MEAT PRODUCERS
DID full DUTY
Increase in American Hogs win
Help to Meet World Fat
Shortage.
FARMERS SAVE SITUATION.
Government Justified in Stimulation
Of Pork -Seyeufold
Increase Over Pre-
War Exports.

Through increased production and
conservation we win be able this year
to export seven times our pre-war
average exports OF pork products.
With the heavy demands added In car
ing for the millions who have been
freed from German oppression, the
Department OF Agriculture and the
Food Administration are justified to-
day in our every action OF stimulation
Of hog production. In the coming year
the greatest world shortage VIII be ia
fats, and pork will help to save this
situation. The efficacy Of the policy
of stimulated production has built up
In this country supplies which viii en-
able US to supply very large part of
the fat deficiency Of the world In
beef there must be shortage in Eu-
rope, due largely to limited refrigera-
tor ship capacity. All freezer ships
available, however, will be filed by
America, Argentine and Australia.
The contribution made by the pro-
ducers of this country to the war pro-
gram as applying particularly to ami
NAL food products is illustrated by the
following:
Reports compiled by the q. S. De
partment of Agriculture indicate an
increase In cattle of 10,23S,000 head
and 12,441, 900 hogs. These figures
were compiled to January 1 last.
In this period there was decrease
in sheep of $4,000 head. The indica-
tons are that this decrease VIII show
an increase, according to recent re-
ports.
Since January l unofficial inforTna-
ton indicates an increase in hogs Of
not less than s per cent. and not
more than Is per cent. as compared
with one year ago, with an increase in
the average weight.
Following the request of the q. s.
Food Administration for an increase
In hog production for marketing In the
fall of 1918 and the spring OF 1919 the
increase may yield not less than 1,600,-
100000 pounds more of pork products
than were available last year. With
Out LhIS AIIiSS.oV tAiO SAiApPi1s PAOs7i an
arranged by Mr.. Hoover regarding am
imal food products would have been
impossible.
The dressed hog products during tht
three months ending September 80.
1917, amounted to 903,172, 900 pounds,
while for the corresponding months of
1918 the dressed hog products totaled
1,277, $4,000, an increase of over 374.-
100000 pounds for the quarter.
During the same period for 1917 the
records of inspected slaughter of
dressed beef showed 1,263,000,000
pounds as against 1,454. 100000 pounds
for the three month period ending
September l, this year.

Daughters Of the American Revolution
Are Getting Out Handsome Christ
mas to Promote Thrift and
70 Teach Patriotism

Kenosha Chapter Of the Daughters
of the American Revolution Monday
held one Of the most interesting SEES
sions, in the history Of that organiza-
ton. The meeting was held at the
residence Of Mrs. d. II. Brister on
Prairie avenue and Mrs. ID. +. Brister
and Miss Emma Brister were the hos
tesses.
Mrs. John Mcmillan, of Milwaukee,
chairman Of the Wisconsin Thrift
Stamp Committee was the guest Of the
chapter and delivered an excellent ad-
dress on the subject Of Thrift. Mrs.
Mcmillan emphasized the fact that 1t
is the duty Of all persons connected
with the thrift campaign and all ad-
ministrators Of food conservation
should be more than ever on the alert
to see that the spirit of thrift and
conservation is carried out to the mimi
test detail.
She pointed out that now that the
real fighting is over so many persons
are likely to think that it is useless to
continue to observe the rules for thrift
and conservation as they did while
real war was in progress and are apt
10 relax their efforts in this direction,
when in reality they should not relax
one iota from the strictest regulation
imposed upon them by the food admin
istration in the most strenuous time OF
the conservation campaign.
Interesting reports were made by
Miss Matte French and Mrs. J. FL
Holm who were delegates to the state
conference recently held at Evansville
Previously to this time the Kenosha
Chapter Of the D. A. r. had organized
a War Savings Society which is now
one of the departments of its work,
In connection with the War Savings
work the Thrift department of the
chapter have had Christmas cards
printed for the purpose of supplying
those who desire to send cards to their
friends. The cards bear a patriotic
sentiment as well as colors and are
published for the purpose Of promot-
ing thrift.
On the face of the card is printed
these lines:
"Nothing useless not expensive, just
joyousness and cheer,
s'For the greatest of all Christmas
gifts is to be ours this year.
"Peace on earth, good will toward
men, in the Homeland and the Camp
SAnd one reason that we have it is
this little, green Thrift Stamp
In the the lower right hand corner
is space for a Thrift Stamp. The
card with the Thrift Stamp attached
makes beautiful, patriotic and valu-
able Christmas present.

