PURSE FUR THE
 B|C ROAD RACE
Committee Will Shortly Be gin Raising Funds for the Arizona Classic; It Will Be a Bigger Event This Year Than Ever

Probably no single event outside of the big irrigation project. certainly no amusement or sporting event, has given Phoenix so wide and growing publicity as the annual Los Angeles To Phoenix automobile road race. which The Republican had the pleas ure of helping to inaugurate by of- tCring handsome silver cup as a trophy. Every year since then the cup has been contested for while cash purses and other cups have been added as the importance of the race grew into an annual fixed festival
 This year the race is going to be bigger and better than ever and doubtless there will be a greater number of cars in the contest than eyer before. The board of trade has already taken action by appointing a committee to raise purse of S2500 for the contestants and il is to be expected that there will be the usual number of cups and other prizes of fered. That there will be no difficult " in securing the purse money is quite confidently predicted for each race brings more money into the city by considerable than it's cost to the home people The same argument applies to the purses offered the cars at the fair ground. that event being in a sense d part of the big road race.
 The contestants themselves are at heavy expense and no doubt even those who win lose in actual cash except for the advertising they se- cure. But accompanying each race comes a large company of men Or their representatives, engaged in some branch Of the automobile trade. to say nothing of the race as an inn portant attraction at the big annual lair

ADOPTED BY SIOUX CHIEF
Miss Frances Oensmore Is
Made Daughter of
Red Fox.

Miss Frances Densmore of the bureau
of ethnology, known in Washington for
her work with Indian music, has been
formally adopted as daughter by Red
Fox, chief of the Teuton Sioux.
Miss Densmore has been working for
over two years making record Of In
dian folk songs. She is trained musi-
clan, having studied abroad. Her field of
work with the Indians is remarkable, in
that she takes a phonograph into the
camps and makes a mechanical record
that is used to check her manuscript
notes made at the same time. In this
way she has been able to preserve some
of the older tribal songs that are already
dying out.
On her last visit to the Sioux. to whom
she had become well known. Red Fox an
nounced formally at the tribal council
that he wished to adopt her in place of
his little daughter who had died about
twenty years ago. This substitution by
adoption is a tribal custom. but Red Fox
had never before attempted to replace
his lost daughter. The plan was ap-
proved by the tribe and Miss Densmore
is now a member in regular standing of
the Sioux tribe. :

MODERN SUGAR MILLS
USED IN PHILIPPINES
Adoption of New Processes
Leads to Higher Market
Prices.

The increase of Philippine sugar ex-
ports from 11O.604 tons in 1909 to 1907
during the fiscal year ending June 80,
last, is given additional interest by
reason of the fact that for the first time
even a small part of the crop was the
output of a modern mill. In the past all
sugar produced in the islands, being the
output of old-style mills, has been handi-
capped in the markets, usually grading
50 degrees or lower, and bringing ap-
proximately ] cent a pound less than
centrifugal sugar testing 96 degrees.
There was in operation near La Car
lota, Occidental Negros, during a portion
Of the last grinding season a small mill
with a capacity of $50 tons of cane per
day Its product met a strong demand,
bringing AZ cents a pound at wholesale
in lloilo. Another mill of this type in

met with similar success. A nuO1ber OF
similar mills are now being constructed
at other points.

First Large Mill.

The first large mill in the Philippines
has recently been completed on the San
Jose estate in the southern part Of the
Island Of Mindoro, but until the next
grinding season commences it will be
used only for reboiling some Of the lower
grade article and making marketable
sugar from it,
On this estate some 500 acres are al
ready in cane. and there are about $500
laborers at work preparing land and
planting cane. Contracts are being let
for a similar mill on the San Carlos es-
tate, on the northeast coast Of the Island
of Negros.

quality. Many of the young kids which
are seen upon the back alleys in cities do
not attain maturity because they pass
over the butchers block as lamb. and
there is no dealer on record who admits
of having a complaint as to the quality
of such lamb Many mature common
goats are purchased by packing houses
and sold either in the carcass or canned
While they may not be quite as palatable
as the best mutton, they are quite as
good as poor mutton. so the consumers s
criticism concerns the quality and not
the kind.
The prejudice existing against the COM
mon goat as an article of food Is as In
consistent as any human vagary upon
record. 1t is usually based upon the sup
posed heterogeneity of the goats diet, al
though a little consideration will show
that this is not more characteristic of
the goat than of the chicken or of the
pig, both of which are popular as food
supplies. In many instances. the goat is
fed entirely upon vegetables, and the
practice of utilizing goats for the clear
ing of light brush upon partially cleared
ground certainly provides an animal
whose diet should not be regarded as
making 1t unfit for human consumption.
The fact that packing houses now buy
goats, paying a little lower price per
pound than for sheep. indicates that there
might be q ready market for this meat
but for the existing prejudice.

