World War Wastes Europe's
Meat Supply.
American Stock Raisers Cooperate
With Food Administration In Con-
servation Measures.

1t is probable that Europe for many
years after the war will look to a
great extent to America for Its meat
supply.
Europe's herds are dwindling under
wars demands faster than they can be
replenished.
When the German armies retired
from occupied portions of France and
Belgium approximately 1900, 900 head
Of cattle were appropriated. This ad-
dition 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 I'm
England, as follows: For September,
S17.76 per hundred pounds; October,
SIPS; November and December,
s16.0S, and for January, S14.40. The
evident intent Of this measure was TO
drive the beef animals into market as
soon as possible.
According to official French figures,
the cattle of France have decreased to
a total of 12.341 900 as compared with
14,s07, 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-
ministration has taken steps to con-
serve our fiocks and herds and to In
crease their numbers. The stock breed
ers of this country show disposition
to cooperate with the government In
this.
For many years 1t has been a prac-
tice among many of the dairy people
of this country to kill male calves at
birth and In many instances the fe-
males IL not needed to replenish their
herds rather than go to the expense of
maturing them into veal. The high
prices Of meat caused the virtual dis
continuance Of this killing. Another
encouraging fact is 20 per cent. of
calves killed for veal this year were
males.
Somebody has very aptly said that
the wars of the world have been won
with grease. meaning that bacon and
lard have been as essential to success
in war AZ powder. which II true.
The hogs Of Europe have been very
greatly sacrificed to present day needs.
This makes the American burden all
the more heavy and makes doubly e.
sentinl an increased pork production
in this nation. In Italy grain II now
forbidden to be fed to hogs In Den
mark under a recent order one-fourth
OF the Dogs were ordered to BE- killed.
It Is estimated that one-half have now
been killed

DIR. JOHN GREER HIBBEN.

That militarism will be destroyed
and the world will be ruled by a
more civilized and enlightened code
than that based on might is the pre-
diction of DR.. John Grier HibbeIi,
president of Princeton University,
who was one of the Americans
caught in Europe at the outbreak of
the war in 1914. DR.. Hibben will
be fifty-seven years o:d today, and
was born in Peoria, Ill, the son of a
clergyman. He studied theology at
Princeton and Berlin, and was or
dained to the Presbyterian ministry
in 1887. Four years later he Joined
the Princeton faculty. and became
Woodrow Wilson's successor as Presi-
dent of the famous New Jersey in
stitution.
DR.. Hibben, while denouncing mill
tarism and all it stands for, believes
that the United States needs greater
military strength, but he holds thai
this should be accomplished by train
| ing the citizens without military dis.
play, and thus create "a reserve
power without the diminution of in
dustry and economic efficiency and tht
serious drain upon our, resources
which a large standing army necessi
| tates.'
