the air until word could be sent to
the man at the skidder to let them
down. They appeared to be little the
worse for the experience.

SINNERS ARE Buster IN
GEORGIA THAN EVER BEFORE
In Campaign of Two Weeks Gov
eminent Officers Have Destroy
ed log Stills in the State.

ATLANTA, Ga.-The war waged
by A. o. Blalock against Georgia
moonshiners has Melted 106 stills in
the last two weeks and has resulted
in the arrest of ninety-six violators
of the revenue laws.
Since July l special detail of
twenty-five revenue agents, drawn
from all sections of the country, has
been engaged in sweeping Georgia
from boundary to boundary.
Much Sugar Found.
In their "still hunts" the revenue
officers captured more than 1000
pounds of sugar from a hoarder in
Dawson county. 1t is believed the
sugar was to have been used in the
manufacture of liquor. 1t has been
turned over to the food administra.-
ton.
In addition to their war on stills
the revenue officers have made side
excursions against nests of deserters
and slackers, many of which have
been broken up and their occupants
arrested. One deserter, l.. o. Hilley,
of Madison county, was killed while
resisting arrest. Five of his compan-
ions and nine other persons charged
with harboring deserters were taken
into custody.

BERLIN SCIENTIST SEES Men OF
FUTURE AS SICKLY AND WEAK
Medical Dismal Jimmy Says They
will Be Eager to Marry From
Among Surplus of Fair Sex.

N~oA ASi0i SHhHly Gays Aney
will Be Eager to Marry From
Among Surplus of Fair Sex.
LONDON, Eng.-Future genera
lions of Europeans will be sickly and
weak, according to lugubrious fore
cast by Doctor Vaertling, a Berlin
scientist, writing in woman's medi-
cal journal on the biological effect"
of the war. Not only will the war
have wiped out the sturdiest men,
Vaertling says, but its survivors will
be men with undermined constitu-
lions. They will be particularly prone
to marry because of their anxiety to
improve their economic positions.
There will, moreover, be such a sur
plus of women that men will be fired
by desire to prove their matrimo-
NAL eligibility" and popularity with
the fair sex.
Vaertling disputes the theory that
healthy mothers are capable of bear
ing strong children even if fathers
are not in good health. He declares
weak fathers mean frail children, no
matter how strong the mothers. In
those conditions Vaertling sees no
hope of rescuing the nations now at
war from "degeneracy and eventual
obliteration."
This medical Dismal Jimmy thinks
if war-worn men "do not marry in
haste" but allow themselves time for
careful recuperation, the danger of
becoming fathers of a weakling fam
lily will be reduced. He asserts the
first-born are in greater peril than
later children.

GROWS ON SHEEP;
RESEMBLES GREEN FLEECE

WASHINGTON, Ore.-A GU
riousity that most people won't
believe unless they see it is a
bunch of grass-bearing sheep,
the property of John Cartright.
Several members of his flock
have luxuriant growth of tame
grass growing on their backs
and well down the sides of their
bodies, giving them the appear
ance of having a pretty green
fleece.
1t is accounted for from the
fact that grass seed falling from
the feed wagon and lodging in
the wool sprouted when being
continuously moistened by Ore
CONS copious showers.

WORK OR FIGHT MEASURE
STIRS UP VARYING ARGUMENTS
Characterized as Drastic and Danger
Gus. House and Senate Do
Not Agree on 1t.

ATLANTA, Ga.-When the senate
took up the work or fight bill
which came back from the house with
a number of amendments it voted to
exclude students attending schools
from the provision of the bill.
The senate, however, refused to
concur in other house amendments,
including those which made the bill
applicable to strikers and relating to
compensation. The house amend
ments precipitated a warm discussion
in the senate and an attack not on
ly on the house amendments but up
on the bill itself.
Says 1t Would Breed Anarchy.
Senator Moore said he had voted
on the bill under a Misrepresentation,
and upon examining it further he had
found it a most dangerous bill and
that it would "breed anarchy" He
said that under the bill young lady
visiting friend could be indicted for
unemployment; that a man could
take a weeks vacation or even two
days vacation and be indicted for
not working five and half days a
week.
"They tell u.s." he said, "that no
court would construe the bill so
strictly, but we can't tell how strict
ly the different court juries would
construe it."
Senator Fields said that the house
amendment had a tendency to cen
slave and destroy labor"