With the continued high cost of beef
| and mutton. which, with pork. comprise
the staple meat supply Of the nation,
comes the need of considering the possi-
bilities of adding to the varieties Of meat
now upon the market. as in an Increased
supply lies the main hope Of a reduction
in price. There is said to be less variety
in the meat menus of the average Amer
lean home than in that Of most other ma
tions. and this fact is largely responsible
for the high prices Of the staple supplies.
A number Of farmers in the western
states are becoming keenly alive to the
possibilities of raising elk and deer as a
substitute for beef and mutton. and are
urging modification of the game laws
Of their respective states to make pos
sible the killing of these animals as they
are need for food Owing to the
abuses of the privileges Of hunting a gen.
Grafton or more ago many species Of game
were In danger of becoming extinct and
laws were needed to prevent this Now
however. 1t has been demonstrated that
by intelligent propagation. both by states
and by private enterprise, many Of our
depleted ranges can be restocked with
big game and that this process. with
proper laws for its utilization will add
materially to the food resources of the
country
A number of varieties Of deer and elk
have been found capable Of breeding un-
der semi-domestfc conditions. One of
these Is the Rocky mountain elk which,
next to the moose. is the largest Of the
American deer. Its range originally ex-
tended as far east as the Adirondack
mountains and western New Jersey,
southwark as far as the lower Alleghen-
les and northern Texas, New Mexico and
arizona. and westward as far as the Pa
cific coast. Now the range has become
SO limited that the animals are found in
only few scattered localities outside of
the Yellowstone National Park and the
mountainous country surrounding it.
Smaller herds still occur in Colorado,
western Montana, Idaho. eastern Oregon
and In certain parts Of Washington and
northern California. In addition to these
wild herds there are growing number
IN private game preserves and parks. as
we'll as in nearly all of the geological gar
dens of the country. The herds in cap
tivity form the nucleus from which under
wise management some of the former
ranges of this animal are being restocked
so that a profitable business may be built
up from raising elk venison for market.

Flesh OF ELK other venison and
Valued as Food eral nele large are h1@ ranches ses
in the west where the raising of elk has
assumed such proportion that it can be
supplied in considerable quantities. II
the increase continues there is no reason
why it should command it's present high
price. as venison can be produced with
much less care and expense after the
herd is once established than can either
beef or mutton. According to the reports
of the few now engaged in the industry.
the elk adapts itself readily to almost
any environment, and does well even in
comparatively narrow confines. Their in
crease is fully equal to that Of cattle.
A number Of other species of deer, it
is believed, may be easily bred to furnish
meat in commercial quantities. The Vir-
ginia or white tailed deer. which is the
common deer of the United States, can
be raised in most parts of the country,
and. according to the experience of
number Of breeders. can be easily domes-
ticated. It has been found profitable
upon some Of the large western ranches
to turn deer or elk into the sheep pas
ture. They act as protection to the sheep
and usually eat much of the same food,
although they browse upon shrubs which
way they have an added use in clearing
brush from land.
A few years ago there was a craze for
breeding Belgian hares as meat supply,
and like many other fads. it soon ran
itself out. While wild rabbits have al
ways been utilized to some extent in the
United States. especially during the cold
part of the year, they have never been
used as a food here to the extent they
have in England, where the home war
rens and farms are drawn upon to their
fullest capacity. and in addition from
1900 to $1,000 tons are imported an
nually, partly from the continent and
partly from Australia and New Zealand.
Evening star., 1912-10-03


started it was believed that it would
create an entirely new
Belgian Hare food supply, but when
r." 1t was found that the
0ee &o'oA' much talked Of Belgian
hare was in reality but little superior to
the ordinary rabbit the business almost
collapsed. Now. with the need Of an
increased meat supply. attention is again
being directed to the value of the rabbit.
Breeding rabbits for market is again be-
coming popular. and the bureau Of bio
logical survey Of the Department of Agri-
culture is giving additional attention to
the development of the stock and the best
means of caring for it. In England rab-
bits command about the same price as
poultry, and it is believed that by degrees
it may be possible to popularize them to
almost the same extent in this country.
During the past year there has been a
great increase in the number Of rabbit
breeding farms established here.
Despite much prejudice, which the ami
NAL does not altogether deserve there
is a growing amount of goat meat sold in
the United States for food. and the num-
ber of goat herds, especially in the south
ern states, is also increasing. There are
now estimated between two and three
million goats in this country. according
to a recent animal census. This includes
the common variety and also the Angora
goats. Of which there are about a million.
These last. however, have little to do
with the food supply, as they are being
bred chiefly for the mohair wool which
is produced from their fleece. The COM
mon goats are raised also for their hide
but this does not prevent the utilization
Of the meat as food if properly pre-
| pared.
