ABouT BUTTER.

N ERHAPS the New Jersey women are tired OF
the slow wav in which the men deal with the
question of the high cost of living, IT IN faet the
men have any definite plan OF dealing with It
which NAV be doubted The New Jersey women,
some fifteen thousand of them, are arouseu' No'
only is there complaint of the high price OF ou.e'
bur there is also complaint Of short weight butter
Mr.. William A. waldron, superintendent OF
weights and measures of New Jersey, mas gwen
d;rections that after February all print and ron
butter offered for sale shall have the net weign'
marked plainy on the wrapper he mas aneaoy
received assurances from more than lOO Sluos Vi
women TO the effect that they VIII support @ n'nl
hv reporting any violations OF the law II 'uey
do So the crusade against short welght Du'''' WI"
be effective.
The New York Grand Jury has also begun an IN
vcstigaton of the operations OF the so-ealled put
ter trust. and it is believed that combination
exists inimicabe to the public welfare and mere
fore a conspiracy amenable TO law.
Men who carefully and deliberately plan to en-
rich themselves by exploiting the public with eX-
tortionate charges for necessities, cannot expect
10 receive lenent consideration from the public
The New York plan will be TO put the manipula-
TORS of the butter trust in jail if it shall be proved
that such trust exists. That is perhaps, the only
effective method of dealing with extortionists And
II would be we'll for the government, with ITS
larger scope Of authority TO make an inVesuga-
tion. The people are suffering from the heavy
burdens of the high cost of living @nd they do not
believe that this high cost is due TO natural con-
ditions. -.
From time to time charges have been maze tna'
q creamery trust existed but in the past these
charges have not been sustained.
From government statistics it appears that thirty
wears ago less than per cent OF the butter
made in, this country was of creamery manutae-
ture. In 1890 IS per cent Of the butter marketed
came from these factories Ten years later, the
creameries we're making 80 per cent OF the two
billion pounds of butter made in 1909, the cream
cries turned out 625,000,O00 pounds The value
of their products increased from S2575O,OOO TO
S2745O0OOO in the thirty years.
The creamery establishments Of the United
States increased their output of butter lS per cent
between 1904 and 1909. Their output of cheese de-
creased in that period But the value of the cream
cry products increased 90 per cent.
The tendency toward combination is shown in
the creamery business as in other industries There
we're e,142 such establishments in 1900 Four
years after there we're 1926 and in 1909. s.47e.
1t may be- however that a trust has been formed
which is able TO manipulate prices, or at least a
few men seem to have secured control of the ont.
put of butter that goes to the great cities With
the increasing output of butter as shown by the
foregoing figures il would seem as if there shouls
be no large advance in the prices. There has beef
no amaIgamation of creameries such as to lead t.
che belief that huge trust existed.

THIRD-TERM QUESTION.

Baltimore American.
Now that the third-term question
has been made a test of public senti-
ment and the response has been
strong and unmistakable against any
kind of quibbling over the matter, the
atmosphere is cleared and the course
of the Republicans is manifest. 1t Is
not to be expected that Roosevelt will
be pitted against Taft in the conven-
ton. 1t is not to be supposed that
anything more will happen than that
he may be accorded a manifestation
OF respect for himself and his posi-
ton as a former President.
Those who are visiting Roosevelt
these days come away convinced that
he will not be a candidate. In such
case the third-term issue will not be
precipitated in the Chicago convention
Seven hundred and seventy-two votes
for Taft, as against three hundred that
radical adversary could possibly
muster, does not look promising. Tho
third-term test has killed the Roose-
welt boom. but were not this the case
Taft would have little reason to be
apprehensive as to the outcome. There
is now every indication of his selec-
tion upon the first ballot and this
prospect is becoming stronger witt
each day that discloses the fallacious-
ness of the effort to make Roosevelt
candidate.

COLONEL ROOSEVELT.

- GOLONEL ROOSEVELT can hardly afford to
~ hold out much longer that is if there are
still doubters and of course there arc, as to
whether he will accept the nomination for Presi-
dent
The letter Of Mr.. Abbott of the Outlook Company
saying that if called upon Mr.. Roosevelt Will ao-
oept should come pretty nearly making 1t clear that
Mr.. Roosevelt is in the race.
The former president still has a loop nole
through which he could crawl if it should develop
that the national call is not sufficiently loud 10
be seriously heard by him. So long as he does
not speak himself, Mr.. Roosevelt can retreat
Mr. Abbott is close friend of the former pres
ident works in the same Office with him, and II
is reasonable to suppose that he conferred with
Mr.. Roosevelt before he sent the letter to former
Governor Stokes of New Jersey. That letter,
which was printed yesterday, says that Colonel
Roosevelt could not refuse the nomination II ten
dered him.
Other reports confirm the Abbott letter 1t is
said that Mr.. Roosevelt has written TO friends say
ing that while he is not candidate and shall nor
be one he does not intend TO tie his hands so tnat
it would become difficult or impossible Tor MN
to serve the people if the necessity arose
If the Roosevelt men control the Republican
convention they need have no fear that ne vii
not accept the nomination.

