SEIZURE OF HOUSEWIVES
FOOD STOCKS IMPOSSIBLE

The government has never consid-
cred any plan Of SELLING foodstuffs
owned by h0useholders. Nor 10 there
any policy Of this kind suggested for
the future.
In spite of this fact, the United
States food administration has been
obliged repeatedly to issue official de-
malls Of rum0rs that the government
intends communicating preserves and
canned goods put up In American
homes.
These rumOrs were originated partly
by pro-German prOpagandists and part.
ly by constituencies grafters, who
sought to profit through buying from
misinfOrmed housewives.
The year 1918 will see home canning
and preserving practiced on greater
scale than ever before in the nations
history, officials In Washington believe.
And they are assuring all patriotic
housewives that foods so saved are
theirs. and theirs alone.

BIC HERDS CONE
World War Wastes Europe's
Meat Supply.
American Stock Raisers Cooperate
win Food Administration In Con-
ssrvation Measures,

II Is probable that Europe for many
years after the war will look to n
great extent to America for Its meat
supply.
Burope's herds are dwlndllng under
wars demands faster than they can be
replenishcd.
when the German armies retired
from occupied portions Of France ard
Belgium approximately 100000 head
Of cattle were appropriated. This ad.
dltion virtually safeguarded Germany
from cattle shortage other nations now
suffer.
In England some 100000 acres Of
grass lands have by compulsory meas.
ures been forced into grain production,
thus reducing pasturage and hay lands.
A declining scale Of maximum meat
prices for live cattle was ordained In
England. a. follows: For September.
$l7.70 per hundred pounds; October,
&l7.2S; November and December,
e18O8. and for January. 914.4O. Tho
evident intent Of this measure was to
drive the beef animals into market %
soon a. possible.
According to official French figures,
the cattle Of France have decreased to
a total Of 1884 800 as compared with
14,8O7 900 In 1913. Today, due to lack
Of forage principally, France Is pro-
ducing only one gallon Of milk where
before the war two and One-half gal-
Ions were produced.
Meantime the United States food ad.
| minlstration has taken steps to con-
serve our fiocks and herds and to In.
crease their numbers. The stock breed.
ers Of this country show a disposition
to cooperate with tho government In
this.
| For many years It has been prac
tice among many OF the dairy people
of this country to kill male calves al
birth and In many instances the 70
males II not needed to replenish theil
herds rather than 90 to the expense o.
maturing them into veal. The higl
prices Of meat caused the virtual dis
continuance Of this killing. Anothel
encouraging fact IL Is per cent. o.
calves killed for veal this year wer'

all through the Spanish regime, has

GERMANY READY
TO LISTEN

Amsterdam. Feb. 25.--Speaking
before the reichstag today. the i'm
perial German chancellor, Count Won
Hertling. made this declaration:
Il can fundamentally agree with
the four principles which in Presi-.
dent Wilson's view must be applied
in mutual exchange Of views, and
thus declare with President Wilson
that a general peace can be discussed
on such basis.
only one reserve need be made
in this connection: These principles
must not only be proposed by the
President OF the United States. but
also must actually be recognized by
all states and peoples.
But this goal has not yet been
reached. There is still no court Of
arbitration established by all the ma
tons for the preservation Of peace
in the name OF Justice. When Prest-
dent Wilson incidentally says that
the German chancellor is speaking to
the tribunal of the entire world,
must decline this tribunal as preju-
diced. joyfully as I would greet II v
an impartial court of arbitration ex-
listed and gladly as would cooper
ate to realize such ideals.
Unfortunately. however. there Is
no trace Of similar statements on the
part of the leading powers of the
entente. Englands war aims are still
thoroughly imperialistic. and she
wants to impose on the world peace
according to England's good plea
sure.
when England talks about the
peoples right Of self determination,
she does not think Of applying the
principle to Ireland. Egypt and In
dia.
1T has been repeatedly said that
we do not contemplate retaining
Belgium. but that we must be safe
guarded from the danger of coun-
try. with which we desire after the
war to live in peace and friendship.

With reference to o statement re-

are inflaming the passion for war
There are, however, other voices to
be heard in England; It Is to be hop.

THE world now stands before q
