Food Administrator Hoover has is
sued a timely warning to all Ameri-
cans, but it is especially instructive
to those who imagine u diet of meat

Is necessary.
He finds that while the United
States actually increased its cattle to
the extent of 7,000,000 head since the
great war began, there has been u
net decrease in the world's cattle
supply in that time of 28,000,000.
,!n hogs, our increase has been (5,-
275,000 whole the world's net de-
crease is over 32,000,0Q0.
In sheep, owing probably to the
breaking up of big western ranches,
>ve have decreased 3.000,000, and the
est of the world 51,500,000.
From these facts and figures Mr.
Hoover foresees a high range in 1 "" wuroca lowaru a.
prices of meat and animal products i ver8'ty of Oklahoma, 1917
for many years to come. P *«ell Baxter, B, L., A. B
But ' conditions are not hopeless.
Despite the fact that our meat ex-
ports increased from neatly 500,000,-
000- pounds a year before the war to
1,339,193,000 pounds for the year end-
ing June 30, 1910. our total cattle and
hogs increased in number, as prev-
iously showji. This was due to more
attention being paid to livestock rais-
ing by farmers as a result of
prices.
There is no prospect in the de-
crease of the livestock supply in this
:ountry. But rather the contrary
