How soon mankind's food Will be
limited to a tasteless powder Is the
question which scientists are endeavor-
ing to answer. The problem Is due to
NJ. Efrront, the distinguished Belgian
chemist, who not being content with
having manufactured a substitute for
meat, composed Of the refuse food OBJ
tanned from hotels, etc. has turned his
attention to the utilization Of the nour-
ishing elements which form the basis
Of hay and forage.
M. Effronts argument is that it is
unnecessary that sheep and cattle
should transform these into the com,
pick product butchers meat. which is
only OF nutfitive use to man after It
has been digested and split up into its
simple constituents.
Accordingly the Investigator hopes to
replace these animals by composing a
chemical food from the simple elements
Of pasturage. The composite food has
already been discovered, but whether
1t is palatable~has not yet been made
public. At any rate, NJ. Enront conf
IDENTIFY predicts that the food problem
wilt finally be solved by a cheap, taste
less white powder Of immense nutri-
tive value.

QUIT cAL0MEL!
Thousands Are Turning From This
Dangerous Drug.
A Safe Vegetable Substitute is Olive
Tablets for the Liver.

DR.. F. NJ. Edwards, a prominent
physician of Ohio, has discovered a
new laxative and liver toner liz a COM
bination of vegetable materials, mixed
with olive oil, which is in effect al
most exactly like the old and I'M
Trustworthy calomel, except that there
are none of the bad after effects of
calomel.
DR.. Edwards has long been a foe Of
ealomel, though he recognized its value
aloP" with its dangers.
ne his distrust of the uncertain drug
eventually started him years ago to-
wards experiments with the view of
discovering a substitute. and he is to-
day in possession of the long .sought-for
combination, which is in the shape of
a little sugar-coated, Olive-oil colored
tablet.
The results Of II years. experience
and practice are embodied in these
marvellous little tablets.
They are called DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets. They oil the bowels, and their
effect on the liver has been the means
of relief to many Of DR.. Edwards reg
ular patients as well as to thousands of
others who have suffered and were
afraid Of calomel.
They are gentle in their action, yet
always effective. They bring about that
exuberance Of spirit, that natural
buoyancy vhich should be enjoyed by
everyone, by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of harmful i'm
purities. 10c and 25c per box.

SHOW ACTIVITY
Mass Meeting in Newark to
Start State Campaign.

Newark, Jan. 17:-Progresslves
opened their 1913 campaign last
night with q rally in the New Au-
ditorium that lacked nothing in
spontaneous enthusiasm. The coun-
ty committee sprang a surprise on
the gathering by declaring that 3d.
900 would be necessary for the ex-
pense of the year and the audience
in turn surprised the committee by
pledging $4,000. This amount was
subscribed by 1913 contributors.
Incidentally Frank A. Munsey's
scheme of a merger of Republican
and Progressive parties, through the
formation of a holding company, re-
ceived several hard knocks, n di-
rectly from former Senator Everett
Colby, and another, by implication In
the message of Theodore Roosevelt,
which was read, Beside Mr.. Colby.

Surely there must be a lot of salts

in the developments which have fol-
lowed his vote in the house against the
ton to submit the question to Il vote
of the people of the state, made in the
correctness of the position taken by
the Cascade county representative in
the house. Mr.. KirschWing declared,
when he voted against the removal of
the fair from Helena, that he was OPP
posed to the plan by reason of the I'M
fair manner in Which it had come up,
The attempt gsto Stampede the bill
through the Legislature was suspicious
il. the first place. 1t is too important
a question to be decided hastily, Mr..
k~irschWing stated that he would be
for the removal of the fair to Great
Falls if the proposition were submitted
on its merits. He was not favorable
TO any proposition which might be
used as n cluh OVcr his head or over
any other mans head. At his home,
SUNDAY afternoon, Mr.. kirschWing was
iEsultcd by some of his tOWnSmen We
are sure the people of Great Falls re
gret this outburst, now they havH
omc to think it over. They have
gained nothing by it; they have shown
a petty spirit. As things move along,
it seems to us that kirschWing has all
the advantage of the situation.

TALK OF NEW STATE
IS REVIVED
PLAN WOULD EMBRACE IDAHO
PANHANDLE AND WESTERN
WASHINGTON.

Wallace, Feb. 25,-!Special.)- The
proposition to create a new state, en-
bracing eastern Washington and
northern Idaho is being agitated again,
not only in Washington, whose legis-
lature is expected to adopt a resolu-
ton faVoring the plan at the present
session, but in some localities in the
Idaho ~"panhandle.' The Standpoint
Commercial club is vigorously advo-
eating the formation of a new state,
which it is believed would have Spo-
kane for its capital.
The local board of trade, and all
boards II commercial clubs in the
northern part of Idaho, are being
urged to adopt resolutions along the
same line, and to ask the representa-
tiNes and state senators to use their
efforts to secure similar action by the
Idaho legislature to that to be AXE
by Washington. Locally there is lit
tie sentiment in favor of the new state
owing to the diversity of industries
in the principal sections proposed to
be included.

