Army Makes Record Meat
Purchase.

CHICAGO, July 20. The largest
single order for bacon and canned
meats in the history of the world.
80, $780, 900 pounds of bacon, and 134,
100000 pounds of canned meat-.ha
just been placed by the Quartermaster' {
Department, U. S. A.. for the Amer.
ican Army overseas.s
Louis F. Swift, in commenting on
this today, said the order will take
bacon from approximately 1900, ,OOC
hogs and if other work were dropped to
produce it would be equivalent to the
total bacon production of the five lar
gest Chicago packers for nearly five
weeks, however, six months will ell
apse before delivery,is to be completed,
Mr.. Swift said;
"At the current prices on the day,
last week, when the purchase was
made, the packers would pay the live
stock producers about $50, 200 for
the necessary hogs and over $50, 900, 900
for about 100000 cattle required.
'The cattle will cost us twice ss
much, and the hogs two and one-half
times as much as in the pre-war period,
"The whole sorder will be. made up
before the first of the year, despite the
fact that, even before this purchase,
one.fonrth of the packers facilities
have been devoted to filling military
demands.
I'm order to get out the canned goods
the packers will fad 1t necessary to EN-
ploy night and day shifts of Gamers.
Notwithstanding the fact that the pro-
ducts are being grushed forward thus
hurriedy, not single complaint has
been received on meats delivered to the
arimes abroad.

Cobb was a sensatiOn from the mo.

first worlds series in which he en-
gagged. Speaker was in the game
quite a while before his true worth
was recognized, before the fans began
to pay him the homage which was
his due. George Sisler was a great

glimpsed him. but IL was never his

ATTACKED
 BY GOVERNOR HUNT:
 WORDS BRANDED LIES

All that Fred Sutter need do in or der to stir things up is to follow his past and present line of tactics in his campaign for the democratic nomna- ton Tn the primary race"
 This, in substance, is the ultimatum that Governor Hunt served on Senator Srtter in a sizzling address delivered at Red Lake last Saturday night. What will the governor do? Why, he'll just follow li'l ole Fred around the cam ralgn circuit and burn up the trail behind him. He will turn such a red hot stream of words and rhetoric on the gentleman from Cochise that the neat of an acetylene welding torch Will be like the frigidity of the north pole compared to it. And one demo- cratic aspirant to the gubernatorial chair will be burned to the frazzle of Rooseveltian fame.
 Case Epitomized
 The above is a resume and para phrase of information given out at the office of the governor yesterday.
 It appears that Sutter had addressed those gathered at the Red Lake bar at the meeting got there just in time to hear Sutter pay his compliments to the present administration. Just what this had to do with the present demo- cratic gubernatorial campaign is not clear to many who stand out in front of the state. There are those however, who say that it has much to do with it.
