A MOUNTAIN THAT DIED
cleveland Plain Dealer. J

A mountain is dying out in Wyom
ing. One of the big rugged granite
hills Of the Rockies, cast up from the
depths ages ago, has suffered NOR
tai hurt.
1t bears the name of Sherman Hill j.,
the name given it being in honor CT
the distinguished general of the Unitei
States army. 1t is historic point in
the Rockies for it was the one spot n
that section over which a trail was
found before railways were built It
was over the same trail the Union Pa
ciic engineers laid the tracks when
the steel rails were stretched fron
coast to coast
For some reason, and scientists have
not yet found that reason, the red
granite is disintegrating. In place of
being the solid, immovable mountain
of stone, it is a great mass of mater
ial easily handled and found useful
Years ago the discovery of its use
fulness was made and since that tim J
the Union Pacific has taken out MIL
lions of tons of the disintegrated rock,
using it for ballast along the tracks
The mountain, once the barrier ID
mans progress, has become in its
death the friend of man and is used to
insure comfort and speed in travel.
In its disintegrated state the mass
may be picked up with steam shovel
and handled with ease. Distribute
along the tracks it becomes partially
plastic, adapts itself to the purpose OF
ballast is practically dustless, and re-
tains its position so as to insure a
permanent and safe roadbed. Unlike
many other substances used for ba'-
last it does not absorb moisture and SO
does not tend to hurry the decay OF
ties.
Ultimately the disintegrated grant
Will be used to ballast all the lines q
the Union Pacific. Nearly three mil
lion tons have been employed in the
ballasting of the new second track the
road has completed across the state o.
Nebraska and several other million
tons had already been placed on the
main line. Ultimately much of the
mass of Sherman Hill will have been
carried away for use and the great rcd
cash in the mountain range will mark
the spot where ance stood bold and
defiant, the mountain that died.

SOARING MEAT BILLS

Cattle raising continues in Argen-
tine and other countries of South An
erica, as reported by Robert E. Con-
way who has just returned from q
tour of inspection, are such as to give
consumers of beef hope that thei1
butcher bill will not much increase
during the next few years. We're wa
to be dependent upon the home supply
the prices of meat might become 50
altitudinous as to get beyond the reata
of the man of ordinary means.
The number of cattle in this coun-
try is decreasing, while the number Of
consumers is increasing. This is the
general condition, but this year there
are special causes of decreases. The
dry season has made feed scarce and
high, and farmers have begun to send
their stock to market to get rid of it.
This includes breeding stock, which
means more than the normal de-
crease in the the supply next year.
Mr.. Conway says that fine cattle
sell in the market at La Plata at $40,
which would bring 1925 in st. Louis.
This leaves a good margin for the cost
of shipment of carcasses to this coun-
try. The American packers are es
tablishing extensive plants there. He
also says that vast plains in Brazil
make fine cattle ranges, and that
great herds are being created on them
which will be a source of a worlds sup
ply of meat in a few years. He also
calls attention to the fact that the mum
Der OF cattle is increasing rapidly, be-
cause the growers do not send thelt
heifers to market, as is done by the
small cattle growers in this country.
Taken largely, this might be consid-
cred discouraging to the live stock in
dustry on the part of farmers in the
United States, but it is not. Prices
are high enough now to make live
stock farming under the new system
of crop rotation, alfalfa culture and
silage feeding, an extremely profitable
business, and there is such an in
crease in the consumptive demand
here, as well as all over the world,
that the South American supply is not
likely to reduce them much, if any.
Consumers will have to be satisfied
if the new source of supply succeeds
in checking the upward soaring of
meat prices. 1t ought to be possible
for our farmers to supply us at pres
ent prices and become wealthy in do
ing it, under the plan of live stock
farming being urged upon them by
all the expert agriculturists of the
country. If they do not try it they
will not only miss the prosperity they
might have, but the poor consumer
will have to watch his meat bill soar
to the vanishing point of inability to
pay it.

Thou hast. Il beauty sweet and rare,

WHY CONTINUE THE TARIFF
DEBATE!

In our Washington dispatches yes
terday it was stated that it was ex-
pected that a vote in the Senate on
the tariff bill would be reached by
Sept. Is. That means that the bill
will be ready for the Presidents sig
nature along about Oct 1.
But why not hasten action on the
bill? 1t is conceded that it will be
passed and also that the changes that
will be made in it could be made in a
few days if attention were given to the
items in the various schedules in
which there is a probability of chang
es. The time of the Senate is now be-
ing occupied by the Republicans in
making speeches which are
not expected to accomplish any thin$a
certainly nothing in the direction OF
changes in the bill
1t is true that there is no way Of
shutting off speeches but the Repub-
lican senators themselves ought to see
the Importance of closing the discus
sion and letting the bill come to a
vote. Business is being retarded and
prosperity halted simply that speeches
may be made apparently for political
effect in the congressional campaign
next year and the presidential cam
paign in 1916 AS matter of fact the
effect the speeches will have in those
campaigns will be almost impercep-
tible.
The Senate doesn't listen to the
speeches and the country doesn't read
them, but every day imports are pill
ing up in the custom houses. Recently
it was said that more than 100000,
600 worth of commodities were stored
in the New York Custom House wait
ing for the Presidents signature to
the tariff bill.
If there were any probability that
radical changes would be made in the
bill the situation would be different.
The Republicans admit, however, that
there isn't any such probability. Some
of the Republican senator's are not
expected to return to vote on the bill.
1t does seem to be very big mistake
therefore to keep business marking
time while Republican senators de-
liver speeches-able speeches though
they may-to which nobody is pay
ing any attention. The Democrats
have made up their minds to pass the
bill substantially as it is. The Demo
cratic caucus of each branch of Coz
gress has passed upon it and that set
ties the matter. The bill is as fivxed
as if it were cast in a mold of iron.
Then why shouldn't the Republican
senators stop the flow of their orator.
and let the bill pass? Their oratorv
is costing the country very great
deal more than it is worth, even though
high value should be placed upon it.
The country wishes the bill to be
passed and signed as quickly as pos
sibie and its wish ought to be COM
piled with.-Savannah News.