Far beyond Wall street and throughout the business community Of
the whole United States there is much concern owe the hconlng
administration. There is no little anxiety concerning both the policy
and the personnel of Mr.. Wilson'S cabinet. Mr.. Wilson'S theories are
generally understood. They contain much that is admirable n
necessary to the restoration of political and industrial peace in the
United States. It is n thing, however, to diagnose a case properly
and quite another to apply effective and judicious remedies. Mr..
Wilson must recognize that he is o to deal with conditions nc
facts-not theories. He has had 10 practical experience in national
affairs. though it is to his credit that he has made a capable, eff
cent and hgh-ntnded governor of the state Of New Jersey, Mr..
Wilson has very decided and progressive theories upon the most vita
economic questions of the day All sound and disfnterested thinkers
getting back to reasonable and equitable competition, if we wish to
avert a political and social crisis of the most dangerous character.
Such economic movements, however, as have been at work in the
last fifteen or twenty years cannot &c arrested suddenly II violently,
any more than the "TWentieth Century Limited could be stopped
within the length of a city block without disastrous results. The
brakes will have to be applied judicf6usly. Mr.. Taft has been highly
efficient in arresting the trust mania, and under his administration
effective restraint has been steadily applied. Thus far no serious e
suits have followed, and the dire consequences predicted over the dis
solution of our great corporations have OF lnaterialized, and are
further from sight than yer. Should Mr. Wilson carry out the
policy of his predecessors in a moderate but persistent manner, he
will avoid business Generalization. Should he, however, start in to-
vigorously to break up the present industrial system he may provoke
serious consequences; not alone to himself and his party, but also to
the prosperity of the country as a whole. The Sherman lay is being
gradually and soundly interpreted by the supreme court of the
rer against monopoly. It is to be hoped that MI. Wilson will
recognize the delcacies as we'll as the difficulties of the problem
which he proposes to solve, and will be satisfied by progressing n
step at a time Mr. Wilson's book on the New Freedom" just off
the press reflects his particular theories, and they will probably be
extensively incorporated into his inaugural address, Needless to say,
a sudden application of these theories would be revolutionary and
highly demoralizng.

Marketing
VI he MiddIemeIl.
BY Frederic j. Haskin.

When the statement is made that
the farmer who breeds the stock and
fattens it, and who grows the grain
and other produce, gets less than hall
of the price the consumer pays at the
corner grocery; and when that infor-
nation is not a mere aurmise but a
conclusion based upon careful statis-
tical inquiry. it becomes a highly in
teresting thing to the to get
a glimpse at the processes by which
his dollar becomes a so cent piece.
An interesting picture of how the
process moves forward step by step
is afforded by a study of the middle
men in the beef industry, one of the
most highly organized of all III mar
kcting industries, In considering these
various steps, however, it is we'll to
keep in mind that in some stages of
the procedure unusual economies have
| been effected, and that but for these
it is hard to tell where the prices the
consumer would be called Upon to pay
for his steaks and roasts, would end.
For instance, by Strengthening close
to the cattle supply, the saving eff
lttltu III llit Trans lftI tIAl'I VI hilt
dressed beef, rather than of the cat
tie on the hoof, becomes a substantial
consideration Seven carloads of live
cattle make about three average car
loads of dressed beef. The difference
in the freight rate on a live and a
slaughtered steer between Kansas
City and New York amounts to about
$3.50 per head. In Strengthening on Il
large scale and the consequent utiliza-
ton Of the by-~prOductS, a saving OF
large proportions is effected.
When the Texas farmer sells his
stock cattle, a charge of. perhaps, a
dollar a head is made by the buyer for
the service. Then # costs about 10
cents a head to drive them to the rail-
road, $3.50 4 head freight to Montana
and the Dakotas, 20 cents Il head for
feeding en- route, six cents a hcad for
attendance. and Is cents a head for
driving from the station to the ranch,
or about $3.50 per head, all told. ON
the northern ranch this stock cattle
must DE converted into fat cattle, and,
of course, the rancher who docs it is
not in the business for the pleasure
there is in it. He probably adds some
thing to the value Of the steer besides
the cost Of putting on the surplus
meat. At any rate. it costs more to
get the fattened steer to and through
the stockNards at Chicago from the
northern ranch than it did to get him
through the first stage Of the journey
to market. The whole course of
transportation from Texas to Chicago
adds a cent a pound to a cent n a
half a pound to the value of the live
steer by the time he reaches the
packer. The profits of the buyers and
othcl middlcmen between grower and
packer probably bring the total up to
two cents a pound.
The packer, perhaps, pays six cents
a pound for the steer on the hoof. He
usually sells the dressed beef at c
margin of bou three cents above the
on-thc-hoof price, n figure that would
mean a heavy loss to him except fol
the by-products. To illustrate. q
steer which would cost him $50 on the
hoof. would net him less than sc
worth of dressed beef. If the packer

FROM FORT

For the second time within a COM

moved from Fort Missoula to prob
able war in the south. Most Of us
here remember when the TWcnty-fifth

ment to move in the war with Spain.
Now the Eighteenth has gone, prob
ably to participate in an active cam
paign in Mexico. The old Twenty
fifth had been at Fort Missoula for
seventeen years; the Eighteenth has
been here only about that number of
days. The former regiment gave d
good account of itself and we are sure
the latter will maintain h honor OF
the post and of the service. The
Eighteenth is traVcl-hardcned. 1t has

A CRY FOR HELP

For several weeks The Muscular has had pleasure in
printing the forecasts of Banker Henry Clews of New
York, relative to the security which Wall street felt to be
ahead with Woodrow Wilson in the White House. Mr.,
Clews has been, all this time, the original little optimist in
this regard. He has been certain that DR.. Wilson would
not throw down the financial interests and he has not been
backward in stating his opinion.
Mark now the change which has come over the banker
writer. He has yielded to a great extent. the position he
held regarding the president-elect He admits now that
there is a possibility that things may not be as bright tor
a conservative sort of alarm and utters a plaintive cry for
help. He is not boisterous in his S. 0. S. call, but he cries
for help, just the same.
Mr.. C1ews has been reading the reports Of the enactment
of the New Jersey antitrust laws, we suspect. They do
not look good. And he admits that he has been reading
the new Wilson book, The New Freedom, which contains
much that sounds to Wallstreet ears like heresy. But
here is what Mr.. Clews says; read it and read between the
lines, also:
