The more we think OF humanity as a
brotherhood the more clearly we must
see that each member owes a duty to
all. and duty to the great family.
There is no surer way to stunt self
realization than to failto perform that
duty. OF all the safeguards of moral
ity and clean living few are stronger
than convention. There is therefore
good deal to be said for conventional
ity, not as mere fashion In the petty
sense. but as social force. There is
nothing necessarily dull or stupid
about it, says Indianapolis News. At its
best 1t is simply the capitalization of
the experience of the race, and there
fore is something not TO be lightly
regarded. The question. after all, is,
not whether there shall be conventions,
but what the conventions shall be. For
some. sort we must have.

HoKsE MEAT NEcEsslrn.

we must inevitably come to eat our
stock of surplus useless horses. No
one need eat horse meat who has
prejudice against it. Millions of peo-
pie at home and abroad who hunger
would rejoice TO feel fits DEMONSTRATING
power. Doctor Butler, the Montana
state veterinarian, is advocating the
conversion into meat of the wild
horses. cayuses and improbable
horses, which he estimates In that
state to reach In numbers around a00.-
OOO. The export market is very wide
TOT such meat, If indeed any of It
would be left to leave our shores. Pro-
fessor Cooley believes that the number
OF such practically useless horses now
burdening the burned and wasted
ranges of the West viii reach up to-
ward 100000 The forage they eat
would save great herds of cattle and
sheep. which are now in jeopardy,
says Breeders Gazette. If remounts
could be bought In that state with
greater regularity, SO that the surplus
OF horses suitable for military pur-
poses could be moved out, it would
greatly aid in the preservation of val
liable breeding stocks. This problem
Is very pressing one. The food ad-
miniStration cannot too soon give at
tention TO the economic aspects of
turning stream of useless horses
through the slaughter houses.
