the announcement that manufacturers
Of the goods have made an agreement
with the war department that they
will supply their entire output to the

The war department is so urgent in
it's desire for quick deliveries that it
has nullified the agreements for GER

pending contracts will be rushed to
completion without any regard to
monthly specified deliveries.

RAISE MORE SHEEP
Necessary for Sake of Economic
Welfare and independence.
dustry in United States in Re-
cent Years.

Washington.-The sheep industry In
the United States must either adjust
itself to the changed economic con-
ditions of this day or continue the
decline which has been it's portion in
years past. Such is the conclusion
reached in a report issued by the sheep
and wool industry by the committee
on statistics and standards of the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States.
The principal remedies suggested in
the report to arrest the present steady
decline in our production of sheep
are, first, the use for sheep grazing of
the agriculturally worthless and cheap
cut-over timber lands of the North,
Northwest and South; second, the
more general and systematic raising
of sheep on farms, where sheep rails
Ing has been hitherto neglected large
ly because of frontier competition;
and third, continued use of the great
ranges of the West to their full capac-
ity. 1t can be done. 1t is a question
of education.
In 1900 we had in the United States
so sheep per capita. In 1917, the fig
ure dropped to .46 per capita. In 1890
we produced 400 pounds of wool per
capita. In 1917 only 2.72 pounds per
capita.
We import now so per cent of our
wool consumption. We ought to pro-
duce that at home sand we can if we
will.
Sheep increase rapidly-from so to
100 per cen annually as compared
with the number of ewes.
There is every reason, in the Opin-
ion of the committees, why, for the
sake of our economic welfare and in
dependence, we should act or the fact
that we can raise enough sheep if we
will, and reap advantage and profit
in so doing.

Revelations of Press Cause

Rome.-The war is costing Italy
$149, 1000 a month or, in round
numbers, about $5,000,000 a day. In
estimating the cost of the war the ex-
penditure incurred during the ten
months of Italy's neutrality for war
preparations as well as the money
spent during the 33 months of wal up
to the end of last February are taken
into account. The estimate is only APP
proximate, because besides the money
actually spent for war expenditure
payments made by the war office and
the admiralty for extraordinary ex-
penditure due to the wal are included
in the calculation.
On the other hand the increased ex-
penditure and the payments made by
other government departments during
the period from August 1, 1914, to Feb
ruary %, 1918, are not taken into ac-
count. Only the expenditure of the
and of munitions is added together in
order to afford an Indication of how
much the war is costing Italy.
Cost of Warfare Grows.
The total extending over a period of
two years and nine months when di-
vided into shorter periods reveals that
war expenditure is increasing. Thus,
while during the first quarter of Italy's
Intervention, from June to August.
1915, $97, 100000 were spent every
month, during the last quarter, from
December, 1917, to February, 1918, the
average monthly expenditure increased
to $3.50, 100000, and it is therefore cal
culated that at present the war is
costing Italy $10,O00,O00 a day.
SO far no serious attempt has been
made to improve the food situation in
Italy, which is gradually getting worse,
not so much on account of acute short
age as to disorganized distribution and
artificial increase of prices due to the
speculations of middlemen and to eX-
tensive boarding. Sensational revela-
lions are being made in the local press
about the profits of middlemen espe-
cially in respect to animal food. For
instance, it has been a~scertained that
the lamb market has been cornered by
middlemen, who are buying lambs at
II cents a pound and selling them to
retailers at over SLIGO, with the re-
suit that the market prices of lamb
have risen tt almost 81 a pound.
Profiteers Unchecked.
Strangely enough 10 action has ygt
been taken against the denounced mid.
dlemen while boarding is being re-
pressed in a half-hearted way, despite
the fact that all the shops and restau-
rants raided afforded convincing proof
that cheese, fats and foodstuffs of
every description are being hidden and
sold at fancy prices. A few arrests
have been made, but the measures so
far adopted are inadequate to improve
existing conditions.
AS the patience of citizens is we'll
nigh exhausted, it is feared that popu-
lar dissatisfaction and resentment will
lead to disorders and thus weaken ma
tional resistance at a time when the
situation is apt to become serious ow-
ing to an impending offensive on the
Italian front. Radical and energetic
measures are therefore imperative.
