Cheap Hogs improbable.

Much ado is being made ABOUT u
heavy hog crop in the maturing stage
and the probability of a steep drop in
prices during the winter packing sea-
son. Undoubtedly more pigs have been
raised this year than last, but this does
not imply low hog market. 1t will
be noticed that spectators on the
board OF trade have been reluctant 10
sell distant provision options on a basis
of $3.50 hogs. The attitude of TIE
packer toward the market has not yet
developed, but the killer has every in
centive to maintain prices as he still
has reason for encouraging production,
says the Breeders Gazette
Heavy marketing of sows and stays
for months past betrays the existence
of large pig CROP which is the prin-
cipal contention of the bear coterie, but
the fact must not be overlooked that
the major portion of the females of
the new crop must be retained for
breeding purposes, high prices having
sent most of the old sows to the sham
bles this summer. This was a con
spicuous phase Of the supply last win
ter, that run being almost exclusively
of barrows, the sows having material
lied this summer after raising litters
of pigs.
Hereafter, at least until pork produc-
tion overtakes consumption, it is proba-
BILE that barrows will be sent to the
butcher during the winter packing sea.

With young sows held back for re

Balloon Racers Lost.

Montreal, P. O., Oct. est is the
opinion of August Blankertz, aide of the
balloon Germania, that Allan R. Hawley
and Augustus Post of New York, pilot
and aide, respectively, of the America
H., which left st. Louis last Monday,
and from whom no word has since been
received, are fighting for their lives
through the wilderness of northern
Quebec
Mr.. Blankertz arrived here yesterday
from La Tuque, Que, some distance
from the spot where the Germania land
ed ON Wednesday. He and Captain
Hugo Won Abercron had desperate
fight for their lives in order to reach
a railroad line.
There they met a construction gang
and from them learned a large yellow
balloon had preceded the Germania over
practically the same route, by half an
hour. The railroad men told Blankertz
that the other balloon was very high
and maintained the same altitude until
she passed out of sight toward the I'm
gava wilderness.
Mr.. Blankertz expressed the opinion
that the balloon was the America H.
The later report of the landing of the
Dusseldorf II in the same region ex.
plains to the satisfaction of many the
appearance of the first balloon, but Mr.
Blankertz has not changed his opinion

AIR ARMY IS READY
JOHN RYAN SAYS UNCLE SAM
is UP-T0-DATE.
Claims to Have $500 Men Over the
United States to Act AS Scouts
Army Has Been Instructed to Co
operate With Air-going Men in Or.
ganization of Aeronautical Corps.

America IS air army is ready for bust
ness. John Ryan, son of Thomas f.
Ryan, founder and commodore of the
United States aeronautical reserve, in
a signed statement says:
"We have $500 men, situated In
every state in the Union, enlisted in the
aeronautical reserve to act as scouts in
time of battle. officers of the army
and navy have been assigned to CO.
operate with him in the organization
of an aeronautical reserve corps.
"The aeroplane will eventually make
war so full of horrors, by its newt
ably increasing power to destroy forti-
fications, as well as ships and towns,
that it will be one of the greatest
means of bringing about peace among
nations. 1t is still true at the present
day, however, that a nation to preserve
peace must be prepared for war. The
country commanding the strongest
army and the strongest navy will be
feared most.
Begun Month Ago.
CIT was due to a full realization of
these facts that ] become interested in
the organization of the United States
aeronautical reserve. Only a month
has passed since the first actual re-
cruiting work began at the Harvard
Boston aviation meet.
War Department Recognition.
General Robert Shaw Oliver, acting
secretary of war, in behalf of that de.
partment of federal service, has as
signed Brigader General ames Allen,
chief signal officer of the army, to con-
suit and correspond with the United
States aeronautical reserve in regard to
its relations with the war department
The reserve intends to put its services
and resources at the disposal of the
government in times of war.
cup to date very little has been done
in this country toward testing the
value of the aeroplane in naval war
fare. Perhaps this has been delayed
somewhat on account of the strenuous
efforts that are being made to produce
more efficient vehicles. Nevertheless
the navy department has displayed
deep interest in the aeronautical re.
serve movement and will give it its co
operation. -

Two Biggest Payments.

The two biggest concerns in the
country, the Standard Oil company and
the United States Steel corporation
have paid into the government more
than 100000, or about thirteenth
of the entire tax.
This, the fnanciers say, is preposter-
Gus, inasmuch as many Of the big com
panies have admitted a total earning
of Z per cent or better on their capital
ization in their reports to their stock
holders.
The prediction made in financial
circles is that as the result of the ap
parent evasion of the tax law, the law
will be strengthened by congress IN
the near future so that the treasury de-
partment may readily detect those who
fail to meet the requirements.
