BREAKFAST FOODS

H7 ANUFACTURERS OF breakfast
IM' food in the United States in a
IL year receive about $3.50 for
every person in the country. The
greater part Of what they receive goes
to pay for their materials,
According to information gathered
by the government. seventy-four cents
cut OF each dollar the breakfast food
manufacturer receives represents the
cost OF his material. Six cents pays
his labor leaving him 20 cents to pay
his own profit, overhead and taxes
A sixteen per cent increase in wages
would increase the selling price not
quite one cent on each dollar-ninety-
six one-hundredths OF a cent Is the
exact figure. A sixteen per cent in
crease in the cost Of materials would
add nearly IL cents on each one dollar.

First Hour
Stocks in the general list gave q

ward the end OF the first hour IN the
face of another break in Texas Com

ANCIENT LAW STILL STANDS
Ediet Issued by Roman Praetor 1890
Years Ago Held to Be Enforce
able In Scotland.

A Roman praetor's edict Of 1890
years ago still affects innkeepers anG
ostlers in Scotland. A Drainie farmer
handed his horse to an ostler to be
stabbed. and the ostler placed it into a
double stable, where, shortly after, a
second horse was placed. These two
horses had previously shared a stall,
and were known to be quiet and not
Quarrelsome. The farmers horse was
sound when it was put into the stable,
but when he returned for it, it was
found to be lame on the off fore leg,
and two days later, on the advice Of a
veterinary surgeon, was destroyed.
The farmer sued the ostler and the
Judge dismissed the case, which was
appealed. The appeal judge held that
in law the Praetorian edict of 367 B.
c. applied and that the injury was
not due to the act Of God" The
lord justice-clerk said the case raised
questions of Importance and difficulty.
The first question they had to decide
was whether q stabler fell within the
praetor's edict. After carefully con.
sidering the arguments adduced and
surveying the authorities cited, he was
unable to find in modern law any war
rant for the suggested discrimination.
He was of the opinion that stablers,
as well as inkeepers, according to the
law of Scotland, fell within the edict

CONDOR GIANT AMONG BIRDS
California Species Believed to Have
Exceeded in Size Its Cousin Of
South America.

Naturalists have determined that
the California condor exceeds in size
its cousin, the condor of the Andes OF
South America, and is larger than the
giant or wandering albatross which
travels the ocean lanes of the Pacific,
south of the equator. The extreme
wing expanse of the California condor
IS close to twelve feet. Through care
full measurements, the naturalist
learned that the condor of the south
ern countries is smaller in all respects.
One of these largest birds that fly
is on exhibition in the Natural His
tory museum at San Diego, Cal. Be
side the condor, the turkey buZzard, a
smaller relative, appears to be a
dwarf. Both birds are carrion eaters,
a fact which has contributed substan-
TALLY to the near extinction Of the
condor. Naturalists of earlier years
record that the condor was once fairly
common In California.
Ranchers and settlers have been IN
directly responsible for the killing Of
many condors through the placing Of
poisoned meat intended for consump-
ton by coyotes, bobcats and panthers.
Large numbers have also been wan
tonly killed through the indiscriminate
use Of firearms.

Wild Bears Become Plaque.

From the few swine that were let
loose on the island of Santa Cruz in
1917 have come a race of ferocious
wild boars. They have lost virtually
every trace of their original domes.
ITCHY, and have become powerful wild
beasts as fleet of hoof as deer. They
mature enormous tusks, long hoofs
and bristles that are like wire, and
are the plague of the ranch people
who have sought to develop the island
for sheep and cattle raising.
The boars tear down fences faster
than the ranchers can build them,
they root up garden stuff as soon as il
springs from the ground, and not in
frequently they have been known to
gore horses, sheep and cattle. Young
lambs are one of their favorite foods
and in the killing and eating of them
they show skill and cunning and
carnivorous traits comparable to the
tactics Of wolves.

CONSTANT FIGHT ON CRABS
Oestructiveness Of the crustaesans
In the West Indies Is Something
Almost Beyond Belief.

The fisherman of Japan has a So
preme contempt for the gigantic crab
of his coast, which has nippers ten
feet In length, and when moving along
the bottom of the sea with its claws
spread out covers an area of % feet
or so.
The destructiveness of certain spe-
cies Of crab In the West Indies is
remarkable, observes an exchange.
They are great borrowers and In To-
calities where they are plentiful-and
they multiply with the rapidity of the
rodent-nothing is safe from them.
They will eat the eggs on which a
hen is sitting, and just as readily the
leaves Of Seeding coconut trees. They
effect in the West Indies practically
the same degree of destruction on the
young coconuts as the sepoy crab does
In the East Indies. In each instance
some s to IL per cent of the seedlings
have to be replaced If they are plant
ed in the newly cleared ground from
which the crabs have not been thor
oughly cleared out.

SAVING MANY STEPS
IN PLANNING GARDEN
.onvcnic. .ce ShN.ld BE lie Main
C0nSiGora .ivn.
Place Vegetables Most Commonly Used
az Near to Kitchen as Possible
Corn, Pole Beans and Ton,a-
toes on One Side.

Plan for convenience in the garden.
Convenience in the garden is just as
essential as it is in the kitchen, the
laundry, the garage or the stable.
Economy of steps and work should be
the main consideration. Place the
vegetables most commonly used near
est to the kitchen door. The early
spring vegetables should be conven-
iently at hand where the family chef
may step out to gather the crisp young
radishes. onions, lettuce, and early
spinach.
These early vegetables often will
have to be picked in rainy weather
when proximity will be appreciated.
The permanent vegetables, such as as
paragus and rhubarb, should be placed
where they will be least in the way
and least interfere with the efficiency
of the general garden plan. Their
space cannot be shared by other veg
etahles and should be at one side OF
the garden, usually the one most dis
tant from the house.
The tallest vegetables such as corn,
pole beans, and tomatoes should be
placed to the side of the garden rather
than in the middle spaces where it will
be necessary to go around them to
reach lower vegetables on either side.
