SEEKS FOE OF JAP BEETLE
Bring to This Country Enemy Of
Horticultural Pest.

The japanese beetle is going to have
its old enemies on its trail In this
country. The United States depart
ment of agriculture has sent man to
Japan to find those enemies and send
them across the ocean. They will
then be established In the sections Of
New Jersey where the beetle has
gained a foothold, and they are ex-
pected to aid greatly in the control Of
the pest.
The agent employed in Japan Is
familiar with japanese conditions and
is specialist in this kind Of work. 1t
is expected that the task will require
his sojourn in Japan for two or three
years. While something Is known Of
the parasites of the japanese beetle
a great deal is still to be learned only
under field conditions where the
beetle lives with all the enemies that
prey upon it The beetle reached this
country with impOrtations' Of green
house plants. and thus far apparently
has been comparatively free from mo-
lestations by natural enemies.

ALLIES SEND SHARP
WARNING TO BERLIN
WILL INFORM GERMANS THAT
THEY MUST OBSERVE
THE TREATY.
Lloyd George Suggests Economic Pres
sure, Deriving Germany Of Food
and Raw Material Should
She Continue Negligent.

San RemO.-The interallied supreme
council began it's formal sessions on
April 10. in the Villa Devauchan, on
the hills to the northwest Of the main
town.
While the Turkish question was on
the program for first consideration by
the conference, it developed that there
already had been discussion over the
question of enforcing the execution Of
the treaty of peace with Germany.
Premiers Mllerand, Nitti and Lloyd
George, after their meeting with For
eign Minister ScialOia of Italy, Philippe
Berthelot, political director of the
French foreign office; Earl CurzOn.
British foreign minister, and numer-
Gus secretaries at the Villa Devauchau,
met again late in the afternoon at Pre-
mier Nitti's hotel.
They were agreed without mo-
ment's discussion that Germany should
be told in the most positive manner
! that she must observe the treaty.
Premier Lloyd George suggested eco
nOmic pressure, depriving Germany OF
food, raw materials and intercourse
with the the allied countries should
she continue negligent. Premier Mil
lerand is described as having said thai
such pressure, without the use of ma
val or military aid, would in effect be
no pressure at all. The only warn
ing that would be respected, the onl!
pressure that would be effective HI
asserted, would be force-the applica
ton of such force as the military ant
naval advisers might deem sufficient
Premier Lloyd George, it is said, re
sisted this conclusion. Premier Nit
inclined toward the British prime min
listers view, and the matter reste'
there for the present.
The Turkish treaty was approved b.
the council in the general form i
which it was drawn. Changes wer
made in two points. 1t was decide
to request Turkish plenipOtentiarie
to present themselves in London Ma

any recent year except 1917.
Horses Slaughtered for Meat.
As a sign of the times it is Of inter-
est to note the federal inspection Of
horse slaughter, which began in Sep
TENDER, 1919. Up to the end Of the
year 433 horses were so slaughtered,
and about one-half Of the resulting
meat was certified for export.
There had been no previous federal
supervision Of horse slaughter since
1903. At that time inspection was
limited to single establishment
which had been in operation for sew
eral years. The inspection was neces-
sary, as in the present case. to permit
of cOnsignments being made interstate
and for export.
The consumption OF horse meat is
not uncommon in certain parts Of con-
tinental Europe, and was In vogue
long before the late war. The fact
that horses are slaughtered in nom
federally inspected establishments in
the United States is perhaps not SO
we'll known. Inspectors Of the bureau
of animal industry reported in 1918
that horses were being so slaughtered
at six widely separated places stu
ated In the East and Middle West and
on the Pacific coast. The output Of
these places aggregated about 1000
or more carcasses annually. As to
the consumption Of this horseflesh. 1t
is known, of course, that geological
gardens, menageries, ETC.. account for
a large part Of it for the feeding Of
fieSh-eating animals.

large as to bring down the total meat
production per cent lower than in
1918, in spite Of the fact that produc-
ton increased greatly in pork and con-
siderably in mutton and lamb and
veal.
Exports of pork and lard in 1919
were unparalleled. The exports were
equivalent to 100000 hogs weighing
200 pounds each. A million more hogs
were slaughtered than in 1918. Do.
nestle consumption of lard declined to
the extent Of two pounds per person.
The slaughter of calves in 1919 was
greater than ever before, $50, 900
head more than in 1918. The drought
n the West is ascribed as one Of the
main causes Of so many calves being
marketed. Veal is not exported and
domestic consumption increased about
one pound per person.
Twenty per cent more mutton and
lamb meat were produced in 1915
than in 1918, but the consumption OF
mutton and lamb is so small that the
increase meant only one pound per
person. This source Of meat supply
which decreased steadily for many
years. has been on the upward trend
since 1917.
These facts are given by the bureau
Of animal industry, United States de
partment of agriculture, in its annua

The outstanding features of the meal
situation during 1919 were heavy de
cline in beef slaughter with CORE
spending loss In beef exports, and {
great increase in the exports Of porl
products, although the swine slaughte
was only slightly larger than the previ
Gus year.
The slump in beef was to some ex

Pork and Lard Exports Unparalleled
Exports of pork and lard in 1911
were unparalleled in the history of GU

amounted to 1897, 19S.OOO pounds o
pork (mostly bacon and hams) an,

consumption during 1919, amounting
to two pounds a person, but there was
also relatively large increase in the
consumption of mutton and lamb. As
a whole, however, the fundamental
reason for the decreased meat con-
sumption in 1919 may likely be found
in the high retail prices which pre-
vailed throughout the greater part of
the year.
Cattle Slaughter Fell "a Per Cent.
About 100000 fewer beeves were
slaughtered last year than in 1918. It
is estimated that the cattle yielded
6,571, $4,000 pounds in 1918. which is
a decrease Of IA per cent. The lowest
yield in the last six years was $685.
565yOOO pounds in 1914, after which
there was a gradual rise each year,
eliminating in the big record Of 1918.
Last years total goes back to slightly
below that Of 1917. Approximately
three-fourths Of the cattle slaughter Is
now conducted under government in
spection.
Home consumption of beef de-
creased III per cent in 1919.
Veal Production Increased.
In sharp contrast with cattle the
slaughter of calves in 1919 was great
er than ever before. The drought in
the West is ascribed as one Of the
main causes Of the increased market
ings. In round figures 100000 calves
are estimated to have been marketed
last year, which is 1.250.O0O more than
1918 and represents an increase Of II
per cent.
AS no exports or imports Of veal are
recorded, the consumption follows the
production, and increased from to 8
pounds head of the population.
Increase In Mutton and Lamb.
Sheep and lamb slaughter reached
the low point in 1917. About 1,25O,OOO
head more were marketed in 1918. and
last year there was a further increase
Of more than 100000 head. The in
creased yield in meat in 1919 amount
ed to 1O8, 4S6 900 pounds and was Z
gain of 20 per cent, but the cOnsump'
ton of mutton and lamb is SO small
compared with pork and beef that the
increase meant only one pound per
! son of the population. The trend, how
ever, is upward.
Pork Sill Plentiful.
A million more hogs were slaugh
tered last year than in 1918 and Ii.
100000 more than in 1917, and al
} though 100000 more hogs were mar
z keted in the record year Of 1916, theil
, average weight was 13 pounds les'
5 head, so that 1919 stands easily frs
in pork production. This year.
D slaughter yielded the enormous tota
of 9,269, $4,000 pounds Of pork and 2,
9 1922 pounds of lard
The record-breaking exports absorb
t ed 2O5 per cent of the pork and 3
