The consumption of dog meat as a. food in Germany, probably as a result of high meat prices, increased greatly in 1912. Every year since 1907 has shown a considerable gains but the 1e12 figures are striking. Against 1911, in which year the number of dogs slaughtered under official lnspec- ton was 6,568, the total for 1912 rose by 1,579 to S.182. These figures, more over, are but small fraction of the total consumption of dog flesh, for a, majority of the animals are slaughter ed at home without che formality of an inspection
 Saxony remains, as always, the chief center for dog slaughtering, recording 4,288s dogs killed as against 3,54O in 1911. Prussia, however, is in second place with 2,e3O in 1912 as against 1,917 in the preceding year.

RICHARD WAGNER WAS HARD PUT TO
 PAY HIS WINE BILL
Great Composer Was Often in F1nan.
 ciai Difficulty His Letters Show.

Berlin. Aug. s.-E1even hitherto ner have come to light in connection with the Wagner Memorial Exhibit now being held in the municipal rau- scum of history at Leipsic. All were written by the famous composer be- tween 1864 and 1871 to his wine deal CTS They .show that he liked good wine, and that sometimes he had trou- sble in paying for 1t. The first letter written in Munich in November, 1864 is typical of all. He addresses the dealer as most honored sir" thanks him for the last shipment, and con- tinues:
 'I beg you to renew as soon as pos sible my supply by g, considerable con signment of half bottles of the table wine From 60 to 10O. bottles of each variety would about meet my needs. Regarding payment, will you have the Kindness to state your wishes. In general it best suits my financial cir cumstances to make a large payment on fixed day; this is easier than4o make smaller payments at indefinite periods. You need have no uneasi- ness if the reckoning climbs bit,r since the peculiar character of my in comes makes 1t easy for me to have a large sum at my disposal at one time.
 In June, 1867, Wagner ordered 15O bottles or req ana LaS SaK1S aKf1OuaL or white wine, and in November of the same year another supply but this time in casks, since he was in Lucerne, where wine In bottles is made un- thinkab1y dear by the cantonaI tar iff''
 Tn October, 1869, Wagner wrote to his 'tmost honored sir and friend 7 begging more time on an account. The following April he again made excus- es for failure to pay, and in October he was again forced to ask for an ex- tension.
 The firm evidently granted the re- quest, for Wagner wrote in January, 1871, from Lucerne, expressing his thanks and continuing naively:
 4.In order to maintain our business connections, wish you would send me a cask tabout 46 ga1lons1 of the wine which drink so regularly.
 This is the last of the eleven letters, Whether the great composer finally paid the bill does not appear.
