SHERIFF H0USER TO
ENFORCE SPEED LAWS
AuTofsTs RUNNING OVER TWEEN.
TY MILES AN HOUR WILL
BE PROSECUTED.

Sheriff Gabriel X. Huuser has sound
cd warning to the auto speeders,
He announced today that he expected
to make number of arrests and to
bring to court every person whom he
caught violating the state laws which
limits the speed of automobiles on the
public highways to twenty miles an
hour. The law Is little regarded by
many Of the autoists, probably ma
jority run over twenty miles an hour
and there has been great deal Of
complaint. Public sentiment will un.
questionably support the sheriff in his
announced determination to put an
end to this wholesale defiance of the
law Not only Is 1t In violation of the
law to run car over twenty miles
an hour, but the supreme court has
held that when an autoist is violating
the law he takes full responsibility for
any accident although it may be due
to the negligence of the party who Is
injured. In other words the speeder
Is law breaker, an outlaw and hence
is to be treated as such in any actions
at law where injuries result.

many will be built as memorials to the
soldiers who went over the sea. Ev-

ton sufficient for holding the largest
convention or gathering they expect

TWO MILLION TONS
OF MEAT ADDED BY {

immediate crisis, it was the farmer
who was the really big factor in the ul-
innate situation" says the bureau Of
animal industry of the United States
department of agriculture, which is
authority for the foregoing statement.
"The producer, OF course, was expect
ed to do his part, but he did 1t with
such powerful effect that in a single
year the meat shortage was turned
into pronounced surplus. Thus in
1918 there was not only meat enough
to supply all foreign demands compat.
ible with the restricted shipping ia
cilities. but greatly enlarged quanti-
ty was available for the home. con-
sumption.
ITO be sure, it cost the farmer more,
much more, to feed his animals and
get them to market. Likewise, all 9th
or steps from producer to consumer
became more costly, hence the high
prices. But the unprecedented pros
perity of the people as whole ena
bled them to afford the increased cost
In fact, laboring people probably con.
sumed more meat during the past year
than in pre.war times p'fsp
Quantity Increases '"Remarkablc'
THE total number OF tcattlet slaugh-
tered in 1918 is estimated LAT. 1880
400," says the bureau, y"as against 13..
723,900 in 1917. Their average weights
are practically the same for both years,
and the beef production. from Them
was $685.. 600, 900 pounds in i94F ana
7,641, 100000 pounds in 1918. This was
a remarkable achievement, as it hard
ly would have been credited that beef
growers could increase their produc-
tion billion pounds in one year.
"The hog natures quickly, there
fore much more rapid increase would
be looked for than was the case with
cattle. Even SO, the results Of 1918
can be described only as stupendous.
The hogs marketed in 1918 numbered
69,S54,700 as against 57,483,800 in
1917. Furthermore, the average weight
was 91a pounds more per hog in 1918.
Thus when the animals are turned
into pork and lard we have total pro-
duction of 11,225,e64,O00 pounds in
1918 as against S,47S,279,000' in 1919,
an increase Or 2,747,s55,00O pounds. or
32.4 per cent, nearly one-third
Striking increases in exports are
also shown by the bureau. Beef ship.
ments abroad In 1918 were 81 per cent
more than iii 1917-Ithe chief 1918
items being 514,oOO,O00 pounds of
fresh beef and al 100000 pounds Of
canned beet. Exports Of pork and
lard in 1919 amounted to 2,279,2S7,-
0S0-which was TIT per cent more
than the quantity sent abroad in 1917.
The bureau shows that in the aggre-
gate more meat by far ia eaten In the
United States than in any other coun-
try in the world-although some
sparsely settled countries raising
much meat have larger per capita
consumption. 1t also says that there
is room in the United States for a
great expansion in the use of mutton
and lamb.
