RECORD PRICE FOR HOGS


East ST. Louis, ILL.,. Aug. s.-The
record price for hogs for the year was
reached. here today when $3.50 per
hundred was bid. This was an in
crease Of $50 since Tuesday.
The market slumped decidedly in
the early part OF the week as a result
of the European. war and the attend
ant uncertainty as to the possibility of
exporting pork products to Europe.
But light shipments the last few days
and an expected demand from Eu-
rOpean governments are given as the
reason for the increase in price.

Yet the thing that makes it diff
cult to give the correspo ndent a direct
answer is the fact that baseball is just
as good in the minor league as in the
majors. Further, / think that on an
average, the contests in minor
leagues are more interesting.
The answer depends largely upon
what the correspondent means by
better teams. The major leagues
have the pick of the minors. They
select, buy and draft the best play
ers-for their purposes. This rule,
while seeming to work an injustice,
really is what makes minor league
baseball so interesting. The strong
est club in minor league loses the
most players. The following season

NARROW GAUGE ROADS.

An Engineering FaIIaey That Has cest
Untold Miliions.
Available statistics show that there
are in the eutire world nearly 10000
miles Of narrow gauge railway lines.
The great bulk Of this mileage must
eventually be converted. to STANDARD
gauge, as the narrow gauge railway
nnes of the United States have been,
saws the Engineering News. The cost Of
this alteration, enormous as 1t is. Is but
q small fraction Of the financial loss
which the world has suffered through
It's belief in this economic and engi-
ueering fallacy. A comparison of the
freight rates per ton mile on United
States railways and on the narrow
gauge railway systems Of other coun-
tries is most instructive as showing
the ~ineflciency Of the narrow gauge
system as a transportation machine.
II a fair estimate were made Of the
cost to the world resulting from the
narrow gauge fallacy. the total would
probably reach several billions Of dol
lars. The cost in Japan alone Of
changing 5000 miles Of narrow gauge
railway to standard gauge is estimated
at $3.50, 700. In Argentina the net
earnings Of the narrow gauge railways
are only about half as much on the
capital invested as the net earnings of
the standard gauge lines, and this not
withdrawing the fact the the capital
fzation per mile Of the standard gauge
tines Is much heavier.
