A change Of nationwide significance
is already well under way in the I'M
pending big corn crop. Because of
the bearing of the corn yield upon the
cost of raising hogs, the influence OF
hogs for market upon the price Of
meat, and the effect Of lower meat
prices upon the cost of living big
corn yield might even have more
political significance than any of the
party platforms or other presidential
announcements.
BY the way the corn crop is now
behaving the end of July should indi-
cate crop not far from 5000, 100000
bushels. Since these prospects be-
came fairly we'll confirmed by official
reports, the price of corn has been
sliding downward from the level OF
last years price on July | December
corn is 6 cents bushel cheaper. and
if other feedstuffs produce correspond
ingly we may have 5O-cent corn be-
fore November l. This means that
a greater proportion of mammoth
crop may go into cattle and hogs on
the farm than at any earlier time
within several years.
Encoura cement for meat consumers
can be found in the understanding
possibilities of swine, as compared
with any other meat-producing AMI
NAL. Western stock men are now adj
vertising pure bred hog sales for lit
tering in September. That means a
new generation in the early summer
or late spring OF 1913. During the
past six months summer-born pigs
of 1911 have come to market, at if
teen OF the packing house centers OF
the west, in numbers amounting to
100000 head against 1887 900 in
1911, and only 10,S5o,OO0 head in the

RAILWAY BUSINESS FOR MAY.

For the month Of May the net oper-
ating revenue of the railways declin-
ed five and fife-tenths per cent per
mile of line as compared with May
1911, and that for May 1911 was four
and eight-tenths per cent less than
for May 1910 This is the SALIENT fact
of the monthly summary OF the Blu
reau of Railway Economics, compiled
from the reports of the railways to
the Interstate Commerce Commission,
and embracing ninety per cent OF the
steam railway mileage of the country.
The total operating revenues were
$226,109,262, an increase of 81 per
mile of line over May, 1911. The oper-
ating expenses were s161 1868, SIT, an
increase of s24.29 per mile of line,
while the net operating revenue was
s64,740,5S5, a decrease Of s17.23 per
mile of line. Taxes amounted for the
month to $9.Ss7,3O1, or s45 per mile,
an increase Of nine and two-tenths per
cent.
The decrease in net operating reve-
nue. was most severe for the eastern
groups of railways, amounting to elev-
en- and nine-tenths per cent. For the
southern group 1t increased four
tenths of one per cent and for the
western group less than one-tenth of
one per cent. The aggregate of the
net operating revenue for the eleven
months of the fiscal year, and also for
the five months of the calendar year,
when measured per mile of line,
shows decrease in comparison with
the corresponding periods Of the pre-
vious year.

A Call to Fight Socialism.
Chicago Evening Post: Rev. j

Chicago Evening Post: Rev. John
P. Carroll, bishop OF the Catholic do
cese OF Montana, in closing his CHI
cago visit with an appeal to Catholic or
CARNATIONS to open frontal attack
upon socialism, offers a valuable sug-
gestion to other Americans who fear
the menace Of these doctrines.
The time has probably passed when
socialism can be disposed OF in the
United States by disregarding it or
by ridiculing it. Thousands of our clti-
zens see in it propagandas that are
UNI American. Our business men view
Its economic policies with distrust and
suspicion. They want none of 1t on
this side of the water, no matter how
powerful it may grow in Germany or
France.
| Why, then, do they not say SO? Why
can they not organize to prevent Its
further acquisition of power in our
cities or in congress?
The road for their attack lies open.
Men whose knowledge of socialism is
profound see in its general scheme
points SO weak as to invite intelligent
and destructive onslaught. The party
itself has been forced by the sheer
logic OF events to recede from some OF
the most fundamental doctrines laid
down by Karl Marx.
New times compel new remedies.
Bishop Carroll suggests that the hour
/ has come for meeting organized SO
clalism with organized antisocialism
The hint is plain Understanding of an
enemy's plans is the first requisite te
defeating them.
