SOUTH OMAHA LIVE STOCK
EXCHANGE ENCOURAGES IN
CREASED PRODUCTION
All Men Cannot Join the Army and Fight in the Trenches, but Every
Man Can Do His Bit by Increasing the Pood Supply
to Feed the Men Who Must Fight
The South Omaha Live Stock Exchange taken a hand in the prop
osilion to increase the production of food in a vei v prattles way In
recent years, stockmen, ranchmen and feeders have' found it profita
ble to market "baby beeves" and young hogs. Of course, sending
their stock to the packing houses before it was matured resulted in I
mailer amount of food being produced than would have been secur
ed had the stock been held longer.
While possibly the percentage of profits to stock growers and
feeders would continue to be larger by marketing their stock voung
as a matter of patriotism, they ought to give close attention "to the
Buggestions made in the following resolutions adopted bv the South
Omaha Live Stock Exchange, at a special meeting held 'the 1.1th of
this month i

Eroducts, including meat., in this country, and as the present war is

all Kinds, and a shortage of meat would work a serious hardship on
the welfare of our country, therefore,

Chalmers Sensational Run
Sets New Motor Car Standard
A Chalmers on March 26-27 set a nev high mark in motor car history. On
that date was established a standard in city traffic performance that promises
to endure. To cover 586.8 miles through dense Chicago traffic in 24 hours is
no mean feat. To do it with a stock 7-passenger touring car, carrying 4 pas
sengers, on high gear only, without motor stop, and making 14 miles to the
gallon of fuel is a superlative performance.
Chalmers accomplished the feat
with ease. It did it because of the
quality of its motor, the excellence
of its design, the thoroughness
with which it is built. Thus is
proven the flexibility that a motor
car owner of today demands. Thus
is insured that economy that ap
peals in this day of high cost of
gasoline. Thus is demonstrated
the ability of a builder like Chal
mers to produce a car of surper
lative merit at a price far below
what is necessarily asked by
manufacturers of a limited output.
The conclusion is inevitable Buy a Chalmers
