INCREASING COST OF FOOD.

AS long as we continue to have
an exportable surplus of meats
and grain in the United States
it is evident our supply off the
more essential foodstuffs exceeds
the home demand. 1t is, there
fore, folly to argue that the in
creased cost of living must be
ascribed to the fact that the in
crease in population steadily out
strips the increase in farm acre
age, or that the increase in urban
population has been of late years,
as the census returns show, three
times greater than the increase
in rural population.
The increasing disparity be-
tween the number Of consumers
of farmers in this country and
the number of consumers Of farm
products in other gainful occupa-
tons might have brought on
scarcity had not farm production
been vastly increased at the
same time farm labor was dimin-
ished by the aid of machinery.
Statistics gathered by the
Government Labor Bureau show
that the same amount of labor
necessary to produce a bushel of
wheat 80 years ago will now pro-
duce over Is bushels. The farm
ers are also in good part making
ing up for the past unfertility of
exhausted soils by more efficient
tillage. Philadelphia Record.

FOR A COUNTRY LIFE
COMMISSION.

1t is very widely and very
properly held that the basis and
bed rock foundation Of a success
full people lies in a large, healthy
and increasing agricultural popu-
lation. The growth and develop
ment of the United States GER
tainly bears this theory out. In
the cities is to be found the flower
of material civilization, but it is
relatively a forcing house growth.
For the conditions of life, if not
actually less healthy-they usual
ly are-are certainly more arti-
fetal, the nervous strain is great
er, the physique receives less de-
velopment and thus the Vitality
of the race is we'll preserved.
1t is a well-known fact that in
the leading industrial nations of
the world the urban populations
are growing largely at the ex-
pense of the rural. In 1870, "a
per cent, of the total population
of the United States lived in
cities and was classed as urban.
In 1850 the ratio had gone up to
1875 per cent; in 1900 it was
over 80 per cent. In Maryland
not quite half the population
lives in towns of more than s.
900 inhabitants. But in the last
decade the towns have increased
more. rapidly than the countryside
= when we consider that the total
population of the State was larg-
er by 9 per cent. in 1910 than in
1900, while that of the towns
alone was about II per cent. If,
as we. expect, Baltimore city
makes rapid strides as a manu-
featuring centre, the attraction
to the country people to move to
town will be all the stronger.
From every point of view it is
important that country life be
rendered as attractive as possible.
A large per cent. of the rural
population will always find the
widest horizon in the cities. But
many former farm boy or girl
who has moved to the city would
have lived a better and healthier
life close to the soil. Likewise
those that stay on the farm will
be more efficient, and therefore
more prosperous if they are con-
tented in and properly trained
for the life they are going to
lead.
Recently a National Country
Life Congress, held at Spokane,
created a board of trustees to
assist the States in their work
for a better country life. But
they decided to assist only
through those States that have
existing country life commits
sions, such as Nebraska, Wash.
ington, Idaho, Montana and
Oregon.
In his inaugural, Governor
Go1dsborough recommended the
creation of commission to in
vestigate conditions as they exist
in Maryland and to suggest
policies that might be undertaken
by the State for the benefit of
the farmers. A bill is accord
ingly, to be introduced into the
Legislature providing for such a
commission, and it deserves the
warm support of all those who
have the best interests of the
State at heart. Baltimore Sun.

lently insane, were carried off.
Scores of women are in a comatose
condition Many of the survivors
are apparently unsettled mentally.
NEW YORK, April &c. H.
Stengel, one of the first passengers
on the Carpathia. declared that the
wreck was the result of criminal
carelessness. The ship was going
about twenty-five knots an hour
when il struck the iceberg and
the impact was too terrible for the
gigantic vessel to withstand Great
blocks of ice were thrown on the
decks killing many of the passen-
gers The stern of the vessel rose
bodily in the air. and the passen-
gers ran shrieking from below. The
sailors of the vessel tore women
from their husbands and hurled
them bodily into the boats.
