AN AID TO SCIENCE
Animals That Die at Geological Gar

The Prosectorium at the Geological
Gardens, used for research in COM
parative anatomy, has been reconstitut-

PRODUCE MORE
Production the Key To Lower Living
Costs

After all is said, and after what has
been done, and is trying to be done, the
whole problem of reducing the high
costs for everything SINNERS down to
a very simple explanation of only five
words: produce more or consume less.
If farmers everywhere should produce
twice as much as the world could con
sumo, wheat and flour would soon be q
drug on the market; or,
If the world should consume for, say,
two years, only onehalf of the wheat
raised, then, too, would bread be cheap,
and for want of storehouses to contain
the surplus, the staff of life would be
come food for live stock.
| The same reduction in selling price
would be true of corn, potatoes, cattle,
rails, overcoats, kid gloves, rubber
boots, houses, automobiles, and all the
rest.
With a cold winter ahead and scar
city of nuts and acorns, the squirrels
don t work half time or go on strike
On the contrary they hustle harder than
ever. Squirrels know that quitting
work neither increases the quantity of
nuts, nor accumulates a reserve stock

1t is part of the price we pay for

that we have to produce by work what
: we eat, and wear, and use. But who
:, wants to live amidst malaria and veno-
nous reptiles in order to wear palm

Senator Johnson of California.
But between these groups-Mrs.
Herbert Hoover, wife of the man who
organized relief for the Belgians in
the early days of the war, and later
taught America to conserve food for
itself and its allies. Mrs. Hoover's
chances, according to present indica-
tlons, might be said to be better than
any others.
No one seems able to predict
whether her husband will receive the
nomination, but political students
predict that the women of the coun-
try will support him. They demand
business man, man with practical
knowledge, according to statements
of women leaders of the country.
They may be further influenced in
Hoover's favor, by the fact of his
wife's thorough and constant partner
ship in her hus, and's work. Through
such strenuous times as those of the
Boxer rebellion and the Belgian re-
lief period, Mrs. Hoover is said to
have worked side by side with her
husband, adding her energy and pow
ers of organization to his own.
