Boycott On Veal

AS a possible remedy for the high
cost Of beef, domestic science experts
have advocated a boycott on veal
among the housekeepers Of the coun-
try. The movement has taken shape
in a number of cities. led by women
interested in practical reform, and
their hope is to make it national.
Food experts are lecturing over
the country this summer on the sub
ject. preaching the need of coopera-
ton among the women because they
are the BUYERS. They say there is
little food value in veal. in compsr-
ison with other meats, for the young
animal has not yet attained its value
for nutrition, so the slaughter is a
sacrifice in itself, in addition to in
creasing the cost of beef, as the sup
ply il decreased. In Australia. the
the land of great reforms, there is a
law prohibiting the sale of veal. and
the reformcrs hope to secure such a
national embargo here.

my Brothers Keeper"

The chains of duty which fate
throws about the stronger IN behalf
of the weaker in this drama of life
are illustrated at present in the Bal
kan trouble in Europe and the Mex.
lean trouble in America. The re-
sponsibility of an amicable settle
ment for these two international
complexities rests upon the stronger
nations of each continent, and the
fact that they feel this responsibility
attests to the spirit of brotherhood
in the twentieth century civilization
In both situations. the stronger
powers have been very 10th to resort
to Intervention by force, as they
should be by virtue of this same
strength. Only as a last resort. and
in the behalf of humanity, should q
stronger nation take up arms against
a weaker-a lesson. by the way
which the United States has only
learned since 1916. The Mexican
War of that date is conceded by his
torians to be the one blot on oul
martial history. when we fought
weaker nation for territorial gain.
