Treating High Prices Practically.
At a meeting of representatives Of
cattle growers associations in Illinois
a movement was organized to encour-
age the raising of more cattle through
out the State, and not alone for the
sake of increasing the meat supply.
Raising stock is one means by which
the soil is rendered more fertile. In
many parts of Illinois corn is almost
the exclusive product, and the rotation
of crops is neglected, though its ad-
vantages are generally known. More
pasture lands would be beneficial TO
the tillable lands of the State, and this
idea will be Systematically urged up
on farmers at their institute meetings.
1t is little to the purpose to enlarge on
the increasing cost of meat without
taking into consideration the fact that
the supply of meat In the United
States in relation TO population has
been declining ever since 1910. In the
last ten years the population of the
country has gained nearly 20 per cent,
but there has been no increase in cat
tie. The ratio of decrease in hogs and
sheep has been about the same as in
beef. Meanwhile the export of meat
and its products, which were $4,000
900 pounds in 1885, was 419,OO0,00O
last year. and averaged much more be-
tween 1891 and 1908.
Numerous official Investigations Of
the high price of food are going on,
but so far clear conclusions have not
appeared. Otter the subject is APP
preached with the intent to make par
tisan capital The starting point with
many is a hard and fast theory OF
some kind, as the tariff or the machi-
nations of trusts. One of the abstruse
reasons assigned is the great increase
in the production of gold, with re-
sulting decline in its purchasing pow
er. A more valuable class of reasons is
that not enough cattle are raised, and
too small a proportion of the people
are engaged in farming. The Illinois
cattle growers are safe in claiming
that more cattle should be assured
and more land devoted to pasturing,
and that these measures will build up
agricultural interests generally, as well
as stop the relative decline in cattle
production. With highly remunera-
tive market certain, the intelligent
worker on the soil has better prospects
than ever before.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

EVINCE INTEREST IN
POSTCARD COMPAIGN
Los Angeles Alone Is Distributing
100000 PostaIs in
Boosting Fair

Great interest is being taken in the
post card campaign that is being
pushed in Los Angeles and Southern
California. Los Angeles alone is dis
tributing 100000 cards and the cities
and towns adjacent are doing as well
In comparison to population.
Those who take the cards are sup
posed 20 send them to friends in the
east, who in turn will use their in
fiuence with their congressman.
The cards are a good boost for Cali
fornia as well as for the exposition and
are attractive in appearance. Similar
cards would cost cent each in the
stores that sell such things, but they
can be obtained free at the Chamber
of Commerce for the next few days.
Those ordering in lots of 1000 or more
can secure delivery to their places of
business by calling up S. G. Austin at
the Chamber of Commerce.
Arthur w. Kinney, who is chairman
of the committee in charge of distri-

Cards are being distributed at the

WINERIES ARE ALLOWED
TO AGAIN SELL BRANDY
Vineyardists Get Concession from
Supervisors Local Option
Not Changed

Substituting "viniculated products"
for the word wines in section 81 OF
the countys general license ordinance
yesterday, the board of supervisors
broadened the scope of the ordinance so
as to allow wineries to dispose Of bran
dy the same as wine. No change was
made in the local option law, and at
the coming election each precinct will
regulate the sale of wines at wineries
Within it's district.
Should the precinct vote dry all wines
made at a winery within its boundary
must be shipped away from the winery
before they can be retailed.
Since the passing of the new ordi-
nance several weeks ago winery men
discovered that 1t only referred TO
wines, and that brandy, which is made
at air wineries. could not be disposed
of according to the correct 1nterpreta-
ton of the article.
Action was Immediately taken by the
winery men, who, represented by Guy
Barham, asked to have the clause
amended so as to include brandy. They
also requested that winery men using
more than 100 tons of grapes in the
course Of one year be excluded from the
local option provision and be classed as
manufacturers.
Opposition was raised to this latter
proposition by a delegation headed by
DR.. e. r. Chapman, superintendent OF
the Anti-Saloon league in California
and oregon.
A motion placed before the board by
Supervisor Pridham, to ask the district
attorney to draw up an amendment
that would make the ordinance not ap-
ply to wine only, but to all vinicultural
products, was carried without opposi-
| tion.
Acting on the advice Of Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Shaw, the minimum sale
was fixed at two gallons.

GIRL DENIES INTENT
To SHOOT MILLIONAIRE
4 Love Him Too Much to Have
Pulled Trigger Cries
Miss Gibson in Jail

With quivering lips and tear-glisten-
ing eyes, Miss Julia Ward Gibson, held
In the county jail in default of $4,000
bail on charge of assault with a
deadly weapon on A. D. Myers, mill
lionaire mining man, related her trou-
bles yesterday and told how, when all
pleadings and arguments had failed,
she drew a revolver in Myers home at
Long Beach wednesday night She
denied any intent to shoot Myers.
No sooner had Miss Gibson entered
the visitors room in the county Jail
than she burst into tears. Between
sobs and in a brave attempt to re-
strain her tears, she said:
II love him too much to have ever
pulled the trigger. He knows 1t and
they all know 1t.
'It is awfully hard to hear man
that you love, one who has promised
to make you happy with marriage, say
that he intends to marry another the
next day. That kind of talk hurts.
He thinks that it is a matter of money
with me. but it is not so; love him."
Miss Gibson obtained marriage Ii
cense to marry Alva De Witte Myers
before she went to the Myers home.
The license gives her age as 27 and
Myers as 40.
The trouble between the two was
first brought to the attention of the
public in February, when Miss Gibson
filed suit for $4,000 damages for
alleged breach of promise.
The preliminary hearing Of Miss Glib
son will be held this morning in JUS
tice S. H. Underwood's court at Long
Beach. Doubt is expressed by some
that the assault charge can be sus-
tanned, although Miss Gibson displayed
a weapon.

CHURCHES WANT TO CLOSE
POSToFFICE ON SUNDAY
Department Will Issue Order at
City's Request

A campaign to close the postoffices
all over the country on Sunday, which
was started in New York some time
ago by the Lords Day alliance, will be
launched in Los Angeles Sunday,
when Charles Edward Locke, pastor
of the First Methodist church. will de-
liver a sermon on "The American Sun
day" Mr.. Locke will read COM
munication from the postmaster gem
eral, stating that where the inhabi-
tants of city petition for 1t, an or
der will be issued closing the office
of that city.
1t is stated that by closing the office
more than 500 men would be given a
day of rest of which they are now de-
prived, and that other cities, Colora-
do Springs being cited as an example,
have a Sunday closing postoffice with
no i'll results to the business of that
city.
The movement may be taken up by
the church federation and the minis
ters' association.
