of Situation.
NO RELlEF=:FR0M HIGH
PRICES NOW IN SIGHT
Quotations May Never Become Lower
Owing to Economic Problems
in Raising Of Cattle.

The price of beef is expected to take
another jump by Monday. This means
that no relief from the prevailing high
prices of that commodity are in sight
for the near future.
AS a matter of fact, persons who are
closely in touch with the beef situation
hold out little hope that the price of
beef will ever become materially
lower for any extended time. While
the high prices to many laymen ap-
pear to be the result of trust manipu-
lation. experts of the Department of
Agriculture today preferred to leave
it an open question.
The committee which was appointed by
the department to investigate the soaring
prices of beef is not expected to make
any definite report on the subject of
its probe until fall.
According to the experts of the de-
partment, however. there is one phase
of the question which one can get
away from. And it is this phase which
holds forth the discouraging fact that
the price of beef probably will never be
low for any extended time in the future.
1t is the economic problem involved in
the raising of beef.
Ranches Now Small Farms.
The great ranches of the west have
been divided into small farms. The en-
tire system of beef raising must be
changed before the production of beef
can be greatly increased. and by the
time this colossal feat Is accomplished

tinues to increase at its present rate

will be SO much larger that the addition
al supply will be taken up.
One of the solutions which Is offered 70
the problem is cattle raising in the corn
| belt. Through cattle raising the pro-
ductiveness of the soil will be Increased
and at the same time the corn raised can
be used for the fattening of animals.
This will be an economic saving over
the old way, too it is believed, mas
much as the food supply for fattenins
and the cattle will be near together.
Under the old system the cattle were
in one Of the sent
other parts where the corn supply was
greater and there they were. fattened.
From this point they were sent to tho
slaughter houses. II not large enough or
the feeders were frequently sent back
to the original starting point. In this
manner large amount OF money went
for freight, commission fees and yard
age
1t also has been suggested that the
small farmers will be able to make cat
tie raising a profitable industry. although
those in close proximity to the large
cities probably always will find dairy cat
tie more profitable than those Tor food
supply.
Situation Seen Four Years Ago.
The fact that beef was becoming
scarcer was .. shown clearly about four
years ago. It is said. by the fact that
breeding cattle began to become in great
er demand. This Is one Of the surest
indications. 1t is said. Since that time
the demand has steadily grown greater
and greater.
In order to keep the supply as large
in proportion to the population-as it Is
now 1t will be necessary for the citizens
of this country ito realize the situation
and meet it." according to the belief Of
one expert. who refused to be Qooted.
The population Of this country has in
creased . per cent within tho last ten
years." he declared. land the cattle pro-
duction has not increased. OF course. the
price of beef will fluctuate from time to
time. according to the supply and the de-
mand.''
The element Of speculation will al
ways enter into the question of
beef production. he asserted, inasmuch
as those who specialize in feeding"
try to buy at the lowest costs and sell
at the highest. Sometimes money IL

The Temperance Phase
This is designated as temper
ance lesson. The implication is that
the watchful life will be on guard
against the evils of strong drink,
both personal and social.
OF course, one cannot stand guard
as Christ's trusted servant, without
withstanding all that He opposes.
To be His friends is to be the foe Of
all His enemies. AS a newspaper edi-
tor remarked to me q few hours ago,
Evidently, from the growth of tenn
perance sentiment in the West, that
part of the country is decidedly reli-
gious" He took it for granted that
anti-liquor activity springs primar-
lily from a pro-Christian spirit. The
surest sign of the impending over
throw of the liquor traffic on tnfs con-
tinent is the aroused interest of the
whole church in the subject. Christ
animated men and women are daily
finding new ways of warning against
this enemy of society.
Filling and firing all means and
methods is the Christ-passion. This
intense spirit is the really formidable
foe of intemperance. Methods may
be matched by methods, schemes by
schemes. The saloon has no adequate
