Dr. Stephen S. Visher, associate pro­
fessor of geography at the University
of Indiana, who received the Bishop
museum fellowship from Yale univers­
ity this year.
The Kona winds, a mild form of
hurricane, strike the southern part of
the island of Oahu and, according to 1
Hawaiian tradition, bring sickness up­
on the inhabitants.
Dr. Visher will spend several months
in the Fiji islands studying the winds
there and then will proceed to the
Tougan and Samoan islands, return­
ing to Honolulu to assemble and com­
plete his data for publication.

Choice Cuts
—and Others
A few months ago a
newspaper man visited
one of the wholesale mar­
kets of Swift & Company.
He wanted to see a re­
tailer buy a short loin of
beef and then watch the
retailer sell the porter­
house and sirloin steaks
from it over his counter.
He thought this would
make a good story.
The head of the market
took the reporter into
the “cooler" where he
showed him a high class
side of beef. W ith a
wooden skewer he marked
off the short loin and
said. “That is only 8 per
cent of the weight of the
whole side and it is selling
for four times as much
as this piece (and he
marked off the “chuck,*
which is about one-fourth
of the side of beef)."

says? it is not an adjustment guarantee,—
starts on the day when you buy your “Luthy.”
Heretofore more than eighty per cent of all
battery troubles have been due to short cir­
cuits. Insulating separators of wood or rubber-
compounds have rotted and the plates have
touched. Luthy batteries cannot short circuit
in this way, for their patented separators of
Luthite” are acid-proof and indestructible in
the battery.
Luthy separators are built to allow free pas­
sage of the solution and current between the
plates. In other batteries the current has to
pass through pores in wood or rubber-com­
pound separators, which offer increasing re­
sistance as the battery grows older. That is
why Luthy batteries continue to charge quick­
er and discharge a more powerful current
through the entire life of the battery. And be­
sides they are from 10% to 20% over-capacity.
The Luthy battery is the kind you want for
your car. W e repair and give service on all

The wide variation in the wholesale price of various
cuts from the same side of beef is caused largely by
demand for the so-called choicer cuts. The others are, of
course, just as wholesome.
It seems as though more people than ever are
demanding choicer cuts, and their demand sets the price
If tew people ask for the forequarter cuts, the price of
forequarters will automatically drop to a figure low
enough to induce people to buy because of cheapness.
Even though certain cuts sell for relatively high
prices, other cuts, due to lack of demand, sell so low that
our profit from all sources over a period of five years
averaged only a fraction of a cent a pound.
It is competition between consumers for the choice
cuts that keeps prices for those cuts relatively high; an
equalizing demand for all parts of the carcass would
benefit producer, packer, retailer and consumer
Our average wholesale selling price of all products
has fallen about 40 per cent since September 1920.