Editorial Opinion
no COLD.sT0RAGE TERRAPIN.


New York Times.
We regret to note, in the Observer,
of Charlotte, N. c., to which Major
J. c. Hemphill, it's editor, contributes
daily many reflections both wise and
witty on the general human comedy
and the immediate political situation,
a suggestion that the delegates to the
Baltimore convention are to be fed on
cold-storage terrapin and canned oys-
ters. This is shocking. Would
Major Hemphill expose the representa-
tives of the national Democracy to pto-
maine poisoning?
Maryland's boasted terrapin and
Chesapeake oysters, to be sure, add
much to the pleasure and comfort OF
life IN Baltimore. But the terrapin
blooms not in summer, and cold stor-
age terrapin is nothing in the world
but Philadelphia dry-picked turtle
meat, of which terrapin stew is fash
toned in the New England industrial
centers. AS for canned oysters, they
are exclusively a delicacy Of the Mid
die West.
Baltimore is proud of being the Con.
vention city, and will live up to its
pride. II will feed the delegates OF
watermelon. canataloupe, asparagus
with hollandaise sauce, and ice-cream
The prevailing beverage will be icec
tea. The mint julep may be same
what in evidence, but delegates who's.
appetities are more intelligent thar
their eyesight will avoid il.

TowN,s wATER SYSTEM.

Il would like to know how long Nm
16 gauge galvanized steel will probably
last in ground of gympsum formation,
where steel is made into spiral pipe
and used for water main? This is
for prospective water system for a
town whose council wants a flow
line four and one-half miles long

feet head in above distance and
want to provide supply enough for

ing the above system, in connection
with a stand pipe lex 60 inches.-wm
Haviland, Woods County, Okla.
Some little time ago, I looked up
the matter Of the life Of steel pipes
when laid in the ground have found
that this varied largely on account OF
the conditions of the soil in which it
is laid. In some cases, the pipe had
been in the ground twenty-five or
thirty years and was still in good con
dition In other cases, the pipe had
to be taken out after having been ia
the ground only three years.
would Judge that II your ground
is gypsum formation that number
IS gauge galvanized pipe would only
last a little while. as the sulphuric
acid would rapidly attack the zinc
coating II this pipe was thoroughly
asphalted both on the inside and out
side, it would probably last longer
than the ordinary steel pipe.
In regard to the size Of your fiow
line, your letter is a little indefinite.
If the $50 feet of head we're entirely
used up in driving the water through
the pipe, l figure that it would be suf-
ficient to drive about 10000 gallons
through in twenty-four hours. This,
however, leaves absolutely nothing
for pressure at the town where the
water is delivered. So that II 150
feet is the total amount Of head avail
able, it leaves absolutely nothing
with which throw the fire stream
or even to force water into the second
stories Of the different buildings.

ces, you should not put In a pipe Of
less than six inches In diameter, and
eight inches would be far preferable.

WHEN THE STOMACH CALLS
Feeling Which Common Humanity
knows as Hunger Is Explained
Fully BY tho Scientist.


The answer looks easy Any small
boy. schoolboy or other, would say,
why, hunger is just wanting some
thing to eat and wanting It bad" But
the doctors find that 1t isn't so easy.
It seems. according to an ex-eathe-
dra utterance IN the Journal of the
American Medical Association, that
emptiness Of tie stomach has nothing
to do with hunger It IS not due
to the secretion Of any sort of acid
In the stomach. nor to congestion Of
.he gastric glands. Professor Cannon,
in this article in the journal aforesaid.
attributes hunger to contraciions Of
the stomachs muscular walls. In the
doctors words Hunger IS normally
the signal that the stomach IS con
tracted for action; the unpleasantness
Of hunger leads to ealing; eating
starts gastric secgstion, distends the
contracted organ. initiates the move,
ments Of gastric digestion and abol-
ishes the sensation" Here's to the
abolition Of the sensation; may there
always be something with which to
start the gastric secretion"
