HE DID THE PROPER THING.
IT Governor Hadn't Cut ApPropria-
tiOns We Would he SCraping the
Hottorn pc IIoN Npu-


The figures announced at the
states treasury showing the balance
in the general fund of the common
wealth to be $4,7S7,214.29 are con-
sidered on Capitol Hill to be a COM
plete justification of Governor
Stuarts course in making a cut of al
most twenty million dollars in the
appropriations as made by the last
legislature. At the time the COVER
nor was very severely criticised and
it was pointed out that the state
would have a balance of anywhere
from $7,OO0.000 to 100000 in ad-
dition to the revenue of about $780,
100000. The governor thought
otherwise and events have abundant
ly justified his stand.
The states balance is lower now
than it has been any time since 1904
and fears are now expressed that it
may go still lower unless the auditor
generals department can get in rev.
enue at a faster rate than in the last
six weeks. Within six months the
state will have to meet the seven and
a half millions of school appropria-
tion, to say nothing of carrying on
the very expensive state government
al machinery, and as the revenue for
1909 was swollen through activity of
Auditor General Young in collecting
delinquent corporation taxes, the
treasury may find the funds lower
than for a decade.
Had the governor approved the
s70,00O,000 of appropriations put up
to him by the legislature the state
would have been scraping the bottom
of its strong box by this time and the
schools and hospitals would have
been facing a return to the old days
when appropriations were not paid as
promptly as they have been in the
last few years.
At the opening of the last legisla-
tive session the governor sent to the
legislature the most complete and
detailed statement of the states fl
nances ever compiled for the general
assembly. 1t showed what had been
the income in the two previous years
and gave estimates of what might
be expected. 1t was one of the gov
ernor's typical business statements,
but in spite of it the legislature failed
to hold it's bills within the limit and
the governor was forced to the task
How manfully he met it every one
knows, as his own highway bill was
among the first to fall

said the package contained, zone

four gents ties, two handkerchiefs
and one child's pajamas; all of which
have been used"
The last clause of the sentence
made the articles free of duty. Just
how the cake, mince pies and the
pudding could be second-handed and
used before, caused Postmaster Ma
guare to smile, and the articles were
turned over to the addressee who
said that they might have been used
before in Merrie England, but that
they would never be used again in
America after he was done With them.

THE MEAT WE EAT.

Among the peoples of the earth,
except those of Australasia, the In
habitants of the United States are the
most liberal meat eaters. Investiga-
tions have disclosed the fact that the
per capita consumption of meat in
this country, in terms of dressed"
meat, was 1858 pounds in 1900.
If the edible parts outside of that
description are included, such as
heart liver, tongue and so on, the
consumption was 220.5 pounds. If
all this is reduced to strictly edible
meat by exclusion of bones and other
nonedible parts, the per capita meat
consumption of men, women, chill
dren, and babies was 1926 pounds in
1900.
The meat consumption of other
countries is usually stated in terms
of dressed meat, but may include
some extraneous parts. AS compared
with 1858 pounds of dressed weight
of meat, standing as the per capita
consumption of the United States
Cuba follows next in order with 124
pounds; the United Kingdom 1918
France 7S.9 pounds; Denmark 76
pounds Belgium 40 pounds; Sweden
GO pounds. The average for Austria
liza is apparently 2626 pounds, and
for New Zealand 212.5.
The average meat consumption of
the United States has long been de-
Clining. Primarily, the supply of
meat in relation to population has de-
clined since the first livestock CEN
sus in 1910. For cattle in that
year, excluding calves, there was an
average of 0.SS of an animal of
farms to each inhabitant, of O.S1 of
an animal in 1860, of 0.79 of an
animal in 1880, of 0.92 of an animal
in 1890, and of 0.69 of an animal in
1900.
The comparison of sheep, exclud-
ing lambs, with population shows
that there were 1.13 animals on the
farms in 1910 to each inhabitant,
OIL of an animal in 1860, 0.S4 OF an
animal in 1880, O.65 of an animal in
1890, and 0.52 of an animal in 1900,
Range sheep are supposed to be in
cluded.
The decline for swine is about as
great as that for sheep, and has been
uninterrupted. The ratio of swine on
farms to population in 1910 was 1.54
animals; in 1860 it was 1.07 animals;
in 1890 it was 0.92 of an animal; and
in 1900 it was 0.S3 of an animal

GOOD ROADS.

This Should be the Paramount Issue
With the Farmers From Now On.
The knell of macadam roads in this
part of the country seems to have
been sounded. New Jersey has turn
ed them down and that means much.
The Wellsboro Agitator said last
week: In Tioga county and in the
neighboring counties there has been
a general popular condemnation of
this style of road when the cost of
construction and maintenance is con-
sidered. In this county during the
past summer the plain dirt roads well
moulded with the simple King road
drag at slight cost have been in bet
ter condition for travel with any con-
veyance than the expensive macadam.
This is a statement no local traveller
will dispute" Bradford county is
trying to macadam road and now has
between 20 and 25 miles of it, and it
remains to be seen whether applica-
tion will be made for state aid to
build more.
The main features of the Jones
dirt road, which will soon go into ef-
feet in this state, are these: 1t will
abolish the work tax system, and pro-
vides that all road taxes shall be col
lected in cash All townships will
receive from the state bonus of so
per cent, or one-half as much money
as has been collected from the tax
payers; provided, however, that this
bonus shall not exceed $50 per mile
of road in any one township.

There are some people you canr OF
be with for half an hour but you feel
cheerful and comforted. Then there
are other people you cannot be with
for five minutes before you feel mis-
cradle. They do not mean to disturb
you, but they annoy you to the bone.
They gather up all the yarn which
the gossips spin, and peddle it out.
They gather up all the adverse criti-
eism about your person, about your
business, about your home, about
your church, and they make your ear
the funnel into which they pour it.
They laugh heartily when they tell
you, as though it were a good Joke,
and you laugh, too-outside. If you
are pale in appearance they will say,
How very bad you look-a-a-h! not
long for this world" You greet
them with hilarious good morn
ing" and they come buZZing at you
with some depressing information.
1t is astonishing how many people
in this world prefer to say disagree
able things and prefer to write dis
agreeable things.

OUR TOWN.

Patronize home where your inter
ests are and help maintain and sup
port these interests-your interests,
your neighbor's interests. Get that
selfishness out of your heart that is
enyious of every success; that wants
to pull down every, interest that
seems to reach beyond yours, and is
in reality an advantage to it and the
town. Neither imagine when a few
shekels accumulate in your wallet
you must necessarily go out of town
TO spend it, thinking it would never
do to distribute a little cash to your
home merchants, since you can stand
them off for six months or a year.
Mistaken idea. They'll appreciate
the cash and give you just as good
bargains as any merchant in neigh
boring town or city that may get your
cash. Encourage home dealers and
manufacturers in everything, not
only by your patronage but by words
of encouragement and commenda-
tion. This is the way to build up
town and make business lively; and

prise, and watts TO the world doings.
