THE MEAT QUESTION IS
AN IMPORTANT ONE
The present exorbitant
prices of meat, together with
the reported scarcity of hogs
and cattle, should cause the
farmers of this country some
concern for the future. True,
the scarcity is not so great in
this country as in others, but on
the other hand, our export de
mands are inordinately heavy.
It is estimated that since the
war began there has been a de
crease in the world’s meat pro
ducing animals of 115,000,000
head. This has had its logical
effect.
Taken all around, this coun
try has increased its supply of
meat producing animals; but
as we have stated the demand
on us has also increased man}’
times. Exports of meat from
this country are nearly three
times as large now as during
the period immediately pro
ceeding the war.
It is plainly evident that if
we are to continue to meet the
heavy dem.-nd upon our re
sources we will be compelled
to conserve the sources of sup
ply. In plain words we must
bend our energiees to breedng
mo»-e live stock of all knds.
The feedng season is close at
hand, and the farmers and
stock growers will soon begin
to soi t out the stock that is to
go to the slaughter. In this
sorting care should be taken
that all likely females should
be saved. With the present
high prices the temptation will
be great to let many of them
go. but this temptation shuold
be resisted. Each man should
study for the future, and do his
best to keep up the available
supply. During the past two
or three years many good
breeding animals have been
sacrificed, that, if kept, would
now put their owners on easy
street. All authorities agree
that there is absolutely no dan
ger of prices falling to am
great extent for some years to
come, so that each grower
shuold plan to get the most in
crease possible out of all his
ain mals.
Another ruinous practice
that should be stopped, by
law if necessary, is the practice
of slaughtering very young ani
mals, particularly calves and
lambs. The waste of material
is too great to be counteanced
under present conditions. If
all th calvs, pigs and lambs in
this country are allowed to
grow to maturity it will go a
long way toward remedying
the present great shortage.
But above all things do not
destroy the source of supply—
the females. Intelligent atten
tion to this detail is absolutely
necessary if our meat supply is
to be kept up to the great de
mand that will continue to be
made upon it for some time to
come.

THE FARMER GREATEST
MAN IN THE LAND
Farming is one of a very few
occupations that gives more
jthan it promises. The young
man who selects farming as his
life-work may not accumulate
as much money as he expects,
but if he prepares himself for
his work and makes the prop
er use of his opportunities he
will get more in health, con
tentment and happiness than
he expected. It is true that
many fail to get these, but gen
erally that is because they do
not care for such things and
thus make poor use of their op
portunities to obtain them.
No occupation can advance
the interests of the state and
nation faster than farming
where large crops are profit
ably grown and choice live
stock are raised. It is a busi
ness where no one is injured
because you prosper, but on
the contrary your prosperity
advances all legetimate busi
ness. The production of food
is of paramount importance to
all trades and industries, and
he who produces that which
sustains human life and pro
motes human efficiency is a
true benefactor. The time ha -
come when the producer will
be duly apprecated and he win
be amply repaid for efficient
sendee.
The young man who selects
farming because he sees op
portunities for his talents will
not be disappointed. He will
discover new laws and new
principles and will find plant
life and animal development
full of interest and inspiration
He will not be circumscribed
in his specialty nor limited in
his achievements; the field of
agriculture is broad and its op
portunities unlimited.
The time has come when a
successful farmer is a great
honor to the county and state
in which he lives. He is the
first citizen of the land because
he uses his intelligence to cre
ate wealth, clothe its people
and embellish the earth, bring
the forces of life into action
and thus permit the country to
sustain a vigorous citizenship.
He is the barometer of pros
perity, for upon him must rest
the responsibilities of keeping
American industries busy,
maintaining our balance of for
eign commerce and keeping
our civizilation virile
Two more countries, Peru
and Uruguay, have broken dip
lomatic relations with Ger
many and have aligned them
selves with the Allies. Senti
ment against Germany is rap
idly spreading in all the other
American countries and it be
gins to appear that the entire
two American continents will
soon be arrayed against Ger
many.
The men who are employed
in the various industries of the
country are serving their coun
try as effectively as are those
who have answered the call
to the colors and gone to the
front. Men at the front would
be useless and powerless with
out adequate support from
those left at home. Roth are
of equal value to the nation.—

Three or four candidates
have announced in the papers
in Randolph county, two in
Jackson county and they are
beginning to announce in a
number of other counties. In
dependence county candidates
seem to be a little backward,
as not a one has let his wants
be known.

Many thousands of
women suffering from
womanly trouble, have
been benefited by the use
of Cardui, the woman's
tonic, according to letters
we receive, similar to this
one from Mrs. Z. V. Spell,
ofHayne, N.C. “I could
not stand on my feet, and
just suffered terribly,”
she says. “As my suf
fering was so great, and
he had tried other reme
dies, Dr. - had us
get Cardui. . . I began
improving, and it cured
me. 1 know, and my
doctor knows, what Car
dui did for me, for my
nerves and health were
about gone.”

i
She writes further: " I
am in splendid health . . .
can do my work. I feel I
owe it to Cardui, for I was
in dreadful condition.”
If you are nervous, run
down and weak, or suffer
from headache, backache,
etc., every month, try
Cardui. Thousands oi
women praise this medi
cine for the good it has
done them, and many
physicians who have used
Cardui successfully with
their women patients, for
years, endorse this medi
cine. Think w hat it means
to be in splendid health,
like Mrs. Spell. Give
Cardui a trial.
