That II, Budapest Folk Are Eating
Components, Hence Rise In Price.

PARis, Sent. 15.--There is a dcart1 OF
soap in Budapest. The fact Is undenia-
bic and the explanation curious. The
price of soap has risen 1870 per cent.

on the public. THE public eats SOAP"
they say.
The explanation is this: the public
now consumes the raw material OF soap.

wives and mothers are, Of course, ex-
cludcd from the start.
As TO the cattle markets and the
prices Of w"nt The report Is very full.
The facts and figures here given show
that much more cattle were slaughtered
during tho yrdI l2li-l9lj from August
! to July 81 than ever before. The
Vienna cattle market alone consumed
1888 head more than during the same
period the year previous. The reason
for this undoubtedly is that the army
has required enormous masses OF beef
preserves, mostly In the shape Of
goulash. In calves and swine there il
IA slight decrease, however.
As hungry has required her cattle
supplies FOR her own needs. instead OF
sending, as heretofore. her surplus To
Vienna, and as u~ialicia, under normal
conditions the chief purvcyor of beef
and cattle in Austria, ceased entirely

easily understood how meat has risen
so enormously in price and how the
supply of beef * wholly Inadequate in
Austria. To-day beef ON the hoof in
Nlcrna sells 300 per cent. higher than
in July, 1914. In Galicia the Russians
have left very little cattle behind them.
All this. Of course, no amount OF fore
slshl on the part OF the Austrian Gov
could have prevented. The
lapse 1t has been guilty OF concerns the
flour and bread supply, Instead OF
