The report made by the Department of Agriculture on the meat aituation, rorroborutoa tho opinion already held by the j-enernl public as to the in justice of meut prices. It develops that (hive is no shortage of meal or meat animnls in the United .States. Thero are pin.';' of cuttle and sheep. So far us production v, 'Ci', beef and Iamb might ulnu. t Le culled a drug on the market The p.irkcr evidently regard it so, for tliey have lowered the prices paid for livestock about 25 per cent since last March. This should result, of course, in li coTiVfponding reduction to the con sumer. There has lccn no such reduc tion. Itetad prices do not seem to have been lowered anywhere moro than 10 per cent. In most communities the prices are as high as ever, and in some cones thy have actually risen. Whob'sulo prices have gone do . The niickoi und cattOmen complain that the public is not citing JTiouii meat. How can the powic roiisumo meat s ujual at the rati it lHto pay? Tb:re iS,no usg urging ini-fuaito cdmsumption unless prices drop. fiminething must be done about tl matte;:, for the' benefit of the rattle Industry no less" than the welfare of consumers who need more mnt thaii they fcfl able to uf ford. The dopart ment recommends govuriimciit control of the, mmt industry, and the publica tion from day to dy of listt of fair rtil prices, io that consumers maj know whin thty are ling over-charg d, and may help to regulate prices accordingly. If there is any differ ence of opinion as to the former sug gution, there ran be little as to the value of the latter. bu? retail prices rcmiiOi at $out iKM (feVmai, as o tartei in paying f. sumo high lcvelO It Ts charged thaT her bills, Oi Kwq to "make confiscaQ iitws -ncono amouniiji aiu,uwooo,oou o!0 $,000,o90,000.

"Both!" l.onr and serious articles have been written and fine orations made on the benefits which humanity has derived from the wnr, and now the barber comes along with another one "Toft- soriul standards have been raised by tho war," says he. "Tonsorial standards" has a mighty fine sound, but what he means is thai all the 4,000,000 or so young men who have been in training and service in the nrn-.v learned habits of cleanliness and neatness which they refuse to give up ns they return to civil fife. They cling to the clean shave and the neat lv trimmed hair which nre a part of every good soldier's make-up. Moro than this, it is not just the soldiers themselves who demand extrn good and frequent service from the barber; it is all tho younger and older men us well, who wish to look as sol diers do. So clean cheeks and well dinned heads have become the ruling fashion, and of all the people who lirench of the good war has brought, nono has a finer text nor better ex amples to hack it than tho barber. Cleanliness of tho body and cleanli ness of the soul are mysteriously in terdependent, and pride in personal 'appearance is tho cornerstono of self rei.pect and success. it to pay back to Helgiuna'iid FiOi what ahsiiscnte from tfc1n. o a - " Tho VeMc Wih Jfedland is that sltr5 imagines slits j hostess to thf ex huisec, and thinks she on ht to jive up to the Uio'ion ofjnntiojiuf hoij i tuli; wiuw fc a matter of fact, sha's' only the temporary custodiua, oha fugitive from justice.

"Tho cost of living will go still higher," says a dispatch. I'rouably true, but not news! "Super-blimp" is certainly what. Shakespearo would have called ''a vilf! phrase, a very vile phrase."
