A WARNING has been sent out by
the department of Agriculture that
meat prices are going to be higher,
if we depend on Our own supply.
1t says the ranges are being cut up
and fenced off for farms, and the
increase in the price of corn and
other feed has made cattle feeding
risky business even at the present
high prices. AS proof of its lugu-
brious prophecy it says that in 1907
there were 81. .566 900 beef cattle in
the United States, while at the begin
ming of the present year there were
but 36, ,O3O,OOO. This is areduction
of Is, $50 900, or 80 per cent. In
only FIVE years we have sold and
slaughtered almost one-third of our
herds, besides the natural increase
during that period, says the St Louis
Globe For further
proof that the meat supply has thus
been rendered short, attention is cal
led to the fact that. during the first
three months of this year, as COM
pared with the same period last year
there were slaughtered at govern
ment inspected places .O85. .173 less
animals, being 15S, ,2S9 cattle, 59,-
AIS calves, 1,263,667 hogs, and
6O3,742 sheep. There has been this
much less on the markets-the
amount shipped abroad not being
reckoned- then there was a year
ago. Last year there was an excess
of marketing of animals. owing to
high prices both of stock and feed.
The worst of this rushing of stock
to market last year was that breed
ing animals were sacrificed and
lambs and calves as we'll thus insur-
ing falling off both on births and
future beef and helping to make the
shortage permanent. The only
remedy for this meat shortage, aside
from importations from Australia
and Argentina, is an increase of
stock farming on the small farms
of the interior regions, particularly
the corn belt. Farm experts
everywhere are advising the farmers
to go into stock raising, and the
particular inducement held out to
them is the wonderful feeding value
and fertility restoring properties of
alfalfa.

The worst habit that boys can
fall into is that of loa6ng around
on the streets at night. 1t is then
they cast their lot in slippery places
when at any moment they are like
ly to fall from grace. All good
and noble lessons taught them by
their mothers are there counteract-
ed and nulliied. They learn moth
ing that is good-but everything
bad. The boys who spend their
evenings in the sacred precincts of
home with good books for their
companions are the future hope of
the republic; they will fill our legis-
lative and congressional halls, and
sit in judgement upon men and
measures, while the boys who run
thestreets will fill our penitentaries,
almhouses and lunatic asylums.
Parents who are responsible for
these broken laws of decency will
have broken hearts and bowed down
heads in the awakening years that
will inevitably follow.

the United States. Such form OF
transportation would be a great con-
venience to the travelling men
and to the firms that employ them.
1t also would be very acceptable to
the general public. which will wish
the travellers success in their cam
paign. There are at present
interchangeable mileage books is
sued to cover the railways in the
various sections into which the
country has been divided. A
book good OH forty-two roads is on
sale in the ticket Offices in St. Paul.
1t is good anywhere in this part
of the Northw est. These books
are a great convenience to travellers
who use the railway extensively.
If the railroad companies find II
practicable to issue books that are
good on forty-two lines, it would
seem as if there should no insur
mountable difficulty in the way OF
| putting out a book that would take
the owner anywhere in the coun.

State Births

Figures prepared by the state
board of health show an increase
of ZOO births in the state for 1912,
as compared with the previous year.
The official figures of the Office
show that 48,158 children were
born in Minnesota in 1912. The
births for 1911 numbered As, ,122,
and for the previous year 43. $40.
Minneapolis reported 6,605 births
in 1912 and St. Paul 4,571. Min

year of 752 and St. Paul 210.

the institute cures" when he
could make them up himself in
exactly the same form for from one
to FIVE cents.
The third group of ,,cures" in
cludes homemade remedies, which
certain self deluded individuals be-
1ieve will cure tuberculosis. Among
them are such things as onions. le-
mons, coal smoke, pigs blood, al
cohol, dog oil, teas of various
kinds, and variety of diet, includ-
ing goats meat, clabbered milk.
and a score of other articles.
These are not usually advertised for
profit. but are usually given publi-
city IN various ways.
The consumptive is the most
hopeful individual in existence
when the question of cure is sug-
gested. The National Association
has stated that no specific cure fo:
tuberculosis has been discovered,
except the well-tried hygenic- die
tetic method of fresh air, rest and
good food.
The Ely miner., 1913-07-25

