Washington. Oct. 17.---Experts Of
the department Of agriculture an
nounce that food crops and meats are
scarce. Asa result the high cost Of
living will continue to soar.
The prices of meats September l
was far in excess Of the figures for
the last two years and the estimates
OF the crops that provide food supplies
for the, American tables proved dis
tcouraging. X Il
1.-THE high cost Of meat is a.serious
reality" said James M. Pickens Of the
bureau OF animal industry. It is now
obvious that the rise in prices in re
cent years is the natural result OF an
actual shortage in production. It is
evident, also, that constructive means
must be adopted IL the American ap-
petite for meat is to be satisfied"
/ Little hope for lower prices OF meats
through competition from Argentina,
Australia and other beef producing
countries, is seen by the experts, who
declare that, with the markets OF Eng.
land and other countries open to the
supply, meats can hardly become
plentiful and cheap in this country. :

! Leaky Radiator Stops Car.

All
Z It may not seem possible that q leak
IN the radiator would kill motor and
prevent further movement Of the car
for more than an hour, but such was the
case Of one OF the Indiana Pacific tour
lists. The trouble, .of course, was not
due primarily to the radiator leak, but
the magnetic being directly behind the
point of leakage, 1t was affected and
refused to give up any current. The
water coming from the puncture in the
radiator was blown back on to the
magnetic, due to the force Of the wind.
with the result that the breaker
points were short -circuited continually
by the water The driver examined
every part Of the motor and never
dreamed of looking at the magnetic,
for the instrument never gave any
trouble, and being Of good make was
not expected to die. A glance at the
radiator leak and another at the mag
neto near by concluded the search for
the faulty part. The leak was repaired
and the magnetic cleaned and dried,
and the car continued on it's journey
to the coast.
