CALIFORNIA AND NORTHERN
CATTLE BUYERS ARE IN
VADING THIS SECTION

The California cattlemen are doing
a lot of hustling for cattle and sheep
i'll this section. They, with the Ne
rada Packing Company. are now
meeting a rival. as the Seattle and
Portland buyers are invading their
territory. This has resulted in the
home buyers and the California ca
tlemen making quiet but determined
raids into this section. where the cat
tie are tied up. The separate farms
are visited and there is hardly a dav
passes but that some of the buyers
are to be found scouting about this
section looking for cattle.
The scarcity of beef cattle is not
confined to the West entirely as the
reports from the Agricultural Bu-
reau confirm, the report OF a short

age OF beef in all quarters, 1t was be
lieved that the shipments from Aus
tralia would help timber up the mar

mand for the imported meats The

see his way through without any
hustling as the buyers will do their

and the fact that person can now
comfortably make the trip into the

INDUSTRY
THREATENED
POTATO MOTH SAID TO BE A
DANGER TO THE POTATO
CROP OF THE COUNTRY

California and Texas are blamed by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture, according to dispatch
sent from Washington, for the dis
trlbutlon of a pest that threatens ev-
cry table in the land. This pest is
the potato moth. The moth is
working havoc with the potato crop
III numerous parts of the country
and its ravages threaten to prevent
the planting OF vegetables in many
places. Early potatoes of California
and Texas are said to have spread
the pest.
The pest is l-established in
Southern California, particularly in
Los Angeles and Ventura Counties
1t has been reported also from Mon
terey, Alameda and San Joaquin
Counties. 1t has been reported also
from Sacramento County.
The tuber moth works on the ma
-urcd potato, and therefore, as d -.
rulc, the rotate /, in no danger until
after it is dug. As soon as. the pota-
toes are dug they should be placed
il bags and protected. The moth
develops in the potato and makes
channels all through it before emerg-
Ing in the winged form The States
O. Washington and Oregon have re
fus ed some California potatoes be-

SUGAR CONSUMPTION.

Each person in the United States
last year has used 81 pounds Of sugar.
the per capita consumption of this
article having increased from so
pounds in 1910. SO pounds in 1900 and
39.5 pounds in 1880. says statistics
gathered by the bureau of foreign and
domestic commerce. The total sugar
consumption this year will exceed s.
600. 100000 pounds, whereas In 1900
only 4.5o0.oo0,000 pounds were used.
The cost of sugar to the consumer this
year will approximate 100000 900.
which is more than s1.000,000 a day.
One-fourth of this sugar came from
the United States proper, another
fourth from Hawaii and Porto Rico.
and the remainder from foreign coun-
tries, chiefly Cuba. The large increase
this year in the production of beet
sugar in this country is noted. 1,4o0.-
100000 pounds having been raised.
against 1000, 100000 pounds In 1910
and less than half that amount in

BUSINESS SYSTEM REoRGANIzED

The United States treasury on Feb
l revolutionized its business system
and placed the ordinary fiscal transac-
tons of the federal government on a
modern basis. The change, it is de-
clared, will prevent in large measure
the temporary tying up in the vaults
of the sub-treasuries of large amount
of money available for circulation
without increasing the deposits of the
government in the banks.
The daily government receipts from
customs, internal revenue and other
sources are now placed with the ma
tional bank repositories to the credit
of the treasurer of the United States.
All checks of government disburs-
ing officers are drawn on the treasurer
and will be payable at any sub-treas-
ury or national bank depository in
any part of the country.
A national bank depository paying
one of these checks may Immediately
reimburse its specified government
account from daily receipts of customs
or internal revenue deposited with 1t
and forward to the nearest sub-treas-
ury only the remainder of the receipts.
This extends the clearing house prin-
ciple to the governments business
system
In the past all receipts in the shape
of checks for customs duties or inter
nal revenue taxes have been forward
caH IN ba Two II fn,. i'm
into actual cash. This process, which.
it is said, drew money into the treas
ury unnecessarily for limited time
at least. will now be avoided.
Also, it is declared, the change will
-obviate the payment by pensioners
and others of exchange on govern
ment checks.

RETAIN THE LARIAT.

The lariat has been retained by the
cavalry equipment board as part of
the new equipment of mounted troops.
AS cavalry marches for considerable
period of years repeatedly have ira
versed regions affording facilities for
rail transportation Of forage, and as
plenty of forage is laid down at the
picket lines in manuver camps. a
great many officers accept these con-
ditions as those that probably always
will prevail. AS a natural result many
have given little attention to the prob
lem of subsfsting horses in the field
under circumstances that always have
prevailed in war and probably always
will-lack of transportation.
There are those that have main
tanned that the growth of rail and
water transportation in every direc-
ton during recent years has created
the probability that our cavalry in fu-
ture wars can look confidently to the
ample supply of forage, and therefore
a resort to grazing will be unneces-
sary This view has been disturbed
as recently as last year. when for
several months our cavalry was con-
ironted by the possibility Of service
in Mexico. a country strikingly bar
rem CT transportation facilities in most
districts.
1t is for these reaosns that the lariat
has been retained. in order that horses
under restraint may be put out to
Craze.

NAVY RECRUITING GAINS.

The navy department has announces
that hereafter it will be possible for
applicants for enlistment in the navy
to be examined in cities where there
is marine recruiting office, but no
navy recruiting office. The new order
will apply in Peoria, H.; Rock Island,
Ill; Lansing, Mich; Tiffin. o.; Front
Royal, Va; Grand Forks. N. D., and
st. Joseph, Mo. There will, however,
be no recruiting for the marine corps
at navy Offices, as the complement of
the marine corps is filled. Men whose
preference is for the navy may apply
in any of the cities mentioned and be
given preliminary examination. If
accepted they will be sent at govern
ment expense to the nearest recruit
ing station 70 complete their enlist
ment
The navy now is short about 5000
men, or between . and 10 per cent. Of
it's authorized strength. The British
navy Is short about 10000 men, or
about the same proportion, but the
British face greater difficulties be-
cause their larger number must be
drawn from areas in which recruits
previously have been gathered and
are thus practically exhausted.
Recruiting in the United States
navy is found to show decided gain.
the greatest single factor in enlist
ments. according to navy officials, be-
ing the recommendation of men in
the service or who have been dis.
charged