WITHIN the last FIVE years, no less
than 500 fraudulent cures for
consumption have been tried upon
thousands of victims in the United
States, and the exploiters of these
nostrums have reaped a clear profit
of not less than $50, 100000. This
is an estimate made by The Nation
al Association for the study and
prevention of tuberculosis in a
bulletin issued last week.
The National Association esti-
mates that not less than $40, 900, 900
is invested in the business of manu-
featuring and exploiting fake cures
for tuberculosis, and that the an
nual income from these concerns
and individuals is 1000, 900.
About one-third of this amount is
spent for advertising, leaving pro-
fit of SIC, 900, 900 year, which is
blood money" taken from
credulous consumptives.
Three kinds of consumption cure
frauds are distinguished by the As
sociation, the first being the insti-
tute fraud" where psuedo-h -hospi-
tai or dispensary is estab lished
and the wiley doctor" or profess
sor" administers treatments" at
so much per head. These concerns
also carry on mail order business
with great profit. The second
group of cures contains over a hum
dred different kinds of drugs and
patent" devices, any of which
may be purchased at a drug store.
Usually the consumptive is charged
from 81 90 to $500 for these and

Mesdames, Smith, Wright and
Walsh chaperoned a large party on a
blue-berry picking trip Thursday.
The party took boats to the head of
the lake then the train to the berry
hills where they found berries in alb

been taken from the hills. The rasp-
berry crop appears to be failure this

County Equalization Board

Taxpayers having complaints to
make on the 1913 personal property
valuations will be given an audience
before the county board of equaliza-
ton which will hold its annual
sessions at the courthouse for the
next two or three weeks.
Considerably less work confronts
the board this year than last, owing
to the fact that it is an off year for
real estate valuations. Valuations
on real estate are placed every even
numbered year and consequently
are not to be altered by the equaliza-
ton board this year.
However, where assessors have
raised valuations on real estate be-
cause of improvements which have
been made since the May 1912
valuation or where improvements
assessed in 1912 have been destroy
ed by fire and the proper deduction
has not been allowed by the 1913
assessor, property holders may take
the matter up with the equalization
board for relief.
After the equalization board ad-
justs the valuations to suit its ap-
proval. the assessment rolls will be
returned to the auditor. who will
prepare a corrected abstract and
forward it to the state tax COM
mission at St. Paul. The final
changes in the valuations, if any
are made, will be made by the state
tax commission.

EvELETH has taken time by the
forelock and has begun active op-
position to the "town-killing"
tactics of the Lake Superior Tax
Association. Eveleth will doctor
up its charter sufficiently to give
its council a chance to conduct the
affairs of the city with out receiv-
instructions from headquarters. {"
The News says: The Lake Su-
perior Tax association, recently
organized by the mining companies
operating on the Minnesota ranges
for the purpose of preventing the
illegal expenditure of public funds,
is very likely behind the injunction
and mandamus proceedings brought
against the city of Ely to stop the
building of sidewalks and sewers
and paying for such work out of
the general fund of the city. This
is forerunner of what is going to
happen all along the range. And,
of course the mining interests are
acting within their rights. Both
Ely and Eveleth, if these cities are
to go on with necessary improve
ments, such as pavements, sewers,
ETC., must first adopt new and
more liberal charters. Right now
is the time for Eveleth to take
action. Let every voter be present
at the meeting of the Commercial
club Friday night when this ques-
tion will be considered.

THE proceedings of the school
board published on the last page of
this paper shows some interesting
figures. Owing to the light attend
ance at the annual meeting held
Saturday afternoon the board decid-
ed to publish the entire list of mat
tiers presented atthe annual meeting.
This will prove interesting reading
for the people. 1t was very evil
dent that the citizens were satisfied
with the conduct of affairs of the
district as only a limited number
attended the meeting Saturday.
This speaks we'll for the district.
The proceedings show that during
the year there had been received a
total of $S4 ,O83.39 and with the
balance on hand at the beginning
of the year of $32, 1886 made a
total of receipts for the year of S116,-
456.95. The disbursements for
the year figure $50, ,231.47 leaving
balance on hand of $50, ,225. .48.
Against this there are outstanding
orders of $SS.97. The board also
recently paid one of the state loan
bonds of S., 900 in advance. The
bond paid came due in 1916 and by
its premature payment the interest
was saved. Two other bonds will
be due in 1914 and 1915 for S., 900
each. There is now $500 in the
bond sinking fund and it is propos-
ed to retire another bond shortly
The bonds are not figured as liza
bility as they take care of them
selves and the district is free from
debt with a fair balance in the
treasury. The district has as fur
ther assets, buildings and grounds
valued at S21O, ,342.55, with acces-
sories of $35 ,61S.1S or a total OF
SPAS, ,96O.73. An inventory of stores
on hand also shows total of ST.
374 which can in all truth be classed
as cash on hand. Insurance to the
amount of $14O, 10000 is carried on
the district buildings. This is a
gilt-edged showing and one of
which the patrons of District No.
12can we'll feel proud.
