The Demand For
Hog Products,

The prospect that the trade in
foods for Germany will soon be open
is of interest to the American farmer.
The Breeders Gazette, discussing the
European situation, says:
Americas supply of hog product is
being subjected to a constant deple-
ton by the necessity for replenishing
Europe's bare larder. After four
months of unprecedented slaughter,
during which approximately 10000
600 hogs were converted into edible
product, stock on this side of the At
lantic are not only unseasonably light
but steadily diminishing, as ship space
is available at Atlantic ports. A de-
crease of $4,000, 900 pounds Of lard

increases, tells the story, The pre-
diction was made early in the winter
that heavy as the seasons hog crop
was known to be, there would not be
enough meats or fats to go round.
That the whole civilized world is
short of'fats admits Of no dispute.
Not only Americas allies, but Hol-
land, Denmark, Norway and Sweden
are levying toll on piles in packers

for food, and if half Of what is told

One of Germany's greatest needs is
fats, and the product of the hog will
be necessary to supply this demand.
In the arrangement that is expected
to be the outcome Of the negotiations
at Brussels for provisioning Germany,
there will be large demand for the
American hog products. This will
mean still greater drain upon the
results of the unprecedented slaugh-
ter referred to by the Breeders Ga

"Three hundred thousand steel

Relief to striking families have been

that if the strike was called off now
only 80 per cent of the men would
return to work. Numbers have re-
