LIVE STOCK CONSERVATION

(Col b. Hofer in The Manufacturer and Industrial
News Bureau)
Is it not time had live stock conservation from the
standpoint of humanity? Should it not be made crime
to allow herds to starve?
We read of five hundred horses near Twin Falls
ldaho turned out to freeze and die Is it Christian to
treat our helpers in that way?
We read of hundreds of head Of fine cattle rustling
in snow two feet deep in Wyoming without food shelter
Or water. Is that human?
We read of thousands of sheep being left to die on
the range with no attempt to get them feed Does it not
spoil our taste for mutton?
The past three dry seasons in the west left hundreds
OF herds and focks without winter range Fockmasters
knew this in advance
WeIto-d and contentious live stock owners made
efforts to ship their stock to other ranges Others de-
iberately let them .starve.
Others made sacrifices to ship in corn and hay and
yet there enormous loss and suffering Are we a
merciflll Christian people?
Ought there not be national law requiring owners
OF herds to make provision for winter feed and water
ing? bond should be required.
What moral right have large live stock owners to
cause poor dumb brutes intoerable suffering? While
they live in wealth and comfort?
What right has the government to allow millions of
sheep and cattle and horses to die from exposure? And
we pay double prices for meat?
No other government in the world allows such cruel
~ Is it any wonder the cost of living is high? Can we
escape the wrath Of justice?

900 less houses than the ordinary supply The law of

condition is being brought about in this country
which is anything but desirable to whOvaes the fu
tllre welfare of the United States.
From the number of mlionaires that have sprung up
in the past few years it is apparent to any thinking per-
that the wealth of the country not peing eqtaby
distributed Entirely too great proportion of it is find
ing its way into the Golfers of favored class at the
pense of the great mass of the people
Milonaires are like mushrooms they are shooting
up almost highland they being created because
system of government makes tpossbe for the many
to be pundered by the law Or perhaps it would be bet
ter to say that failure to enforce the laws against
cuprs in high places makes this condition possible
Everyone has more money than they had few years
ago because the wealth of the country has increased by
leaps and bounds but the who produced this wealth
by the labor of their hands have not received their just
proportion. Juggling and sharp practices hav diverted
the lions share to that odorferous minority of gentry

hundred dollars for every ten that they honestly
Government officials and public men wonder why
there is so much unrest in this country.
Hthey would leave their gilded halls for afew weeks
and get out among the people, eat what they eat sleep
where they sleep, and do they do they would soon
ibibe not only the solution but little common sense
as well. -
A man can only become, mut-1nilonaire by TAX

entitled to much of it. And for every pluocra so Great

The remedy is obvious Place limit upon the amount

TWO MILLION HOUSES WANTED,

Back in 1916 the supply of houses just about kept up
with the demand. Population increasing at the usual
rate of 13 per cent year.
During 1918 everybody was busy winning the

third the usual figure.
January, 1919, found us with these four million
men coming back into civil life, the accumulated demand
of two or three years. came all at once
Three years supply of houses were needed at once.
Instead of having them short 100000 homes that
