LIMIT TO BE PUT ON BEEFW
Brewery Output Will Be Cut to Save
Barley Prisoners Used on Farms
Meat Is Plentiful Cut Down
on Cake.
By OSWALD F. SCHUETTE.
Col respondent of tho Chicago News.
Berlin. Germany's official conserva
tion of her bread and grain supplies
is not regarded hero as a promlso of
(amino. It Is only tin cplsodo in tho
nil inclusive caro with which tho Ger
man government controls tho prlco of
eggs in Berlin with ono hand and
with tho other fights against eight na
tions in arms. For Germany's food
supply is, according to all availablo
statistics, more than lnrgo enough to
feed her GS.OOO.OOO until the summer
harvest, oven without Importations.
It wns only under tho abnormal con
ditions created by the war that tho
government found any danger that tho
grain supplies would run short. Of
every other item, practically, In the
national bill of faro there seems to be
a surplus, particularly of meat. But
bread is such an important item in tho
lifo of this nation that its conservation
becomes necessary.
Tho allowance which has been made
of nino kilograms (approximately 20
pounds) to an individual each month
is certainly a most liberal one. There
aro probably few families of live per
sons in America that ' conBumo 100
pounds of bread or flour a month.
Meat Supply Is Abundant.
As far as tho other food supplies are
concerned, the most important feature
lies in the abundance of meat, for
years tho German empire has done all
in Its power to encouragb tho increase
of animals on farms. Tho result is
that at this timo the cattlo total is,
approximately, 22,000,000, while tho
number of hogs has reached a total of
25,000,000. In fact, It is this relative
ly large number of farm animals that
has been tho greatest peril to tho suf
ficiency of tho grain supplies. There
fore, the farmers are being ordered to
slaughter the hogs particularly, and
to convert them, as far as possible,
Into smoked meat, which will bo avail
ablo for future use, without, in tho
meantime, eating any deeper into the
national bread basket.
Two interesting items contributed
to making radical step3 necessary at
this tlmb. The first was tho fact that
tho government prohibition against
feeding grain to cattlo and hogs has
proved almost impossible of enforce
ment. Tho government authorities de
clared that the larger agriculturists
obeyed, but tho small farmers insist
ed on regarding their cattlo as house
hold pets. Against this even tho Iron
hand of tho German government was
powerless.
Tho other item that contributed to
compelling action at this timo was
tho changed condition brought about
by tho sending of millions of men
from tho city to tho front. This turned
mo nanaung or tno Household treas
ure completely over to tho wives. It
must bo stated parenthetically that In
Germany this is not as customary as
in America. Tho government author
ities say that as a result there has
been a great Increase in tho consump
tion of bread and othor flour products
and n decrease in tho consumptiorTof
meat and similar food.
They say that this came because
tho soldiers sent homo virtually all
tholr meager pay. But to this waB
added tho additional subsistence pro
vided by both government and mu
nicipality. They found that with this
tiro housewifo discovered it was pos
sible to eat a meal or two a day in tho
thousand and ono cafes that dot every
big city until the consumption of flour
began to soar at a surprising rato.
Never So Much Cake Eaten.
Tho government officials tell you,
witli seriousness which demonstrates'
t least tholr conviction, that never" In
tho history or Germany has so much
cako been consumed as in this win
tor. In fact, they rofer to theso cafes
and bakeries as tho "internal eno-J
mies" of tho empire. When tho war
broke out tho pig that Insisted on eat
ing grain had this distinction, but
since then his slaughter has been de
creed. Another restriction is in immediate
prosppct. This concerns tho amount
of beer to bo produced by the brewer
ies. For the breweries aro great con
sumers of barley. Barley is needed,
not for human consumption, but to
feed farm animals. And the govern
ment lias determined that food for
farm animals is far more important
than Deer for human beings.
From a food standpoint Germany's
salvation really lies In tho enormous
supply of potatoes furnished by last
year's crip. Exact statistics aro not
available, but tho government consid
ers, tho potnto production as Inex
haustible. For this reason potatoes
aro being used In bread and in every
posslblo form for human and animal
food. Tho surplus of sugar beet also

ner. Big Crops Expected This Year.
As far as' tho crops of 1915 are con
cerned, tho government looks forwnrd
with confidence to a larger harvest
than that of 1913. Tho acreage sowed
to winter wheat and rye is up to last
year's figures. There had been somo
fear that sending millions of men to
tho front would so denude tho farms
that planting would bo hold back. But
nature was most generous, with balmy
fall weather, which lasted almost un
til Christmas. This made It possible
for tho .decreased farm population to
.finish its work.
