Breaking wills is most difflcult

STEAK DOLLAR A POUND
Price Is Coming Unless We Raise
More Beef.

Chicago, Sept. 24.-"Unless the
farmers of the United Sta,es are edu-
Gated at once to the necessity OF
raising cattle, a period of national
decline will set in within the next ~
years. Porterhouse steak will be sold
al 81 a pound. and the American
working man will begin to lose initi-
alive and take on the characteristics
of the relocating Chinese"
This forecast was made Monday
night TO the Worlds correspondent
by Gustav Bischoff of st. Louis, pres
ldent of the American Meat Packers
association which opened its annual
convention in Chicago this week.
Mr.. Bschoff believes that the far
mer soon can be made to realize
conditions, and that the serious situ-
alton confronting the country can be
overcome before 81 beefsteak becom-
es a reality.
Within the last 10 years the per-
centage Of decrease in the cattle sup
ply has been large he said. IF
his decrease continues al the same
rate during the mex, 10 years calami-
y will follow.
This win mean more than mer,
privation. Ii will mean that the
working class OF America must live
on diet of rice and potatoes. And
II that era eve, sets in there will be
national decline. This decline will
be evidenced not only in racial char
lcteristics but in economic and bus.
ness conditions.
Packing houses will be closed up
and workingmen, who now are max
ng good wages and comfortable liv.
ings, will be thrown out of employ,
ment. Much OF the country's money
will go to foreign countries. We will
be nation of dependents.
Much of the success of the Amer,
can people. much of our virile force
and splendid enterprise, is due to the
fact that, as race, We are eaters OF
beef. Draw q comparison between
the meat eating Americans and the
relocating Chinese. What is more
reasonable than TO suppose that
should our working men be confined
to a diet OF rice and potatoes, their
characteristics will take on some
hing OF those of the Chinese
we must stop encOu aging the
farmers OF foreign countries to raise
cattle to ship TO us We mus, rather
encourage our own fa mers to devote
themselves to the cattle raising in
dustry. Our farmers should be taught
that they can proftably enter the
meat raising business.
I'VE do not need TO fear the com
J petition from Argentina or Australia
The beef that comes to us from those
countries is in poor condition.
THE southern States are adapted
to cattle raising. The South, as does
the West, needs to be encompasseC
within the educational campaign tha
must be established This education
al campaign is one Of the mos, ur
gent needs of the day"
To stimulate cattle raising. in or
der to avert the meat famine which
they say is imminent the American
Meat Packers association has vo,et
to raise 100000 with which to con
duct a campaign of education among
farmers and cattle raisers. The plan
outlined by President Bischoff p.o
vides for raising $4,000 a year for
five years 10 be spent in advertising
and instructing farmers in the advan
tages of cattle raising.

PLANS
To BE ALTERED.

As result OF the change OF the
boat schedules, it has been found me-
cessary to make several changes In
the dates of the Men and Religion
campaign. The campaign will, how
ever, begin on the same day as pre-
yiously announced, January %, but
viii close Wednesday afternoon Janu-
airy 20, two days earlier than at first
expected. A more intensive program
has been prepared for the visit of the
team, including the same number Of
features.
The committee In charge Of the spe-
cial functions of the campaign met
yesterday afternoon for the purpose
OF planning banquet to be held on
the afternoon OF January %, probably
at the Moana Hotel This will be
perhaps the largest gathering Of rep
resentative business and professional
men eyer held in the city; covers for
fully three hundred will be laid. In.
vitations and invitation lists are now
being prepared and the former will be
issued next week. Messrs Smith and

The supervisors have also reduced

there is much dissatisfaction with the
plan of having the territorial board of

there is some talk of asking the next

SCHOOL ATTENDANCE
SHOWING INCREASE

Statistics compiled by Superintend.
ent of Schools W. T. Pope from re.
ports which are beginning to come
into the department of public irlstruc.
ton from the various districts on the
attendance IN the public schools since
the close Of the holidays, show ap-
proximately $4,000 pupils are attend
ing the public. schools In the Terri
tory of Hawaii. As all Of the re-
ports have not as yet come to hand,
II d believed that this figure will be
increased somewhat The attendance
during the last term. which closed
with the beginning Of the holidays,
was 25,1S6, with Honolulu leading all
other districts in the Territory with
"a total Of 10000.
=: These figures show that there is
comparatively little change in the at
tendance after the holidays. The
places of some of the students who
fail to return after Christmas are
taken by the new scholars and in
this way the average for the year is
maintained. The problem of the
crowded conditions of the different
schools and has been remedied in the
best possible manner and in so far as
accommodations are concerned, Kau-
al probably leads all other public
school districts. That there is no
overcrowding in this district is due
to the fact that the school authorities
of Kauai added twenty-four additional
rooms to their schools and erected
another building. There is some over
crowding in the schools on Maui, and
according to Inspector of Schools Glib
son, the greatest number of accommo-
dations are needed on the schools in
Honolulu.

COAL IN THE PACIFIC

The dominating factor in the coal
production of the Pacific coast States
is still the heavy production of Cali
fornia petroleum which is used for
steam fuel to the almost entire ex-
clusion of coal. The production Of
coal in Washington in 1912 will pos.
silly show slight increase for domes-
tic purposes over the output in 1911.
II california and Oregon the produe-
ton OF coal is negligible. The con-
sumption Of California oil for fuel pur-
poses in 1912 was approximately ST.
100000 barrels, or more than four
times the equivalent of the total pro-
duction of coal in the Pacific coast
States.