My Former Employers

Private Martin N. Meyer, Company
|C, Gath Regimental Transfer Company
with the A. E. q. in France, was form
erly an employee of the Macomber &
Whyte Rope Company. Some time ago
during his rest period he was poetical
lly inclined and he sends back home
this poem which is of interest:
My country is calling,
And answer I must,
Ont in the clouds of dust.
Mid shot and shell I ramble,
Blinded with the poisonous gas,
Even Sherman gave way and trenlbled,
Right as the bugle blasted.
And now I feel / must follow,
Not even muttering a squat,
Down the trail with my nation IS eolors.
With tears in Mother Is eyes,
Have the flag raised high for the boys,
You know they are in the right.
True to his flag and country,
Every soldier viii do or die.
Right in the worst OF the battle,
Over the deep blue sea,
Peace is all they are asking,
Even to the cannon Is roar.
Comes The voice of our people,
Over the golden shore.
May we gain our destination,
Pride is our only oar.
After sinking our ship of peace and
pleasure?
No, we now must return to the Man
of War,
You will find ahead of this margin the
name of patriotic firm.

Bolsheviki in Russia
and Rest of the World
Professor Clinton Barr Delivers Another
Interesting Address at the Adj
ministration Building Monday.

Education through the public
schools is the most effective means
toward an intelligent solution of the
problem of Bolshevism,'' said Professor
Clinton Barr in the third of his series
of lectures in the administration build
ing of the public schools Monday night.
Mr.. Barr opened his discussion with
the statement that society, even in
America, tends TO form into ga three
layer cake represented by wealth,
competence, and poverty. In Russia
the people representing these three di-
visions Of society are classified as Bour-
bon, Bourgeois, and Rolshevist.
Russia IS first insurrection, was init
ated by the Bourgeois under Kerensky.
It was not a success because this class
forms such small per cent of Russia S
population. The Bolsheviki philoso-
ply as enunciated by Trotsky, their
present leader, is that they who do the
hardest and most disagreeable work are
entitled to the greatest compensation.
He who claims title to land by virtue
of Inheritance has not valid claim.
Since sometime in the past that land
was secured by the stronger in physi-
cal contest, it may now be wrested from
the present owner by the stronger in
the fight. A third doctrine enunciated
by Trotzky-"No one shall eat cake
till everybody has bread"
The Bolsheviki in Russia are com
posed of the hungry and the ignorant
and as eighty per cent of of Russia Is
people cannot read or write, this fac
tion leads. While they are in want and
realize their needs, they do not know
how to intelligeatly satisfy these needs.
Russia, in neglecting the education of
the masses, has sowed to the winds and
is reaping the whirlwind.
There is little danger of such situa-
ton developing in Germany because
even the poorest class in Germany can
read and write.
However, there is going to be an at
tempt to spread Bolshevism over the
world. At the present time it threat
ems America as never before. Educa-
tion through the public schools in the
most effective means toward an intelli-
gent solution Of this problem
Mr. Bars topic for next Monday
night is "a United States of the
World"

The CITY ELECTION

The election held in this city Mon
day of this week resulted in the
election Of C. A. label for police mag
istrate by 13 votes on the face of un-
official returns. It is quite evident
that the people thought that we would
have our hands full looking after our
newspaper business without fooling
with a police magistrates job-and
they are right-we are right glad that
Mr.. label was elected as we could not
qualify if the election had gone in
our favor. This newspaper deal did
not materialize until Monday morning,
too late for Mr.. Trubshaw to with
draw from the race officially. 1t is re-
ported, however, that the Times-Rec-
ord Office is to contain judge, W. F.
DuVall having been elected city JUS
tice, so that after all it is not so bad.
We can print the wedding stationery
and announcements while you wait
and Judge DuVall can tie the mar
riage knot right here in this estab-
lishment at the same time. We aim
to please the public and give service
so that chasing around after a minis
ter will not be necessary from this on.
The report on Mr.. DuVall is also un-
official, the returns having not as yet
been canvassed by the city council.
