IT. S. FINANCES
IN SAFE HANDS
B. C. Biggerstaff Optimistic
After Eastern Conferences.

Financial affairs of the nation are in
safe hands, declared B. c. Biggerstaff,
editor of the Daily Drovers Telegram OF
Kansas City, while in INDIANAPOLIS to-
day, on his return from conferences with
Boston, New York. Philadelphia and
Wisconsin bankers.
Il have never seen such concerted and
dispassionate handling of the financial
and industrial situation" he said.
Under such conditions we can hope for
the best. and already there is trend
toward a relaxation of the tenseness that
has been so marked for some time. f. B.
Clare Avery, assistant to President Still
man of the National City bank of New
York City, told me that the peak of the
crisis has been passed. President Ripley
of the Merchants National bank of Boston
and President William Law of the First
National bank of Philadelphia are each
optimistic of a turn for the better.
THE west has immense production of
farm crops, but it needs box cars to move
its grain and hay products We need
money badly in the west and southwest.
as our assets and collateral have been
frozen up for some time, and If we could
secure closed car equipment to move our
wheat and other grains we would have
more money to operate on and the east
would be securing the supplies Of food
materials that it needs very badly.
1--WE are alarmingly short of beef an
imals in the west and southwest, and
great deal Of grazing land grass is going
TO waste.
Severe winter weather in the early
spring months two seasons ago con-
tributed to the shortage by the heavy
mortality that came In cows and calves.
CORN MAKES UP
FOR LATE START.
Nature has been kind to the farmers
of the west and southwest this year.
Corn was cared for with the minimum of
labor in a dry June. and made a late
start good by a good growth. The dry
June favored the harvesting of immense
nay crops, alfalfa, red clover and wild
hays.
Our wheat crop in Kansas, Missouri,
Oklahoma and Texas is immense.
The most severe phase of the fnan-
cial situation in the west. aside from
assets and collateral being frozen up, is
the fact that cattle raisers are unable to
secure funds to replete their breeding
herds
This will be felt very keenly for the
next three years in a very marked de-
crease In the beef cattle supplies Of the
country. Western operators also are
complaining of the cost OF the little cap
ital they can hire at this time. But the
west Is learning one lesson. II must be-
come more provident, and must cease to
rely on the east for such financial sup
plies as It has been accustomed TO In

HowtoLowerYou Meat Bills
Hints From the Department Of
Justice
Justice

encourage purchasing the cheaper
lamb cuts instead of merely a few
chops at time. A shoulder OF iamo'
being smaller than the average beef
Joint and less expensive, should ap-
peal especially to small families.
TIE marketing expeditions should
be an education in economy.
1t usually pays 10 shop before you
buy.
1t usually pays to do your marketing
personally rather than telephone your
order.
Lamb steaks and lamb chops take
but a few moments To cook, but they
are the most expensive cuts. AS Ii
lamb is not all chops and steaks. other
and less expensive parts of the animal
must be used and can be made into
tasty dishes. Breast of lamb con-
tains more meat than bone. yet il often
sells for half the price of pork spare
ribs. and some retailers on account OF
limited demand for the fOre-Quarter
cuts find il necessary TO convert these
cheaper cuts into sausage in order 10
sell them at all.
Lamb is q somewhat seasOnable
meat, by far the greater part OF live
lambs reaching the market during the
latter half of the year. In the spring
around Easter time, lamb may be as
high or higher than other meats. In
the fall and early winter 1t is nearly
always much cheaper.
The following average prices COM
piled by the National Wool Growers
association from representative re-
tailers throughout the country show
comparative levels of the different
| meats II the fall season as they oc-
Cured i'm the middle Of October. 1919.
These figures are not applicable now,
except that they emphasize a typical

These prices were for the best-qual-

Even though he did not close with
Durant, Porporato feels deeply in
debted to the American for ks in
terest and likewise he is grateful 10
the American press for having made
il possible TO secure the backing that
he needed.
Without the American newspapers,
he says, he would probably still be
languishing in. obscurity. and his
chance 10 figure in the next India
napoiis contest would have been lost.
Porporato is considered among the
foremost of European drivers. and is
a clever engineer and designer as
we'll. The steel steeds that he is pre-
pairing for the Hoosier International
are said to be OF an entirely new and
novel type. embodying several princi-
pies of construction distinctly in ad-
vance OF anything that has ever aP-
peared OH the Hoosier race course.
and his workouts for the big race
will consequently be observed with
more than usual interest by the gall
lery OF race followers in attendance.

