"DOdge City is to have packing house. Why
could there not be packing and slaughtcring
house in Nickerson? Why ship SO many hogs to
Kansas City and then after the meat is cured ship
it back here to be consumed? This is done every
year and the consumer pays the freight both ways
1t is very Improbable business for the producer
and consumer. "-Nickerson Argosy.
We don't believe Dodge City il going to get the
packing house. The gentleman who proposed the
enterprise cannot get suitable piece of ground,
and besides no one takes any pride in offering him
land at a reasonable price. We believe he is look
ing up a location farther west. We shall continue
to ship our hogs on foot to Chicago, and thus en-
able middle men, to reap some profit.
