Anglo-Saxon people are the great-- est reatest Meat -eaters. Autralians, New Zealanders, Americans, Canadians and British,' in that order, stand a long way above others in the con- sumption of mate. Germany, be- fore the war at" any rate, was the nearest "runner --up." The teal consumption per head of all meats in the different countries before the war has ,been carefully estimated, The figures aro now of tonsidorable interest in Canada as hearing on the future of netionial not production in the livestock industry. They show the. yearly consumjtion to have been: Australia 262 lbs. per head New Zealand 212 lbs. per head. United States ' 170 lbs. per head Argentina 140 lbs. per head Canada 137 lbs. per head United Kingdom 126 lbs. per head Germany ,111 lbs. per head Italy 101 lbs. per head Frame 79 lbs. per head In beef. the United States, Can- ada and Great Britain are the great- est consumers, with 84 lbs., 61 lbs., and 60 lbs, respectively. rn mutton consumption, the United Kingdom is a long way ahead with 20 lbs. to 9 lbs. in Canada and only e1/2 lbs, in the States. 83nt in. the good old stand-by, pork and its products, the States leads with 7914, lbs. to Can- ada's 67lbs, and only 33 in Great Britain. A comparison of consumption for the last few years shows -a decline in the United States since the "peak" year of 16 lbs. a head and an in- crease in Canada between 1900 and 1910 of 18 lbs. The latest detailed estimates for both countries show the national tastes in moats to have varied interesting- ly, as the following table proves: Can^c4e United States Beef and Veal 61 lbs. 67 lbs. Pork 67 lbs. 81. lbs. Mutton and Lamb 9 lbs. 6 lbs.

A casual glance at the report reveals much food for thought, and we are glad to notice that prokress is being made against tuberculosis in our midst. `Education and sound propaganda are bound to have a goodly influence upon the daily hab- its of the community. Particularly instructive is the address of the Pres- ident, Hon. Dr. Schaffner, which re- views the stages of tuberculosis from its first description by Hippo- serates; long before the Christian era; to the present. For many cen- turies, he points out, the disease was believed to be hereditary and incur- able, but today scientific research has established that it is not only preventable but curable if taken in its early stages. icon. Dr. Schaffner lays great stress uponthe import- ance of education on the subject, al- luding to the common school teacher as one of the most powerful agencies in this regard, and he urges the earnest co-operation of all classes as the most effective means of eradicat-, ing the disease. Dr. George D. Por- ter, Secretary, reviews the work of the year and tells of a ci.ecrease in the .death rate front tuberculosis in Canada of thirty per cent. in the last twenty years, clue chiefly to lessened infection, better living con- ditions and earlier treatmnent. There are also interesting addresses by other prominent authorities on tub- erculosis, besides reports from all Sanatorio and local societies in Can- ada.

A bigamy charge brought against Andrew •Brownson of Brueefield by Mrs. Louisa Crozier, came up before Magitsrate Reid of Goderich last week' and the eompainant with- drew the charge. This was rather a strange case. The couple were married at Bayfield thirty years ago. They moved to Michigan and had `snot seen eaeh other for many years and in the meantime both had re- married. `On the death of the wom- an's second llusbancl and on her learning of the whereabouts of hes first and lawful husband, she brought an action against hint for bigamy but on learning that he was in poor health she decided not to. press the Charge.
