COMMERCIAL NE w ST.
SHOES GOING UP
LNPRICE, SURE

Shoes are not only going TO be
higher in price but they are going
to be infinitely harder 10 get as the
demands made by the war increase.
Many things beside the cost Of
leather enter into the price of shoes.
First of ALL there is the additional
cost of doing business OF any sort.
Then transportation, findings, lining
even thread have TO be taken into
consideration, and every single one of
these things has gone up in price
within the last year.
Also. there is the constantly grow.
ing demand for American shoes to
be seen over seas. Last month con.
tracts were awarded at Washington
for 100000 pairs OF boots for the
Russian army, at a total cost of 81
100000. The awards were made by
the Russian purchasing commission,
advised by the committee on supplies
of the Council of National Defense,
before the Russian army went to
pieces.
The embargo which existed on sole
leather was raised October IL when
the L. S. Government guaranteed
payment on $1O.O00,O0O of sole leath-
er for Russia and England About
the same time an order was placed
in Boston by an Englishman for S15,-
100000 worth of leather, which just
about cleaned up that market Of its
leather supply.
All this cannot fail to- have a bull.
lish effect upon the leather market,
and retail merchants in Honolulu are
expecting to pay considerably in
creased prices for the next shoe or.
ders, which means that, unless he
wants to wear sandals, the man of
moderate means, and madame, his
wife, would be wise today in a sup
ply of shoes and boots now, before
the present stock Is exhausted.

SAVE YOUR HOGS.

eases of hogs. There will be no
charges for the services of these ex
perts. The departments mentioned
earnestly solicit the cooperation of
all farmers to increase pork produc-
ton in Georgia.
The state commissioner of agricul-
ture in his yearly report for 1915
emphasizes the fact that Georgia
paid, to people outside the state,
S5,251, $4,000 for side meat. These
figures were obtained by the number
OF pounds of this meat shipped into
the state figuring l 5 cents per pound.
During almost the entire year of
1916 hog prices were about one half
of what they are today. If Georgia
buys the same number of pounds this
year, under existing prices, it is not
placing the figures too high to say
she will send to the hog raising
states $10,000,000. for this class
of meat, provided, of course, she is
able to get meat shipped in at all.
Much of the meat formerly shipped
to the South from the central states
must now go to feed our allies in
the present war. 1t would seem,
therefore, that it is up to us to raise
our own pork and keep this money at
home.
Although there has been a de-
crease of 10 per cent. in the last
year in the number of breeding
stock in some of the leading hog
raising states, Georgia has increased
her production in this line in the last
three years something like half mil
lion hogs, her increase in the last
year being about 3 per cent, or 70,
600; Notwithstanding this, if Geor-
gia is to feed herself, if she is to
feed the people within her boundar-
les, she must still increase her pork
production about 100000 hogs.
These figures are important. 1t is
vitality important at the present time
that every state that has not hereto
fore done so produce enough food
for home consumption, and Georgia
needs to raise nearly 100000 more
hogs to do this. We will not have to
look elsewhere for a market. We
need at least 100000 more meat
hogs annually to supply home de-
mands. However, it will not add
much to the meat supply nor to the
hog raiser's purse if he grows many
hogs and then allows them to die of
cholera or some other disease, that
is preventable, before killing or sell
ing time. Conservation is as import
ant as production.
The days of experimenting with
the anti hog cholera serum have pass
ed. No well informed hog raiser to-
day doubts the value of serum. Do
not wait until the disease makes it's
appearance in your herd. Apply the
motto Safety First" in your hog
raising. Have your hogs immunized
before cholera gets to your herd.
For further information and CO.
operative service write to DR.. Peter
F. Bahnsen, state veterinarian, or to
DR.. A. L. Hirleman, care of the
state veterinarian, Atlanta, Georgia.

least 100000 pounds of butter this
year. His ambition is to make TO-
100000 pounds, and to this end the
biggest factory in the world is near
ing completion. Last year there was
shipped out of Union City, which
boasts a population of 5000, nearly
100000 worth of butter. 1t was
consigned to all parts of the world,
including Japan and Russia, but the
bulk of the product went to New
York city and Chicago.
Cream for this vast amount of but
ter is shipped into Union City by
special trains from distant points and
by special motor truck service
throughout Ohio and Indiana. The
trucks keep moving day and night
and there is a constant stream of
cream pouring into the factory every
hour of the "a.
Immense watts for sterilizing and
chilling receive the river of cream
after its arrival and without delay
it is put through the machinery that
transforms the liquid into a golden
mass of butter. Iced refrigerator cars

hurry the firkins to their destination.

$1OO,O0O,000 for ordnance and ord
nance supplies in addition to appro-
priatiOns made or pending, but the

$118,020,00O.
An appropriation of $676,213,OOO

1t is recognized that there is at
the present time a shortage of meat
producing animals, and it would
seem that this shortage will increase.
as far as hogs are concerned, as re-
cent statistics show that there are
now nearly 100000 less hogs in
the United States than a year ago.
In view of the above mentioned
shortage of meat producing animals
the state and federal departments of
agriculture propose to extend great
err efforts of assistance in the sup
preston of hog cholera by covering
a greater amount of territory, max
ing the campaign which has been and
is now conducted comparatively by

BRITISH CAPTURE
CITY MADE FAMOUS
BY BIBLE HISTORY
(By Review Leased Wire)

LONDON, Nov. -27.-Beersheba, re-
Gently captured by the British army
in Palestine, derives its main interest
from its connection with the biblical
patriarchs, and served as a residence
successfully to Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob. The low plateaus around the
town are very fertile, but cultivation
is neglected by the neighboring fell
laheen. The district was very thickly
populated in the Roman and Arab
times.
On the western bank of the river
are situated the two wells famous
among the Arabs for the good quality
of their water and for their size, the
largest measuring II feet in diameter.
The desert of Beersheba is very
spring and early summer, but in this
season of the year offers to Tommy
nothing but dry and parched sur
face with not a single tree to break
the mOnotony of the landscape. The
arabic land of Palestine comes prac-
tically to an end at Beersheba, which
is distant IS miles from Hebron and
So miles from Jerusalem.
In the first years of the Moslem
era the famous Arab General Omar
retired there TO lead an ascetic life.
