ONE REASON FOR HIGH COST OF
LIVING.

Several states in the eastern section OF
the country, and presumably others in
the country, are now engaged in spend
ing tens of thousands of dollars need
lessly in counting noses at the halfway
period between national eensuses. Mas.
sachusetts is one of those states and
New York is another. In the latter
state il is estimated that the cost Of
taking the 1915 census will be S465,0OO;
and, according to the opinion of the New
York Evening sun, that expenditure is
totally unnecessary" Undoubtedly a
similar opinion is maintained in Massa.

On Monetary Basis.

Settlement, in cases of interference
with American commerce which are not
sanctioned by international law, has
been put upon monetary basis in the
two last notes sent from Washington to
Berlin and London.
The United States government asks
Germany to pay an indemnity of 1925
059.54 to the owners of the sailing ship
William p. Frye, which was sunk by
the Prinz Eitel Friedrich.
And there are reasons for believing
that the justice of the claim in the
main will not be disputed
So far as the British orders in coun-
Gil are concerned, Uncle Sam sets the
record straight by obieeting to the pro-
posal to detain noncontra band goods pro-
ceedng into or out OF Germany through
adjacent neutral countries.
Notice is served that the American
nation will look 10 Great Britain to
make reparation for every act which
under the rules of international law con-
stitutes violation of neutral rights. +"

Such are the present intentions of

officially proclaimed. and the attitude
assumed in Washington probably will be
maintained TO the end of the war.--Bos.

CURRENT COMMENT
Canada and the United States.

In some important respects Canada
and the United States have been brought
into closer and kindlier relationship by
the war in Europe They have become
! more neighborly. Regardless of laws
made to hamper rather than to give
freedom to international intercourse,
trade between the two nations has gone
steadily forward Attention has been
directed in these columns frequently to
this interesting and important fact. Be-
fore the outbreak of the war, Canada was
a very large borrower in the United
Kingdom. Loans placed there last year
aggregated S227,000000. Exigencies aris-
ing in August last made it necessary
that the United Kingdom should call
IN its loans as rapidly as possible and
place restrictions, temporarily at least,
on the granting of new credits.
In this emergency Canada came to the
United States and was pleasantly re-
coived. According to our Ottawa adj
vices S66,000,000 has been loaned by the
United States during the last foln
months on Canadian securities, more
than half the total loaned by United
States financiers on foreign securities,
and more than usually is loaned in one
year. Canada, moreover, is practically
assured by the United States of whatev-
er financial aid it may need in the carry
ing out Of her enterprises hereafter.
All this is very satisfactory. In a
large way the two nations are doing
business with each other on mutually |
agreeable terms. In small way there
is occasional cause for complaint on the |
Canadian side. There are some always |
who will not hesitate to take advantage |
of the neighbor in trouble and, doubtless,
there are some Americans doing business
with Canada who are capable of seeing
only the selfish side and present gain.
Canadians are not disposed to charge
this against the people of the United
States in general, however, for they have
ample proof of something more than
mere commercial friendliness on the
southern side of the line.-Christian Sci
ence Monitor.

There was no boastful feeling back OF
the celebration of Lees surrender at Ap-
pomattox courthouse on the 50th ami
versary of the event yesterday. Rather
was there reverence for an event which
had so much significance in the history
of the United States and in the history
of civilization. Therefore, no southerner
should take offense at any celebration
held in the northern states on April 0,

CURING BACON AND MANS

The brine method is the most
satisfactory way of curing hams
and bacon on the farm. To sugar
cure them over night. rub each
niece with salt and allow it to
drain. Then pack in barrel with
The hams and shoulders in the
bottom, using the strips Of bacon
to fill in with or place on top.
For each 100 pounds. take 9
pounds of salt. 8 pounds brown
sugar and , ounces salt peter.
Dissolve these in gallons OF
boiling water. After cooling. pour
it over the meat which should be
covered. Place a weight on it to
keep it in the brine. Leave the
bacon in the brine Z to 6 weeks
and the hams & to 8 weeks, then
smoke it.
Handle salt pork in the same
way. only use 10 pounds of salt
and leaye GU the sugar.