In addition there is promised an in
creased acreage in spring planting.
The rights of way along tho railroads
throughout tho empiro are to bo
planted,, as far as possible, in pota
toes. Theso will bo planted nt the
cost of tho railroads and turned over
to the employees for their personal
use.
Large areas of private domains
which have not been cultivated will bo
used this year. On tho famous Lueno
burger Heath cxtenslvo operations are
to bo undertaken to raako the Innd
arable.
Prisoners to Be Cultivators.
For this purpose prisoners of war
aro to be used. In thoamo way Rus
sianprisoners on tho eastern frontier
will be pressed into service to in
crease production there. Thoy woro
used to some extent last fall to
harvest tho potato crop. In France
and Belgium tho Gorman soldiers
have been helping to plant crops.
Probably tho moat interesting fea
tures of this problem of food conserva
tion are the arrangements that have
beon made with reference to tho grain
supply. Last fall tho imperial govern
ment, the cities of the empiro with
moro than 100,000 population and
some of the larger industrial organi
zations subscribed a capital of $13,
000,000 to buy up grain supplies. It
was the Intention of tho government
to lay asido sufficient grain to carry
tho nation from May 15 to the next
harvest.
By careful financiering in tho way
of loans on grain bought to make pos
sible further purchases, this organiza
tion has accumulated approximately
3,000,000 tons of wheat and rye. This,
it is figured, would havo carried tho
nation to tho harvest with a surplus of
10 per cent. However, when it was
found that tho present consumption
Increased too rapidly tho government
decided on its order of January under
which all of tho grain and flour sup
pllesf tho empiro aro put Into tho
handsof this organization.
Communities Direct Distribution.
It will pay for supplies at tho "max
imum prlco" fixed by tho government
Inst fall for grain transactions. It
will then allot to each community an
amount equivalent to 20 pounds a per
son and tho community government
will be intrusted with Its individual
distribution. Tho communities must
pay in tho internal organization tho
cost prlco, plus interest and nulling,
A special premium of 10 per cent ro
bato is provided on the amounts saved
by communities out of their allow
ances. Certain important restrictions huve
been imposed by tho government up
on tho community distribution. All
wheat bread must contain jit least 20
per cent of ryo Hour. All ryo brend
must contain at least 10 per cent of
potatoes. No cako is to bo baked that
contains moro than 10 per cent of
flour. I am not enough of a culinary
export to say what kind of cako this
will make.
In addition tho communities have
bones to be cooked free of charge.
Two hundred workrooms whoro wom
en thrown out of work by war uro
able to earn their living are also
maintained by tho commission.
Besides theso enterprises tho com
mittee Is running an employment
agency for tho benefit of tho 5,000,
000 Belgian and French refugees and
distributing individual relict in all
cases that aro not provided for by tho
regular government allowance.
Tho commission presided over by
M, Paul Appell, dean of tho faculty
RESULTS FATALLY
the authority entirely to forbid tha
baking of cake or of wheat bread and
to fix- standard prices for ryo bread,
with even greater percentages of pota
toes.. Thoy may also fix maximum
prices for tho sale of brcud.
The decrease in the bread produc
tion as a result of the now restriction
is about 25 per cent. This, of course,
has meant a corresponding decroase
in tho business of tho bakers. There
upon somo of tho latter raised the
price. Ittwas to chock this that power
was given tho communities to set max
imum prices.
Labor Unions Pledge Support.
All the labor unions of tho empiro
havo pledged thoir support to tho gov
ernment plan and nro helping in its
enforcement. Tho same Is true of tha
agricultural organizations. Wherever
there has been opposition tho govern
ment has mado short work of It. In
Chemnitz, for instance, tho mayor
called n "meeting of tho bakers for Sat
urday night. Almost all of tticm sent
as an excuse for their nbsence tha
fact thai it waB tholr cako-baking
night.1
"There will bo no moro cake in
Chcmnkr," said the mayor, and the
decree was Issued.
Now the bakers can take Saturday
niglits off and there will ' be no fur
ther difficulty about attending the
mayor's meetings.
Special appeals are being made to
housewives to help in tho conserva
tion of the food supplies. In Dcrlin
a series of classes has been arranged
by tho government to instruct speak
ers who are to lecture on this Import
ant problem.
