North Portland showed a small ad-
vance for hogs today but the trade
here is losing instead OF catching up
with the recently advanced prices at
leading American centers.
Hog prices at North Portland Just
now are further below other Ameri-
can stockyards than for a great many
years. Tops in the east sold this
morning at 1910, while killers are
fighting this morning to pay above
$3.50 while receivers were asking
$3.50.

in the hog market for the day, tops

THE CHANCES or rooD SCARCITY

a wholesaler Of grain was asked few days age
what was the effect Of war on his business. lie said
il was much like the case Of man who had had a
large and plentiful succession OF highbals. Every
one in the trade was flushed and excited Consumer
is bidding against consumer, forcing Tie prices up
against each other.
lie predicted, If war continued, that very high
prices food stuffs would be seen before spring.
But he would not advise the average consumer to
buy ahead Of his needs at present prices
II is certainly tremendous misfortune that the
war comes just as the autumn season is starting.
We're it spring, a campaign could at once be organ
lied to persuade farmers to pillow up and seed down
every available acre. Every man with back yard
could be urged to grow some kind Of food supply
There is plenty Of food for people, and some
thing TO spare. Many feel that the doors should be
closed against exports while prices high. Also
that liberal expectations will tend to proong the war
Still il exports are shat down the women and child
rem and other non-conbatants Of Europe would be
the ones who would feel the pinch first The sold
icrs win be fed at any cost.
While there will be no famine here. the necessities
Of life may cost very high before spring. Poor PEG
pie viii suffer. The public win do we'll to make as
much as possible Of the less expensive foods,
like potatoes and other vegetables, fish, canned
goods etc. Our grandparents knew what appctizing
fishes could be made out Of simple salt fish which
many people despse nowadays.
1t is none too soon to begin a campaign for the
Enlargement Of our food supply for next summer
Farmers in the more southery climates should stuff
very acre full for early spring delivery Every
hing catabe will be salable next year and at good
md probably high prices.

GEOCRAPHY IND THE VAR.

About the only way most people learn geography
is through travelling or through being interested in
a war As the majority Of people travel little, and
wars are exceptional most people know little about
geography The comments hears on the war in
Europe show surprising ignorance, considering that
everyone has studied the subject in school
It is rather remarkable that the old fashioned
schools did give so much attention to geography
The Three RS" were distinctly practical. People
studied Readn Ritin and Rithmetic because they
could not engage in business or earn a living else.
But it is perfectly possible to earn good living
and be useful, popular. successful, and yet to
know practically nothing about the divisions of the
earth Here for once the little red schoolhouse
looked at life in broad liht 1t taught geography
not as a money earning study but merely for its
value in wider intelligence.
Geography is easy enough to learn, but hard to
remember 1t is a string OF unrelated facts bound
together by no logic and drops out of sight in the
mind like pebble in the ocean. Was there one per-
son in hundred who previous to the recent fighting
could have located the NosgeS mountains Or was
there one in hundred who could have placed cor
recty the city Of Iouvain now destined for fier,
alo ality'
Geography is broadening study, AMI / ought FOL
be taught SO that people will remember more abcut
IT, Mere lists of names of rivers mountains cities
are elusive the morning dew, II its main facts
can somehow be remembered and connected with
human interest feature they might stick longer in
the mind. II Young people can be helped to asso-
ciate city or a river or mountain with certain
dramatic events of history. it would be helpful to
memory.
