SHORTAGE OF TEA

The things that nobody could imagine in advance OF
their happening are often interesting than those
that were reasonably obvious.
Anybody would have foreseen that wheat would get
expensive il half the world went to war; and that powder
and shrapnel shells would be above par
But who could have foreseen that tea would become
substituted half way around the world for more siren
uous drinks and that long before the first year OF war
was ended there would be shortage Of tea and an IN
crease in the price with threat Of serious revolution
in the whole business of raising and selling tea?
This is the most recently discovered effect OF the war
The soldiers in the trenches and the people they have
left at home cutting out the hard liquor and taking
to tea Consequently tea is being consumed in larger
quantities than ever before while there is no present
prospect of expanding its production fast enough to KEEP
step with the demand.
Tea-the feminine beverage-mild innocent pink
tea-suddenly becomes of the items of war material
and the price has gone up in the primary markets 20 tt
20 per cent with prospects of real shortage before Ions
and still further advances in price.
The Russians who have had to give up their vodka
the French who have been deprived Of their alcoholic
drinks and the English who are being shamed into for
swearing beer and whskey must all agree that war is al
that General Sherman said it And if tea goes "
ia price the rest of the world will join in making tha
conclusion unanimous

Creswell Chronicle: A wolf has killed
several sheep and goats on the Lower
place recently. 1t comes down into the
barnyard at night and kills the animals.
1t catches sheep by the throat and
sucks out the blood, then rips the flank
open and gets the liver and leaves the
balance of the animal untouched.
Twelve of fifteen goats have been lost
by Mr.. Lower, and Mr. Eaton has also
lost number. The wolf has been seen
on one or two occasions but at too great
a distance to kill.
The Aurora Observers Macksburg
correspondent writes: "Surely no spot
on this terrestrial ball could afford a
more charming cline than which we
have been enjoying for the past month.
With just enough rain to promote the

overheating even from those doing the
most strenuous out of door work. l."

Both these plays apparently share the
weakness natural to any dramatic pro-
duction that is inspired by the wish to
argue cause rather than to interpret
life: they are didactic rather than dra-
matte, devised to convey a lesson
rather than to interpret life. The offer
OF the Roster Doisters, however-the
society OF our own college-looks
rather to a good drama of rural lie
than to a good argument in dramatic
form, desiring to have the life OF the
country truly interpreted by means of

exist for their own Significance rather
than to be carriers of special pleading.

Odors OF deduction Plants.
From the Municipal Journal.

From the Municipal Journal.
A number of furnaces for destroying
city refuse at high temperature have
been operated within the populous por-
lions of cities in England, and a few
in this country. which have created no
nuisance nor proved themselves objec-
tionable except as the wagons carrying
the refuse to them are Objectionable.
But we believe that there are no gar
bage reduction plants of which this
give off very little. odor under ordinary
weather conditions, but they are well
removed from residence sections. The
largest garbage reduction plant in the
world is that at Barren Island. where
the garbage of New York Is treated.
The plant has been there for nineteen
years. and has always been objected to
by the residents on the mainland and
islands a short distance away because
of odors AS there are also a rendering
plant and a fertilizer plant on the
island, 1t is difficult to state how much
of the blame the reduction plant Is en-
titled to.
About a year ago the complaints were
taken up by the board of estimate and
apportionment, which set about deter
mining whether and how all three OF
the plants could De operated witqout
giving of Objectionable doors The re-
suit was that, for perhaps the first time
in the history of reduction, thorough
physical and chemical study from the
point of view of odors disseminated
was made Of the process and the solids,

thereby. The conclusions arrived at
are given in this issue. In general they
are that it Is possible to prevent odors
