interests In order to maintain prices,
but with the return of better times
new firms entered the field. TO secure
trade In the frozen sweets they sold it
at reduced price, and succeeded in
capturing part of the business. The
Chicago girl profited by the change to
the extent of more cream and less foam
at the druggists or confectioner's. To
beat the new companies the old ones
cut deeper into the price, and then the
young man profited by buying again
a minimum OF cream and maximum
of foam for his sweetheart, but this
time for five instead of ten cents. An
other cut in price brought maximum
of cream and a minimum of foam, still
for five cents. And then the Chicago
girl, with her propensity for desiring
the more expensive things of life, tired
of the old-time sweet and chose some
thing more costly. During this period
of the war ice cream went begging at
25 cents n quart. The manufacturers
claimed to be losing money, the drug

new companies the old ones proposed

of the city will testify. Their efforts
failed to produce the genuine article.
The latest in this line is an attempt
at cornering pigs. 1t is to be under
taken, so the rumor goes, by Messrs.
Armour, Swift, Morris and others in
terested in pigs. We can distinctly re-
member a number of our own boyish
attempts at cornering pigs, none of
which ever proved to be the genuine ar
ticle, and from the memory Of our eX-
periences we should advise the gentle
men interested in this latest att' mpted
corner not to push the pigs too far.
The pig is domesticated and docile
animal, as rule, but he has dislike
to being cornered, as these gentlemen
may find before they complete their
aelf-appointed task, If they ever do.
Then there is u difference in pigs.
Now, the Berkshire breed should be
much more easily cornered than his
brother the razor-back variety, from
Arkansas. The Berkshire, II given but
half a chance, will develop roundness
of body that Is not so conducive to es-
cape as the razor-backs, whose roam
ings through the canebrakes OF the
south have so whitfield off the sides rs
to make his Imprisonment In corner
practically impossible.
Just what the effect of this corner, II
it prove successful, will be on the gen.
eral public is hard to predict, but we
are told that II will In no way affect
