Mans Food Supply for
Seventy Years of Life

If man of seventy years were
starving it would probably be OF
little comfort to him to reflect that
he had consumed in the course o:
his life 5334 tons of solid food and
42% tons of liquid, or about 1880
times his own weight in both sol
ids and liquids, but it would be
quite true.
Being a man of average appetite
and purse, he would have eaten ID
tons of bread which would have
made a single loaf containing l,2O0
cubic feet and appearing about as
large as the average suburban
home, and on his bread he would
have spread one ton of butter. If
his bacon had been cut in single
slices the strip would have been
four miles long, and his chops,
placed end to end, would have ex-
tended two miles. Twenty ordi-
nary-sized bullocks have supplied
him with beef, some IS tons of
which he has eaten, along with
tons Of fish and 10000 eggs and 800
pounds of cheese. If he had elect
ed to have all his vegetables served
at once, they would have come to
him on a train of cars, the pod
containing all his peas being over
three miles long. He has had 5000
pounds of sugar, 1900 pounds of
salt, s pounds Of pepper and 100
cans of mustard. Three pints of
liquid a day would have amounted
to 5000 pints or 4234 tons.-Wash-
ington Star.

A Heroic Remedy

1t was a dark night. Murky
clouds obscured the moon in such a
way as to make driving dangerous
in the uncertain light
A car was approaching the level
crossing, travelling swiftly round
the corner which led to the closed
gates. At that precise moment an
express train Numbered through.
Too late, the driver of the car
saw his danger. He tried to
swerve, but skid was the only re-
suit. With a loud crash he struck
the last coach, and the car crum-
pied up on the track.
Silence for a few minutes. Then
a voice:
"Weu, it's cured my hiccoughs,
anyway"-and the driver crawled
out of the wreck.

Bird Cripples LiUe
Under Big Handicap

As in the case of human beings,
SO in bird life there are those
which for sonie reason or other
are fated to go through life with
certain handicaps.
Unfortunately, man is mainly
responsible for birs cripples. Rab-
bit trapping, IS carried on today, is
responsible for damage to thou
sands of pheasants. No less than
so per cent of those shot in a
small wood recently had only one
foot, but they had managed to sur
vive and were in perfect condition
apart from this damage.
Smaller birds often get a leg
smashed, but seem able to get
along without it by hopping on the
sound one and using their wings
Not only will a starting just man
age to exist under such conditions,
but 1t will fight and scramble after
food and manage to hold its own.
In wild-fowling it is frequently
found that after a large flock Of
birds has been put to flight a
smaller number remain behind and
seem loath to fly. If these were
examined through a good pair Of
glasses, they will be seen to be the
halt and the lame that have been
damaged in some part of the body.
Nature has a rough-and-ready
way Of healing their hurts and
many cripples survive for tinue.
Few birds that are born Grip
pies survive for long, for their
enemies are many and the weakest
are the first to go.

Upon inquiry l am advised by

with the concurrence of Com
mon Council and the approval of
the legal voters, bonds may be is
sued to the amount of nine per

aforesaid, which would authorize
bonds to be presently issued in the
sum of 1888, 1910.
by the provisions of Chapter
1875 of the Laws of 1928, being an
Act applicable only to Boards of
Education in cities of the third
class, the amount authorized for
the issuance of bonds, with the ap.
proval of Common Council was not
to exceed a sum equal to nine per
cent of the taxable valuation of the
real and personal property in the
district.
I'm 1924, the school law was am
ended as first quoted. While the
Act of 1924 does not have an ex
press repeater of all prior acts in
consistent with it's provisions, the
Courts might hold, in event of lit
igation, that the Act of 1928 was re
4ealed by implication and it is
therefore, extremely doubtful if the
city has the right to issue bonds
for school purposes to the percent
age authorized by the act of 1928

word signifying to cheat. Common
barratry consists in habitually STIR
ring up or maintaining quarrels or
lawsuits, or in continually disturb
ing the peace by brawls, or in TAX
Ing or OBTAINING possession Of
property the right of which is in
dispute. Habitually breeding dis
cord between neighbors is also bar
ratry. In marine insurance and in
contracts relating to shipping gen
orally, the term barratry means
any fraud or knavery or willful
wrongdoing on the part of the mas
ter of the ship or the crew, by
which the interests of the owner
are injured.

Language and Life

The one supremacy significant
fact in the universe is, to quote
Peabody's fine paraphrase, "the
transformation of language into
life" The belief is one of immense
antiquity, though only of recent
years susceptible of scientific ex-
planation-the belief in the strange
bewildering identity of sound and
life. 1t has been claimed that all
the visible creation in its countless
forms has been built up sound-wise,
upon a system of harmonic vibra-
tion-that, in the shell, the fern,
the fir-cone, the reptile, the fish
the bird, the same laws prevail that
govern the stretched string, with
all their harmonic PROFESSIONS and
associated wave-lengths.'

California Has Advantage
in Present Freight Rates
BY HARRY L. SEXTON

The lower Rio Grande Valley de-
rives little or no advantage in exist
ing freight rate schedules by reason
Of the fact that il Is closer than
California to the larger consuming
markets Of the North ard East. A re-
cent rate survey shows conclusively
that the Valley is being penalized
BY existing rates and that the sched-
ules work to the advantage Of the
California growers.
In making this survey eight typical
market centers were selected-St.
Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati, New York,
Denver. Raleigh, N. o., Knoxville,
Tenn, and Atlanta, Ga. Three COM
modities-cabbage, potatoes. citrus
and also mixed vegetables-were tax
en- as the principal shipments from
the Valley upon which to establish
the rate basis, with Los Angeles and
Harlingen as the points from which
the comparative rates we're computed.
In only one Of the eight market en-
tiers, Denver, does the rate show an
advantage to the Valley when figured
upon the basis OF cost ger ton mile.
Refrigeration charges also show
discrimination in favor Of California,
and the refrigeration costs on ars
from the Valley running higher into
all of these markets when computed
upon the basis Of miles hauled. Re-
frigeration charges from Los An
geies to Denver are $50 per car less
than from the Valley, thereby prac-
tically eqralizing the small advan-
tage the Valley has in freight rates
to that market.
Favors California Shippers
In many instances, the survey
shows, the rate per ton mile on Cali
fornia products ranges from so to rs
per rent Of the rate charged Valley
products. Citrus fruit shipments
from the Valley to Atlanta, Ga. are
charged S1.56 per hundred pounds as
compared with $l.55 on California
fruit. The distance from HarlingeR
to Atlanta is 1887 miles as compared
with 1929 miles from Los Angeles.
The cost per ton mile is $3.50 mills
as compared with 12.26 mills on Cali
fornia shipments.
Potatoes take the lowest rate Of
the various commodities cited in the
survey. the Valley rate ranging from
~ cents per hundred pounds to st.
Louis to S1.3S into New York. The
California rate u s1.l0 per hundred
bounds tn 81. Louis and Si.35 into
New York. However. figuring upon
the besis Of freight cost per ton mile
the Valley is paving 1925 mills into
st. Louis and 1880 mills into New
York, as against 1925 mills into st.
Louis and s.45 mills into New York
paid by the California shippers.
