Col. X. B. Collins, a retired army officer who
was seen at the Raleigh, in discussing West
Pointers said to a reporter of the Washington
Herald: Il have often heard a question as
to whether West Pointers wore corsets. It is
absurd, In a way, because should any effem-
mate youngster resort to such a thing It
would be an impossibility to keep the affair
a secret, and, once known, his school life would
become a burden to him OIL account of the
endless amount Of criticism he would receive
from his fellows. He would be made the
laughing stock Of the school and would soon
find himself the possessor of any number Of
effeminate nicknames that would CRATE upon
his ears In any but a pleasant manner.
1T is true" continued the old soldier, that
many West Pointers acquire a figure the per
lection Of symmetry and a carriage the acme
of manly grace, but these are due not to any
ingenious appliance, but to the systematic
drills and exercises that make every cadet, to
a certain extent. an athlete. At the outset
these young fellows are put through what are
called the setting up exercises, their object
being to straighten the body and develop the
chest. One might suppose that 1t would re-
quire a great amount Of such exercise to make
any marked showing, but three long hours
of such exercise daily will soon produce bene-
fetal results in the most stopped forms.
The cadet uniform is also a great help in
this direction, The dress coat is tight, very
tight. The shoulders are heavily padded in
order to give them a square effect. The chest
is made thick, SO that there will be no dan,
ger of wrinkling. And in size, a new dress
coat seems always, to be designed for a boy
several sizes smaller than the one who is to
wear 1t. A new dress coat, In fact, is always
a source Of suffering to its owner. When be
first puts it on, it buttons readily about the
neck, but seems to lack about six inches al
the waist. The owner may squirm and wrig
gle and attempt to reduce his waist to a mini
mum circumference, but his maiden efforts are
never sufficient to button the new dress coat
Expei renee is a great teacher, though. and tbs
young fellow laughingly requests one or two
friends to lend their assistance, and with theil
combined Juggling and squeezing ne finally sue
ceeds In buttoning the coat. All this for thu
sake Of looks; comfort has no place In thu
makeup Of q West Pointer; IT Is discipline and
looks"

LIVES SAVED AT SMALL COST
Figures Showing Expenditures For
the Maintenance Of Tubercu-
losis Sa~natorlums.

In a comparative study of the cost
of maintenance in thirty tuberculosis
sanatoriums the National Association
fer the Study and Prevention OF Tu-
berculosis found that the food cost In
most Of the institutions represented
one-third Of the annual expenditures.
The average daily food cost per pa
tient was $0.544. The expenditures for
salaries and wages represented nearly
another third, being $0.481 per day per
patient out of a total of $1.669. The
fuel, oil and light cost was $0.2o6 per
capita per diens or about one-eighth
of the total cost. The daily cost in
the several institutions ranged all the
way from $0.946 per patient to $2.555.
In the far west and southwest, as In
Colorado and New Mexico and Cali
fornia, the cost was higher than In the
east, In New York and New England,
being $2.025 per patient as against
$1.748. The total expenditures of the
thirty institutions were $1,S63,953 .28.
while the total receipts from all
sources were $1,548. 525.74. More than
70 per cent. of the receipts were re-
ceived from public funds and private
b%enefactions, only 28.8 per cent being
from patients. Stated in another way
only So per cent. of the total expendi-
lures were received from patients, the
remainder being made up from other
sources.

producing provinces, as they are also the prln-
cipal grain producers. Next to these come
La Pampa, Santiago and Salta, each OF which
provinces carries from about 100000 to l,OOot-
600 cattle. Then come San Luis, Mendoza, La
Rioja and Catamarca, averaging about halr
of these numbers In the north, Mfs1ones,
Formosa and Ell Chaco, and in the south Rio
Negro and Chubut are rapidly becoming I'M
portant cattle districts. Even San Juan and
Neuquen, on the Andean slope, and santa
Cruz and TERRA del Fuego, in the extreme
south, are finding that cattle as well as sheep
can be raised with profit. In fact, there is
but little territory in the Argentine Republic
which Is not suitable for either cattle or sheep.
Beef is exported from the La Plata region
on the hoof, as sailed or as meat extracts, and
frozen in quarters.
England is the principal market for South
American beef. The frozen-meat industry in
the Argentine Republic has grown up since
the closing of the English market to live
cattle.
In the year 1908 the Argentine Republic ex-
ported 60,916 head of live beef cattle, three.
fourths of which went to Chile. 1t exported
2,295,T84 quarters (573, GAG whole beeves) of
frozen beef, and from the sailing works 1856,
400 beeves as salt beef, meat extract or 1erked
beef.
In this latter industry Uruguay in addition
exported 754, 800 and southern Brazil 425, 00C
head, respectively.
AS a field for investment in the cattle in
dustry the La Plata region offers the very
best of chances. In fact, it is without a rival
and will remain such until a like enterprise
and capital which has there produced such
marvellous results shall seek a new opportu
nifty on the Oronoco and in the upper Amazon
country.
The field for cattle growing is large; there
need be no scarcity though the United States
should cease to export and become an i'm
porter of meat.

s. swerfng any of these questions. The meat proposition
is already serious, 1t is true; but this is because we are at the turning
of the ways and not because the immediate future, or ever the future
for some hundreds of years at least, presents any real difficulty to the
solution of this proposition.
Leaving out Of consideration all questions involving the socaned
meat trust, the tariff, etc, and looking at the matter simply Is a
question of economy in meat production, there is no need to fear a
famine. nor ought there to be any fear of high prices to limit the con-
sumption.
A number of factors enter into the worlds present meat problem,
one of the most important of which is the change in conditions under
which meat has been produced in the United States. The change from
range to farm production of beef cattle and the improved shipping IA
cilhes for corn, which latter has revoMuonzed the hog industry, have
together upset the balance in the meat market Unlimited free range
on government lands made cheap meat, but the taking up of these
lands by settlers, and particularly the taking up of land around water

sites has changed the whole situation. The extern
sion of railways and an improved service has given
the western farmer a choice, either to sell his corn or
to feed for meat, where formerly he had no choice; it
was either hogs or cease raising corn. He raised hogs
because he was forced to 1t, and he bought range beef
cattle to put them in condition for the market by feed
ing for a few months with a part of his surplus grain.
The raising of cattle on the free ranges of the west
was the cheapest method of meat production at the
time practised in the United States, but it is a question
whether beef may not now be produced, and is not now
produced by a few farmers, even cheaper than on the
western ranges in the past.
The poor quality of range meat, which necessitated
several months of farm feeding and care in order to
be gotten in condition for the market, the great losses
in the herds due to insufficient food and water, and
the lack of winter shelter made the business of cattle
raising on the western plains a more or less uncertain
and precarious industry. 1t was an exotic, and as such
1t will die with changing conditions.
The future Of meat production in the United
States is a farming proposition, and like all other
questions connected with the national agriculture de-
