Wasted and Badly Distributed Fooe

Wasted and Badly Distributed Food.
American Review Of Reviews One
reason for the high cost Of living is
waste. This includes the waste of
food on the farms. because the
farmer is unable to market it for
enough to pay the cost of Transports
ton and selling. Waste in transit
because of the lack OF proper grading
and packing and standardizing OF the
product as it leaves the farm. Waste
in the city due to the delay in de-
livery because of the practice of
passing the food from one dealer to
another in speculation; and waste
due to the total destruction in com.
pliance with the law Of the city in
spectors in condemning whole pack
ages of food, particularly fruits and
vegetables, and in some cases eggs.
when only a small fraction of the
article itself is damaged and the bal
ance might well be preserved.
Generally inefficient and extraya.
CANT methods of distribution are
still another factor in the high cost
of food in the city. Agents or drum
mers go to the country to solicit the
shipments for particular dealer. He
has heavy expense and usually good
salary. This comes out Of the food.
The produce II largely shipped IN

NEXT FEW DAYS

Spanish Situation Will Either Blow
UP in Revolution, or Govern
ment's Hand be
Strengthened.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service]
LONDON. June 27.-The next few
days may bring crisis in the Spanish
situation, according to advices re-
ceived here. Premier Dato's decree in
shutting martial law throughout the
nation, went into effect and coinci-
dentally there were reports Of addi-
tional industrial unrest.
1t is believed here that revocation
ot constitutional guarantees would
either result in strengthening the gov
ernment's hands or else bring about
an immediate coalition of all the ele-
ments of discomfort probably in such
strength that it was believed doubtful
the monarchy could survive.

4 NEW York., June 27-Ten straight
victories is the best record of con-
sistent winning,that has been hung up
in either Of the, big leagues to date.
If consistency1is the prime factor in
grabbing a pennant, Philadelphia,
New York and Chicago should be
locked in the final struggle in the Ma
tional and White and Red Sox in
as they stand today. Against the
we'll known consistency formula, how
ever, is the record of the Braves who
once drove their way to a champion
ship by sudden upheayal toward the
lag end of the season.
The PhillIes so far have thrown
themselves to one winning streak of
ten games. The Cubs have accom-
plished nine straight, while the Giants
best is six in row.
The PhiT1ies have an added record
of five straight, while the Giants have
knocked down this many victories in
a row a couple of times. The second
best mark for the Cubs is three. The
HE'D Sox come nearest the Phillies
mark of ten straight, having come
out on top in nine straight games on
two streaks Of winning. The White
Sox have downed the opposition eight
times in row on two occasions. The
Red Sox haven't had much time to ac-
complish side records, but they have
managed to get away with run of
three. The White Sox have done a
four time parade.
Not the Athletics, but the Senators
hold the record for consecutive losses,
having amassed a count of ten with
out a victory. The Athletics wors.
run is eight defeats, just one more
than Wilbert Robinson's one-time
fearsome Dodger, have turned in.
