Sees Final Victory Over tuberculosis,

DR.. William Osler says: Whether
tuberculosis will be finally eradicated
is an open question. 1t Is a foe that
is very deeply intrenched in the hui
man race. Very hard it will be to
eradicate completely, but when we
think of what has been done in one
generation, how the mortality In
many places has been reduced more
than so per cent-indeed, in some
places 100 per cent.-it is a battle of
hope, and so long as we are fighting
with hope, the victory is in sight"

vessels the water route from New
York to San Francisco will be reduced

WHY COST Of J
LIVING INCREASES
Demand for Food VIII Soon Ex-
ceed Home Supply, Says
Commission Expert
JAMES J. HILLS PROPHECY
We Have Reached Point Where We
Are Ceaslne to Be an Exporting Ma
tion of Edibles-Effect Of coun-
try'e Growth.

New York, N. Y.-Henry Dunkak Ia
President of the New York Mercan-
tile Exchange, the organization Of pro-
duce commission merchants who han
die New York's fresh food supply.
The World asked him why the cost Of
living is increasing so rapidly. This
is his reply:
Natural causes a complete
change in the conditions governing
our national food supply. Artificial
charges here and there, extra profits
in some lines, combinations in others;
local conditions in cities have tend
encies to increase certain prices,
but those are the exceptions, not the
ruling causes. Underneath them lies
the basic reason; namely, demand
for food that is increasing faster than
the supply.
"We have reached point where We
are ceasing to be an exporting hation
of food products. Our population is
increasing so rapidly that we are con-
suming at home nearly all products
of the American farm. A few years
ago we exported large quantities of
food; to-day we export little save in
special lines; a few years hence we
may be importing.
1T is very simple rule in econom-
les that when the demand proves
greater than the supply prices rise.
This is the condition we are approach
ing in the food question This is why
prices are steadily advancing.
"Mr. James J. Hill the railroad man,
is considered, believe. an authority
on the grain supply of the West He
has stated that we, as a nation, are
rapidly approaching the time where
we will cease to export wheat and
flour and consume at home every
bushel we can raise. l am not fami-
liar with the details Of the wheat sup
ply, but 1 accept that prophecy, be-
cause know the same conditions are
applying to the fresh produce of the
farm-the butter, eggs, cheese, milk,
vegetables and poultry.
