NOW BACON is APPRECIATED.
There is Better Demand for it Since
its Price Went Up,

lis Price went UP.
Kansas City Star: Bacon. Is that
kind of meat appreciated in your
home, hotel or boarding house? Did
it ever strike you that it might be
this same food that adds the appetiz-
ing effect to your breakfast plate of
bacon and eggs? Do you know that It
is economy to eat it, even though the
price has advanced from thirty-two
TO thlrty-tive cents a pound? And are
not you sorry that you didn't eat more
of it when the butcher was begging his
customers to carry it from his store
at twenty cents pound?
1T is queer how people are coming
10 realize more and more the food val
ue of bacon,' the manager of a Kan.
sas City packing house said yesterday
And they see that it is economical as
food, even though price is high
when compared to that of several
years ago. A pound of bacon is
enough for family of four or five
for two meals. A person rarely wants
more than three slices at one meal.
And then that person is as we'll salts.
fled as though he had eaten a half
pound of beef steak
"A few years ago it was difficult to
find market for the choicest brands
of breakfast bacon at fourteen and
fifteen cents pound. Today we hard
ly can supply the demand at twenty
seven and twenty-eight cents and the
retailer gets from five to seven cents
more than that amount"
DO you think that the price of ba-
con will stay up long?" the packer
was asked.
Il don't believe the price of bacon
will come down very soon" was the
reply. You know it takes lean hogs
to make bacon hogs. AS the farmer
becomes more and more scientific in
his methods, he will send his hogs
to the market fatter and fatter Now,
only about Is percent of the hogs on
the market are bacon hogs and the
average bacon yield is only ten pounds
to the hog. You see, the demand is
greater and the supply smaller than
few years ago. If the condition re-
mains the same, the price of bacon
will stay up"

can send against them when prepared?
He took pot shot at Hobson, saying
he was the originator OF the stories
about the coming war between the
United States and Japan. Hobson. he
says, was in the orient but eight
months, while he (Stuntz) was there
fifteen years
He greatly praised the work of the
United States in the Philippine
islands, where he said the natives are
speaking the English language more
in the short nine years of American
occupation of the islands, than they
could Spanish with all the years of
education Spain was endeavoring to
drill into them. He told of the educa
tional system in the islands, of the
agricultural schools, normal schools
barrio, and schools in the provinces
which are doing wonderful work for
the natives. He told of the sanitary
condition of Manila compared with
the time of the Spanish government.
He declared that through its work of
sanitation the United States was say.
ing 10000 lives yearly.
He touched on the Friar lands.
which he said consisted of 100000
acres of very valuable land. Although
the government paid $17000,000 for
them, he said they were growing won
derful crops on them and they could
be sold for more than the government
paid for them.
The New York Ladies' Trio gave
another prelude last evening, and al
though the rain held back an expected
large crowd, Peter MacQueen, with
his Illustrated lecture on Africa, kept
his audience very much interested.
After leaving the platform Mr..
Stuntz was introduced to Father Buck.
ley of the Sacred Heart church of this
city, who pleasantly questioned the
lecturer of the far east about the much
talked of Friar lands in the Philippine
islands.
81 want OF ask you a question" said
Father Buckley. Didn't l understand
you to say that the Friars killed the
United States tax collectors?"
Mr.. Stuntz answered that he did not
make such statement, that he said
about thirteen of them were killed by
the men who lived on the Friar lands.
The tenants did not want to pay the
Friars. He would leave it to his au-
dience to think why not. He also said
the Friars wanted s14,000,000 for the
lands, but the United States paid but
100000 for them. There was no
choice. The titles were good, they be-
longed to the Friars, and we had to
buy them for peace and harmony. He
then CALAMITY upheld President Taft's
policies.
Father Buckley asked Mr.. Stuntz if
he intimated that the Friars were a
bad set of people.
mo, sir, said they were gentlemen.
l did not come here to discuss them.
but / can do so at the proper time and
place. And / can say whether they
are or not"
WELL" said Father Buckley, whom
am / to believe, President Taft or
you?"
Take your choice" said Mr.. Stuntz
as he strutted off.
1t was very interesting meeting
between the two ministers and debate
between them would probably have
been more interesting. That Father
Buckley is greatly interested in the
Friar land question in the Philippines
is taken from the fact that he had
with him a local stenographer, who
took down the entire lecture.
