Early in May came the uprising of the
Midi, the wine growers being aroused
almost to the pitch Of insurrection by
the disastrous effects of the adulterated
wine on their business. Premier Clemen-
ceau was compelled to send troops into
the disaffected regions and many arrests
were made. When the government gave
assurances that a bill to suppress adul-
teration would be supported by the gov
eminent the trouble died down. July

MORE CROPS
LESS MONEY.

In view of the fact that the
Secretary of Agriculture has
demonstrated that the larger the
grain crop is the less the amount
of money the farmer receives for
it, it seems strange tha5 the secre
tary should urge everybody to raise
more of everything, and that con
gress and the state should be
calle on TO increase the amount
of money to be used in the educa-
tion of people to produce more
wealth without any regard to
what they will do with it. To be
sure, consumers might be bene
flied to some extent by getting
the products of the farm for less
than it cost to raise them, but
matter of fact, they never do, for
the middle man and speculate
raises the price before it reachr

orally at leading stock shows and ex-

A comparison of the live animal
with cuts of meat subs aquently taken
from 1t, and shown as finished ready
for the retail trade, gives in a strik-
ing fashion, the relative success of
the feeding. In the illustrations shown
herewith, the difference between the
two animals before and after killing
is easily seen.
The first steer of common breeding
is lacking in the development of the
parts which make up the highest
priced cuts. The loin is not well filled
out and the rio is poorly fattened
neither is the shank well covered
This animal also has a poor form for
feeding and is much under fattened

steer shows at once the superiority OF
