tumbling in ruins. At least fifteen

subsequently recovered and ia living

result they were buried by the debris
Fourteen days elapsed before thew
were reached. when they were found

Continue to Raise Beef Cattle.

BY studying the market reports Of
the press we get but little information
as to the retail market prices. Take a
dollar and go to the butcher stalls and
see what you can get for it. Looking at
your steak after you have bought it, 1t
will look small, and, weighing 1t, you
have about four pounds or less OF meat,
and that's all, except that you are
pretty sure you have nearly pound of
bone. In cities of from 10000 to 10000
inhabitants the butchers have to buy
their stock of meat. generally only the
hind quarters of the beef. from the
great slaughtering and packing COM
panies. Have to? Exactly SO, because.
if you sell dressed beef Of your own
killing the companies will send you
word that il you continue to do SO they
will set up an opposition shop, under

the power to do SO, and will do 1t re-
morselessly, for they have no con-
science as regards business. as they
call it. Now, what is to be done?
Shall the farmer quit raising beef cat
tie? BY no manner of means. Keep on
raising stock, and hold them till you
can obtain their real value. This may
not be quite up to your idea, but it is
the best you can do until the farmers
