This study will embrace an investi-

Way TO Increase supply.
Internationally the largest hope for a
considerable increase in our meat supply
lies in: First sympathetic attention TO the
production of larger animals in the settled
farming areas OF the country, especially in
the southS second, increasing attention to
the smaller animals. such as swine and
poultry, and. third, the control and eradi-
cation of cattle ticks and hog cholera.
THE last census shows a lamentable
neglect OF live stock in the south. While
the avereg.e Iowa farm has six milch COVE
in North Carolina and Alabama II has
less than two, and in South Carolina, one,
while the average Iowa farm has thirty
five hogs, in North Carolina and Alabama

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1914-08-12

Nowadays we hear loud protests
against the inhumanity of medical
fiends who cut up guinea-pigs and
white rats in laboratories for the pur-
pose of experimental research, to pro-
duce new cures for old and heretofore
incurable diseases. But do we hear
any passionate voices raised against
the widespread practice of babf bait
ing? No, not a peep. And why not?
Because, dear friends, there's millions
in it.
Who performs these experiments on
babies? Parents. relatives, friends,
neighbors, manufacturers of sweet
and pretty dope, and discoveries Of
unique methods of non-medicinal treat
ment delights in trying their ideas out
on the baby. Rarely indeed does a
baby offer insuperable objections to
the experiment. so long as he under
stands it is being DONE for the enter
tainment and delectation of the on
lockers and the enrichment of the
needy medicine manufacturer.

terest of the dope seller. congress
foisted a treacherous law upon the
public permitting these dangerous ex-
periments to be carried on under gov
eminent auspices. For instance, the
compound syrup of white pine you buy
from any druggist contains morphine
"a deadly poison for baby. Yet the
label reads: Guaranteed under the
Food and Drugs Act, June so. 1906"
Which guarantee means what? Why,
simply that the morphine Is present in
standard quantity. as stated on the
label. And so it goes throughout the
entire series OF so-called harmless"
medicines-co syrups, soothing
syrups, headache powders and all the
rest-each Guaranteed" TO contain

GREAT APPLE CROP.

The latest revised estimate of the
1914 apple crop, based upon official
investigation of conditions and pros
poets in the apple producing regions
of the United States give a total of
between 100000 and 100000 bar
rels, if the growing crop does not re-
ceive a setback before the apple har-
vest. which is not likely. Last year
the crop was 26,OOO,O 900 and 100000
in 1912.
Last year eating apples sold on the
fruit stands of the city at cents
each and good cooking apples were
scarce at S1.6O a bushel, while choice
fruit was priced at from $3.50 a bushel
up. In the early winter of last year
apples by the barrel were quoted at
from 81 up.
Will the prices of apples this year
correspond with the size of the crop,
or in proportion to the prices and size
of the crop last year? If they do,
good apples should sell at 50 a barrel
and cooking apples at from so to IS
cents a bushel. according to grade.
The writer of an article in the Illinois
State Register remembers distinctly
when apples in Sangamon county, of
the bellefiower, pippin, greening, bald
win and other varieties equally as
good, sold for 80 cents a bushel, de-
livered in the consumers cellar. Of
course orchards are not as plentiful
and productive in Sangamon county
as they were So years ago and farmers
are not as willing to haul the fruit to
nd da1i
Many of them will let their crops go
10 waste or feed them to cattle and
hogs rather than to haul them in and
sell them at a low price. So We may
not expect to buy apples at as low
prices as 20 or % years ago.
Another thing that may affect the
prices of apples to increase them is
the cold storage process of preserv-
ing fruit This enables spectators
to manipulate the markets. This
process is used nowadays to increc1e
the prices of nearly every perishable
commodity to the consumer. II will
probably be used on the bumper ap-
pie crop of this year. The produc-
ers will have to sell to the specula-
tor at a low price and the spectators
will sell to the retailer and the retail
er to the consumer at as high a price
as the market will bear
But. with all that, says the Regis
ter. il the bumper crop now in pros
pect materializes. the price by the
barrel to the consumer should not
exceed $3.50 TO S2.75. With plenty of
apples at reasonable prices. the
housekeeper can make up the scarcity
Of summer fruits by supplying her
table with apple sauce and apple pies
enough TO keep the family from grumb-
ling.

l do not yearn to own the earth: long
Not for the envy of the toiling throng;
MY wants are few and modest; all I ask
Is freedom from the necessary task;
A cottage of, say, fifteen rooms, or more,
Upon some pleasing hillside, looking DER
A verdant valley with winding brook.
And peace wherever I may care to look
do not ask for much; a sloping lawn
Begemmed with cleaning dew drops at
the dawn;
A gray garage, a rakish-looking car,
A citys towers shimmering afar:
a spacious porch with vines to furnish
shade:
A dearly loved one in white gauze ar
rayed
To run her graceful fingers through my
hair.
As peacefully I linger dreaming there
I do not covet what the greedy crave,
He that would gain it all is but slave:
An income OF ten thousand yearly, say.
For which I will not need to toll away;
My peaceful herds and focks on grassy
slopes,
Sweet freedom from the pain Of blasted
hopes.
Ice always in the cooler; fame well won.
No duty ever waiting to be done
Mine is a modest wish. as have shown:
I would not claim the whole earth as my
own:
I have no longings such as fools retain
Who crush their brothers for little gain;
Let me have peace far from the money
mad,
with one whose youthful beauty makes
me glad
To run her soft. slim fingers through my
When am pleased to finger dreaming
there.

TICKLE REDFELLOWS-

In the history of Europe during the
past century nothing is more curious
than the easy way in which national
alliances have been made, broken,
made again, and changed as dynastic,
/ economic and racial reasons have de
manded. Here are a few OF these po-
Iitical transformations:
In 1915 Russia, Prussia. England
and Austria combined against France
and crushed the power Of Napoleon
forever.
In 1919. when revolution in Hun
gary threatened the house of Haps-
burg in Austria, Russia interviewed,
and by force OF arms placed the pres
ent emperor, Francis Joseph, firmly
upon his throne.
In 1856 England. France, Austria
and Italy allied themselves with the
Turks against Russia in the Grimean
war.
in 1859 France defeated Austria in
Italy and gave a great impetus 10 the
unification of Italy.
In 1866 Prussia gave its present
ally. Austria. fearful beating at Sa-
dowa, and forced IL out of first place
in the Germanic confederation.
In 1870 Prussia inflicted upon
France the defeat, with accompanying
loss OF territory. that has been the
cause OF Europe's unrest ever since.
In 1877 Russia defeated the Turks
decisiyely. but was cheated out OF the
rightful fruits OF her victory by a com
bination OF the other powers in the
treaty OF Berlin.
Old enmities and friendships are
now forgotten, and Italy. which de-
tests both Austria and Germany, is
united with them In the triple ALI
ance. while those old-time enemies,
England and Russia, are allied with
France in the triple entente.
What will be the next switch?
