TON OF BUTTER MADE
EVERY MINUTE OF DAY
AND NIGHT IN 1918.
Output Of Factory Butter Increasing
Over Farm Butter.

The butter industry OF the United
States Is so large that more than ton
OF butter was made for every minute,
day and night, last year, according to
dairy specialists Of the United States
Department of Agriculture Yet even
this enormous production scarcely
meets domestic needs
The output of factory butter has
increased approximately 20O,0OO,0OO
pounds each 10 years since 1880. Farm
butter-making reached its maximum
production about 1900. The present
trend indicates that it will become a
less and less important factor in the
nations butter supply being superced-
ed by the factory product. Production
Of factory butter in the United States
shows a more rapid general upward
trend than is observed in any foreign
country from which dependable butter
figures have been obtained. The num-
Der OF such countries, however, is
relatively small. Production of re-
novated butter in the United States is
declining. This condition evidently re-
suits from reduced supplies of low
quality farm butter, the chief product
from which renovated butter is made.

H. c. l. COMMITS
SION TO EXTEND
WORK IN STATE
Overchanging Can Be Report
ed And Dealt With Ac-
cordingly.

At meeting Of the Kentucky High
Cost of Living Commission held in
Louisville, Col p. II Callahan OF that
city was elected Chairman.
Furthermore, il was announced that
the Department of Justice had taken
over this Commission and its full per-
sonnet asking il to be the government
tai agency to carry out the spirit and
letter of the law as outlined in the
recent extension of the Lever Act
which provides for fine and impri-
sonment of anyone guilty of profteer-
ing in any of the essentials of food,
fuel and clothing, and the Commits
sion has now agreed upon an extend
ed program to effect an organization
throughout the State, realizing that
the present high cost of living is one
of the most disturbing elements ex-
isting in American life today.
Since the Commission is now under
the direction of the Federal Govern
ment with the full strength of the
Department of Justice behind it, any
one found prohteering in the essen
tials of life may expect to be sum-
marily dealt with. A fair price COM
mittee has been organized whose duty
it is to fix fair price on all necessary
commodities, and as soon as these
prices are completed, anyone found
charging higher price will be
promptly proceeded against through
the u. S. District Attorneys Office
However it is absolutely necessary
that the public periodically do their
art tt,f l,,c xnrArE he ~
| to the High Cost of Living Commits
sion at Louisville, Kentucky, all cases
where apparent overcharge has been
made, for the field of investigation is
so very large that the committees in
vestigators can personally locate only
small percentage of the offenders,
therefore, it is the purpose of this
body to enlist the cooperation of all
business, civic, religious and welfare
associations, but more especially the
citizens themselves in an effort to
remedy the present condition.
A most aggressive plan of cam
paign was outlined with District At
torneys Gregory and Slattery of the
United States Court present who are
to give their full cooperation and as
sistance and the public now has the
assurance that any case of overcharge
reported will have prompt attention
but in sending in these reports, it is
absolutely necessary in order to make
proper investigation that the detailed
information be given as to the price
paid for the article itself, date of pur-
chase, and name of dealer, over the
signature of the purchaser.
The efforts of the Commission so
far have been largely confined to the
City of Louisville, where it has sue
ceeded in bringing about considerable
benefits and it is now our purpose to
extend the usefulness of this Com
mission to all parts of the State, and
anyone anywhere should write the
High Cost of Living Commission,
Louisville, Kentucky, if they have
been overcharged or if they know of
any overcharging prevailing.
