COMPLETE REVISION
OF THE BIBLE
Catholic Church Now Has the Matter
Under Way and Is Asking
for Funds.

ROME. Sept 19.-Announcement
was made today at the vatican that
the Right Rev. Abbot Gasquet, SUI
preme head of the monastic order of
the English Benedictines, and who
Is already in the United States on a
visit, has just been intrusted with a
special mission there by Pope Plus.
1t is hoped that Father Gasquet will
be able to secure contributions in
America that will make possible the
complete revision OF the Bible which
the Catholic church now has under
way.
The preparing Of revised text OF
the Bible that would stand the test
of all modern criticism and research
has been one OF the greatest ambi.
tions OF Pope Plus from the moment
he was elected pope ten years ago.
The amount Of money which 1t was
foreseen would be entailed made 1t
impossible for his holiness to under
take the work until in 1907 and now
with a goodly part of 1t completed,
he Is facing the necessity of having
to abandon 1t unless generous sub
scriptions are forthcoming.
The actual work Of the revision was
intrusted by Pope Plus in 1907 to the
Order OF the Benedictines. The work
has since been carried steadily on in
their monasteries IN all parts Of the
world.
Owing to the fact that the great
bulk of original Biblical manuscripts
and early texts are preserved in

now shipped out Of the territory. Of
the shipments 70 per cent go to the
markets at the east. Buffalo, Phila-
delphia, New York, Pittsburgh and
other cities.
Minnesota in 1912 produced 131,500,
600 pounds of butter. Only 10 per
cent of the amount was consumed in
the state, and of the remainder 20
per cent went to markets east of Buff
falo. In the same year North Dakota
produced 13,906,244 pounds of butter,
of which 11,S06,244 pounds Were avail
able for shipment. South Dakota pro-
duced 20,432,2S0 pounds of butter, of
which 1889, ,052 pounds were available
for shipment. '' So" ~<'& .,, -. ,'
The seventeen counties of northern
Wisconsin produced 25,555,84S pounds,
of which 23,259,000 pounds were avail
able for shipment.
In the same year the egg produc-
ton of Minnesota was $500 cars, of
which 5000 moved out of the state,
and 500 cars of poultry were shipped
from Minnesota. The tonnage of eggs
and poultry moving from the other
states involved is also large.
1t is not hard to figure out the eff
feet if the traffic in those products
moved to the east by the lake rather
than all-rail, with difference Of 40
cents per 100 pounds in the rate
With refrigerator facilities provided,
most of the traffic destined for Phila-
delphia, New York and other eastern
points would seek the lake route, es-
pecially since better time could be
made, considering delays in switching
at Chicago. and it is the opinion of
refrigerating experts that the prod
ucts could be delivered in the east in
better condition after transportation
by lake than by rail. with consequent
higher prices offered.
Butter, eggs and poultry are sold on
the basis of prices delivered at the
market. Obviously if the products
could be delivered, in better condition
in the east, prices would be held at
least to the present level, and the
producers would reap the benefit of
the reduced transportation charges.
The refusal of the boat lines to
provide facilities for refrigerated
transportation to date may be traced
to the fact that the package freight
boats, which are the only ones which
could be SO equipped, are owned and
controlled by the rail lines east of
Chicago, which obtain the traffic at a
higher rate in consequence Of the
water highway being closed to it.
With the eastern market opened on
more favorable terms to the dairy
men and poultry -raisers of the north
west, accelerated development may
be expected in those industries. For
that reason the case is Of immense
Importance and its result will be
watched with interest by all people
interested in northwest development
