Cheap meat is thing Of the past and in
the life time of the present generation never
again will meat be cheap enough for it to
be used without becoming family bur-
den, is the opinion Of the members of the
National Live Stock Association, and this
condition will be due to the supply and de-
mand rather than the actions OF the trusts.
The great rush to the cities at the expense
Of the farm is largely responsible for this
state of affairs Another cause for the
scarcity of meat lies in the fact that a ma
jority Of those living in the rural and sub
urban districts do not raise meat enough for
home consumption and are as much depend
ent on the stockyards for meats as the fam
lily living on thirty-foot lot in some me-
tropolitan city. Every person living out off
city limits should raise at least "a couple OF
pigs and calf for meat use, and that done
the situation would be greatly relieved.

white Christian men and women are guilty
of such loathsome crimes what could be ex-
pected of less fortunate race. America
seems to breed sexual perverts and the dis
ease is on the increase. The drink evil arls-
inc from the treat habit may be dragging
large per cent of the men and women down
to ruin, but it is nothing in comparison to
the sexual crimes.

Safety on Trains.

The fact that the Pennsylvania Rail
road during the past year has carried
100000 passengers without single
fatality deserves recognition. This was
the official record On the lines east of
Pittsburg. But when one combines
these figures with those of the last tEree
years, it is shown that these lines carried
during that period total of 37I,ooo,ooc
passengers, or more than four times the
number of inhabitants i'll the United
States, and only one was killed.
This proves not only excellence in
management, but the highest kind of
efficiency and, above all, the reliabilit; OF
the many thousands of employees on the
road, such as engineers, fremen, signal
men, hagmen, track hands. and repair
crews. No matter how nearly perfect
the physical and mechanical equipment
and appliances of any railroad may be,

Plea for Less Materialism.

1T is a mistake to make the college

and the shop and to rclegatc the liberal

Bid for Japanese Trade.

Motojiri Shiraishi general manager Of
the Toyo Nisen Kaisha Steamship Com
pany, of Japan, who was seen recently
at the ShOreham, in speaking Of busi-
ness in Japan, said: Germany is max
ing a strong bid for business in the
Orient. While Japan, because of its
friendly relations with the United States.
prefers to do its importing from America.
German machinery especially has been
much cheaper than that made in the
United States, and as a matter of busi-
ness. Japan has given much trade to
Germany.
If iron and steel products made in
this country could be sold abroad cheap
er the United States could do a much
larger volume of business in Japan. But
nitcd States manufacturers have a good
market at home. while Germany must
go abroad for her market"
Mr.. Shiraishi said there was in Japan
no thought OF war with the United
Statcs.

countries ii they should go to war Japan
Is very grateful to the United States for
having brought civilization to her, and it
