feed lot than was formerly the case
when steers were carried four or five
seasons on grass.
Situation Not Serious.
While the total number of cattle in
the country has decreased in recent
years, the situation Is not as serious
as might appear. since the number of
cattle is greater now than in any year
from 1896 to 1917. The census figures
tor 1900 and 1920 show that there has
been an increase in the percentages of
beef calves, heifers, cows and bulls,
end a decrease in the percentage of
steers, especially aged steers. The
number Of cattle in the country In
creased 100000 from 1914 to 1919.
During the last three years there has
been decrease of 100000 head, but
the greater proportion of cows at pres
ent makes it possible to grow more
beef, especially if more of the calves,
instead of being slaughtered, are fed
out as yearlings.
That the country can readily respond
to a quickened demand for beef
was demonstrated during the war
when production was so stimulated
that during 1917 and 1913 combined
more than 1,000,000,0OO pounds of beef
were exported, which was per cent
Of our production and % per cent of
the exports of the world during that
period. Since about 1905 South Amer
lea and Australia have been the chief
sources of surplus beef.
Americans are eating less beef per
capita than formerly, but the figures
show that when demand and prices
provide sufficient stimulus the supply
can be increased at a surprisingly
rapid rate. The consumption of beef
and veal in the United States de-
creased from 81 pounds per person
in 1907 to so pounds in 1915, a net
variation of % pounds. Between the
periods of 1907 to 1910 and 1911 to 1921
there has been a decrease in consump-
ton amounting to approximately 20
per cent.
The article contains interesting in
formation on the variations in demand
for different kinds of beef in various
cities and in the different sections of
the country. High-class hotels in the
larger cities want prime, fat and fin
ished beef, while the average house
wife wants beef involving less waste.
In warm weather the principal de-
mand is for steak and chops, while
the >Tinter trade demands more roasts
and boiling beef. The orthodox Jewish
trade uses only the forequarters, while
Gentiles. as a rule, prefer hindquar-
ter beef.

JANET

JANET, sometimes spelled Janette,
j bears no relationship to Jane,
paradoxical as it may seem. As early
as the Thirteenth century, Geneta APP
peared as feminine proper name,
long before Jane. Joan, or Johanna
were known to us. In the Fourteenth
and Fifteenth centuries, Gennet made
her appearance and by process of
evolution there came Janeta, Ja-
nette and finally Janet, though the
latter is by far the most modern form
of the name.
History, which records fnnumerable
instances of Janet and her derivatives
being used with extreme popularity
in those early times, likewise chroni-
cles the amusing and almost. unbe-
lievable story of one Willelmus
Richardson and his wife Christiana
who had family of eighteen children
and became so destitute for names for
this extraordinary brood that they had
two Johannes. two WiIlelmuses, two
Christmas, and three Janets. Strange
to relate, this was not an unusual Gus
tom of duplication in those days.
Genida was an old Frankish form
of Janet which was exceedingly pOpu-

MEATSCRAP AID FOR LAYERS
Kentucky Experiment Station Obtains
Big Increase i'm Production
of Eggs.

For three years the Kentucky ex-
pertinent station has been studying
the effect of feeding various amounts
of meatscraps on the egg production
of white Wyandottes. The average
annual egg production when per
cent of the ration consisted of scraps
was 1923 eggs; when it consisted of
ID per cent, 134.5 eggs: and when 20
per cent of scraps were fed. 141.6

From the results the station CON
cludes thats the mash mixture should
contain at least 20 per cent meatscrap
to secure maximum production.

FOX TAKES A SWIM

MIR. FOX wanted some honey to
eat with his hot cakes, bet he
did not want to go hunting for it and
he did not want to ask Mr.. Bear for
some of his, or where TO get any, be-
cause Mr.. Fox and Mr.. Bear were not

then.
Mr.. Fox had told Mr. Bear one night

And there was a trap there, but Mr.

the forming of republican state clubs
in the District of Columbia, and to
bring into social and fraternal rela-
can state clubs in this city, with the
view of promoting, by united and
enthusiastic effort, the cause of re-
publicanism.
Purposes Given Approval.
The large growth in it's membership
and the development of it's interest
in all republican activities is looked
upon by it's officers as proof Of the
fact that the citizens of the states
residing here approve of it's endeavors
and it's purposes.
No effort has been made to control
the individual preferences with re-
gard to different candidates for the
same federal Office. Patriotic inter-
est in and devotion to the civic well
one as especially animating the spirit
of the organization, which, it is be-
lieved by its members. can best be
served by strict adherence to those
principles of government adminis-
tratfon advocated by the republican
party and its leaders and statesmen.

years of existence it has confined its
activities to getting out the state

something in the neighborhood OF
$4,000 voters temporarily residing
here. 1t is known fact that the
membership of the league was re-
sponsible for many of these men and
women either returning to their
home states to cast their ballots for
Mr.. Harding and Mr.. Coolidge, or
else sending the same by mail, il the
laws of their respective states per-
mitted this.
Organized by Few.
The league was organized by
small group Of loyal republicans.
among whom are w. e. Connor Of
New York, Charles NJ. Shinn Of West
Virginia and Gus A. Schuldt OF this
city. The latter was elected record
ing secretary at the first meeting and
has served in that capacity up to the
present day. Throughout its long ex-
istence the greater part of its mem
bership has been drawn from the
government departments. Many of
them have been living in Washington
for more than decade, but have.
during all this time, maintained their
legal residence in the home state
Some OF the primary objects Of the
league have been to promote interest
on the part of it's members and others

his car collided with a Ford Sc
dan, driven by Mr.. Reitz, of Balti-
more. Mr.. Rooms car contained Mr..
George Ii. Brine, Mrs. Hessie Amman
and MIR. Rooms and a load of dry
goods. Mr.. Rooms car had the bumper
torn off. the fender bent and other
slight injuries, while the Ford got the
worst, as Mr.. Ford is no match for
large Standard s. No one was hurt
only badly scared. Mr.. Rooms settled
with Mr.. Reitz without a trial, and
continued on his homeward way.
On the same day Z. NJ. Dutterer
had similar experience while he and
Howard Baker were returning home
from Harrisburg, with Baker at the
wheel of Dutterer's car. He cut the
corner off instead of circling the
square like he should, and collided
with another car coming toward them.
They were slightly injured. Dutterer
settled with the other fellow, without
any counting. Both parties were lucky
to get off with so little cost and with
out anyone getting hurt.

got busy at once on the telephone, but
up until the present time, the kind

going. and had several hours start.
We suppose he will keep going, much