This is DR. Carleton b. McCulloch,
successful business man, physician,
soldier AID inexperienced politician.
In medicine he has reached the top
OF his profession. Since entering the
practice In 1895 he has achieved ma.
tional recognition. For fifteen years
he has been medical director of the
State Life Insurance Company.
In business Dr. McCullOch showed
his keen foresight and ability when he
undertook the development Of the
North Meridian street business dis
trict. commonly known as auto roy."
DIR McCullochs enterprise made this
project highly successful. His bust
ness integrity snd ability are recog-
nized by Indianapolis financial inter
ests.

WHY HE WANTS TO BE GOVERNOR

in patience with the hap-hazard and
costly manner the states business
generally is conducted; and his de-
sire to restore to the people the pow
er which has been centralized at the
State House, especially under the
operation of the present tax and road
laws.
Dr. McCulloch is bit old-flshioned
in his ideas. He wants the governor
ship because he values the honor
most highly, and because he Graves
the opportunity to put the state gov
ernment on sound business basis.
1t would be a genuine satisfaction to
him to do so.
Those who know him best are will
ing to vouch both for DR.. McCulloch's
sound judgment and his ability and
determination TO put into effect the
prin ciples for which he stands.
His Platform.
Dr.. McCulloch is not a faddist.
Throughout his campaign he has
studiOusly avoided promises of reform
which he might not be able to fulfill
because of their impracticability.
These planks are prominent in his
platform:
Repeal of the present tax law and
substitution of a system, fair and just
to every citizen.
Road legislation which will provide
the best highways at the least cost.
Restoration of our educational,
benevolent and penal institutions to
their old time efficiency.
Adequate salaries for teachers and
other educational workers.
Restoration to townships, towns
and counties of the right to govern
their own financial affairs.
Exact justice to worker, farmer and
business man.
| Not a Politician.
At the political game DIR. McCulloch
Is a novice. Although he has always
been a staunch and active Democrat,
il has been matter of principle and
not selfish interest with him.
Shrewd observers of the public mind
are inclined to believe however, thai
DIR. McCulloch's political inexperi-
ence may be "a great asset to him.
They opine that the public is bit
weary of politics, and would welcome
an opportunity to put a successful
business man at the head of the
state government.
DIR. NcCulloch is in IT, prime
OF life-more active by far than many
men twenty years his Junior He was
born in 1871, in Wisconsin, and came
to Indiana with his parents in 1878.
His father. Oscar c.. McCulloch, was
one of Indiana's most eminent min
listers and charity workers. After his
graduation from high school, DR.. Nc
Culloch continued his education al
Rose Polytechnic Institute. Terre
Haute. and later studied medicine in
Chicago. lie was graduated in lS95
DR.. McCulloch and work have always
been on intimate terms. Even as d
young man he worked in furniture
fact ory and later as a machiEist in
the Atlas Engine works.
Although not a politician. Or. Nc
Cull loch has always been an earneSt
and active Democrat. The doctrines
of Thomas jefferson are quite gooC
enough for him.

HOUSEWIVES BUY LAMB AND
MUTTON UNWISEUY.

The Eat More Lamb campaign which
is being conducted throughout the
country at the present time before col
leges, domestic science schools, wOm-
ems clubs, various institutions, public
schools, meat markets. ETC., has
brought before the general public the
value of lamb as food product, but
especially has it demonstrated the
value and economy of the cheaper cuts
of lamb which have been neglected. 1t
has been q contention of the retailer
for years that a great part of the
fore quarter-the neck, shoulder,
shank and breast-must be sold at a
loss or eventually reach the scrap or
bone box.
Some retail butchers bone out these
cheap fore-Quarter cuts, put them
through the meat grinder, season them
and mold them up into lamb patties,
putting a strip of bacon around each
one. leave them in the cooler over
night and sell all of them next day at
good prices. Many butchers could sell
more than they can supply. The butch
er has thus turned into an asset or
profitmaker that portion which has
heretofore been considered loss.
Steaks and roaSts can be had from
the shoulder. lamb rolls from the neck,
breast and shoulder, and neck slices
are obtained by cutting the neck In
sections crosswise, so that the meat has
the appearance of chops and is very
inviting dish when used as a stew or
potted lamb en- casserole. The cheap
er cuts of lamb are made from the
breast. shoulder, shank and neck
which combined are about Is per cent
of the lamb.
Lamb is a healthful food for all peO-
ple. 1t is very nutritious, wholesome
and palatable and in calOric value it is
equal or superior to any other meat.
The boned and rolled shoulder men
toned above is used for ROASTING pur-
poses; it can also be cut to any de-
sired weight or can be sliced into
Saratoga chops.
United States government statistics
tell us that each year the average
housewife buys for every person in
her household only about pounds of
lamb as compared with about Il
pounds of pork and 81 pounds of beef
If all American families used lamb
one day q week it would mean more
than 20 pounds of lamb annually per
capita, or four times the present CON
sumption.
