Secretary of Agriculture James Wilson Is quoted by the daily press as saying that general pros perity is the underlying cause. .He says:! ;hj , S i i f .?V U ?' '.'The prices of meats have gone up Just as the prices of everything else has gone up, and will go higher. tt- "Then too,' the secretary . con tinued, "there were last year more than a million 1 immigrants. This year there win be hundreds of thous ands more. - These people soon find work. Meat was a luxury to them at home,' but in America, making more money than they everdreamed of, they want to live well, and they eat meat. ' "There is also an enormous export trade which cuts a great hole in the supply.' Last year we sent abroad more than $323,000,000 worth of ani mals, meats and animal products. "Now, with all this constantly in creasing demand for meat, the price is going up because there is not an increase in the supply of cattle in proportion to the increased demand, The farms and ranges are not in creasing their supply of cattle pro portionately. ' f , "It costs more to raise cattle now. The price of farnt labor has risen enormously. The price of grain has gone up and the farmer canr nTake more money raising grain or hay or other crops that he can harvest with labor-saving machinery than he can in raising and fattening cattle for the market. , Possibly, too, not so many cattle reach the market now because rigid- inspection under the meat inspection law makes it useless to send to market cattle that form erly might perhaps have passed." The figures of the Bureau of Sta tistics of the Treasury Department fully'bear out this statement of Sec retary . Wilson.

Izpenditaret for Jato. - A consular report calls attention to-the fact that we are sending to India $21,921,941 annually for bags and cloth that might be made at home. ' It calls attention to the fact that we are thus receiving articles that are made by the cheapest paid labor on earth and which ought to be made by home labor. We buy, it is said, $8,787,485 worth of raw jute annually in addition to manu factured stuff.; It suggests that it would be desirable to encourage the growth of ramie on the lands going to waste in the Philippines, where that fiber can be successfully culti vated, thereby becoming absolutely independent in respect to bags for use in handling our flour wheat, corn, oataV-iund nth" eomnwdities.

Dr. Reynolds, of Louisville, Ky., says: "In twenty-seven years' ex perience in the Hospital College of Medicine in this city, I have noted that the young men of exceptional natural endowments and no prelim inary education, acquiring the ciga rette habit, gradually degenerate. In no instance has one of these been able to compete succesfully with other young men of far inferior nat ural abilities and far less preliminary training."
