en1ng statistics of cattle shortage are current.
II these things are true confirmed meat eaters
VIII have to reform, increase thesr earning
power or go hungry. They will probably in
crease the grain, fruit and vegetable COM
ponents of their rations. It Will do no harm,
because big meat diet is not indispensable.
There appears verify in the figures. for they
are government figures, that since 1900 the
population of the United States has increased
over % per cent. while the supply of beef
cattle has declined more than 20 per cent,
and the slaughter OF calves has increased 500
pr cent.
Argentina, of the great beef-producing
regions, reports diminishing supply of cattle,
three years of drouth were suffered there. and
the dreaded hoof and mouth disease rayaged
herds Cows and heifers were also slaugh-
tered too heavily in order TO supply the beef
demand of Europe. All this appears to be
true, because legislation is pending in Argen-
tina which seeks to limit the number of cattle
slaughtered to the probable yearly increase,
and it is sought to prohibit the slaughter of
cows under seven years old, and calves en-
tirey.
Australian cattle breeding has been hin
dered by seasons of drouth the cattle industry
OF Mexico has been crippled Ls revolution and
England will probably eat all the beef that
Canada can raise.-Washingto Star

For nearly year thsre has been an acute
labor famine in the Pittsburg district. The
Plttsburg Industrial Commission, which has
given much study TO economic and sociological
problems, has reacheA the conclusion that the
increasing scarcity OF labor for the mills has
been due TO the back-to-the-farm movement.
More than $500 foreign laborers. mostly Huns
and Austrians. have thrown up their Jobs in
the factories aid mills and obtained employ
ment in farming, truck gardening and fruit
raising In the Western country 1t was ex-
pected that they would return to the mills
when the winter began. but they appear to be
so we'll satisfied with their change of occu-
patton ~taat-they- have-notc come back, and
having once tasted the sweets of living out
III the open, there is not much likelihood that
they will return to the cramped conditions
under which they have lived
This movement to the farms is good thing
for the workers, and an even better thing for
the community generally, as 1t means larger
food crops and, eventually, cheaper living

Resignation of MiIlerand.

The resignation OF Millerand as minister Of
war in the French cabinet Is decidedly unfor-
tunate He has rendered distinguished service
to his country and has been, perhaIs, the most
efficient minister OF war that France has known
ia the Third Republic. He has done much to
restore the military prestige Of the republic,
as even his enemies admit, and II is doubtful
il in all France be found man equal to
him as director of the department of war.
The whole trouble is an echo of the Dreyfus
incident and is caused by the reinstatement
in the army OF the Marquis du Patty de Clam.
who was VIGOROUSLY active in sae conspiracy
TO fasten on Dreyfus the crime of treason. The
marquis was entirely discredited at the time.
lie is however a man of ability in a military
way, able TO be of distinct service in the ter
ritorial army, Millerand was merely carry
ing out a promise which his predecessor had
made. which he felt In duty bound to do The
reinstatement was not initiated by him. Never
theless, the Dreyfus affair is still such bit
ter controversy that no man touch 1t with
! impunity. But for the critical foreign situa-
| tion the entire cabinet would have gone out