Appeal Made to School Children.
Even tho school children are being
urged to help. In Schoeneberg, for
instance, tho following appeal was
mado to the patriotism of the chll
dren In all the schools:
"Wo ask your help in bringing this
terrible war, in which your fathers
and brothers are now fighting, to an
ond. As our enemies nro unabloto
conquer us with tlio sword, it is their
ovil Intention to try to starve us out
and for this reason thoy have cut off
our supplies. We aro going to frus
trate their despicable intention and
you must help us by conscientiously
following this advice:
"1. Ask your parents to buy only
'krlegsbrot' (wnr bread). It tastes as
good and is just ns digestible as tho
other.
"2. Instead of white bread eat the
abovo mentioned 'krlegsbrot.' Wo may
possibly become short of wheat, and,
theroforo, we wish to limit tho uso of
flour as much as posslblo.
Urged to Eat t.lttle Cake.
"3. As long ns tho war lasts eat
very Httlo or no cako. In making
those small sacrifices you are helping
ycur fatherland. You can cat ns much
sugar and confectionery as your par
ents allow.
"4. Ask your mother to cook pota
toes in their Jackets. As lierlln chil
dren you will know that thoy are very
good cooked in this manner.
"5. Especially you muBt bo very sav
ing with all foodstuffs, old dry bread,
etc.
"C. Don't take more lunch than you
can eat to school with you. If you
havo too much, then glvo It to n friend
or take it homo with you."
All of which means that tho civil
population of Germany is living prac
tically on the samo "kommisbrot"
which serves ns tho ration of tho sol
dier in tho field. It seemod strnngo
at first to miss tho dellciouu Httlo

NO WHO TAX ON
Untruthful Reports Circulated by
Interested Parties.
Defaming a neighbor at tho oxpenso
of tho truth does not help thoso who are
guilty of tho practice and It mny bo
said that thoso spreading falso ro
ports about Canadian' lands, In tho
hopo that thoy may secure customers
for their own, will certainly fail of
their purpose. Falso statements so
maliciously circulated will sooner or
lator bo disproved. And, as in tho
caso of tho lauds of Western Canada,
tho fertility of which Is now so well
known to people of every stato In tho
Unltod States, tho folly of this work
shows an exceeding short sighted
ncss on the part of those guilty of tho
practice.
Tho present war has given somo of
theso people tho opportunity to exer
cise tholr art, but In doing it they aro
only arousing tho curiosity of thoso
who read tho statements and a trifling
investigation will only reveal tholr un
truthfulness. A very foolish statement has re
cently appeared in a number of pa
pers, rending in part as follows:
"It Is believed that as a result of tho
war tax on land Imposed by tho Cana
dian Government a number of former
Dakota farmers who wont to tho Brit
ish Northwest will bo compelled to re
turn to tho United States. Informa
tion has been received that the tax
will amount to about $500 for each
farm of 160 acres, which In tho case
of many of tho 'former residents of the
two Dakotas would practically amount
to confiscation."
To show that tho. public has doubt
ed, (hundreds of Inquiries havo beon
mado the Government at Ottawa,
Canada, only to bring out tho most em
phatic denial. A full-fledged Ho of this
kind has, of course, only a short life,
and will tell In tho end against those
who forgo It and spread it, but, as a
Winnipeg paper points out, it Is most
complimentary to tho agricultural pos
sibilities ot Western Canada to find
that rival farming propositions need
audacious mendacity of this descrip
tion to help them.
What Is tho truth? Tho Saskatche
wan Government has authorized a levy
of $10 por quarter section on unculti
vated lands owned by non-residents.
Tho Alberta Government has Imposed
a Provincial tax of 10 mills on tho as
sessed valuo ot all uncultivated lands.
There are some Bpeclal applications ot
theso taxes, but tho main provisions
aro as abovo. Thoso vacant lands
hold by non-residents in Western Can
ada form a gravo problem. Thoy aro
making for poor communities, poor
schools and poor social and economic
conditions generally. By having them
cultivated tno owners as well as tho
districts In which thoy nro located
will benefit alike. It Is for this reason
that tho Government has rocently
asked tho co-operation of tho non-resi
dents. Tho high prlco of grain for
somo years to como, and the general
splendid character of Western Canada
land will mako tho question well
worth consideration. Advertisement.
