than ever. Combined estimates of the
crops that go to make up the food sup

ing, while the price of meat animals
on September 1, was far in excess of
the figures for the last two years.
The high cost of meat is a serious
reality" said James NJ. Pickens, of the
bureau of animal industry, and it is
now obvious that the rise in prices in
recent years is the natural result of an
actual shortage in production 1t is evil
dent also, that the country is feeling
an era of short production of meat and
that constructive means must be adopt
ed if the American appetite for this
class of food is to be supplied
Little hope for lower prices in meat
through the competition of meats from
Argentina, Australia and other beef
producing countries is seen by the ex
perts who declare that with the free
markets of England and other coun-
tries open to it meat can hardly be-
come plentiful and cheap in this coun-

Equally pessinistic views are
entertained with regard to the cotton
crop which is the poorest of any in
the last ten years with one exception

more neagre menus in the immediate

PENNSYLVANIA, New York Central,

The proposed increases stand as
suspended for three months, or 1or
such part of that period as may be
required for investigation No dehn-
