ONE MAN BROWNS
BECAUSE HE CANNOT SWIM, HE
FORFEITS HIS LIFE.

A couple OF Boulder gentlemen are
making very lam:ntable cry about pat
ronizing our home industries. Very
patriotic are they, at this particular time
First. let us 60 into the details and see
how an animal should BE- handled from
the feeding pens until it is slaughtered.
My experience OF IS years Of feeding and
slaughterng teaches me that the sooner
an animal is killed after leaving its feed
ing plac:, the more tende-, juicy and pal
atable its CARCASS will be.
Now. these people claim tina, there are
butchers in Boulder cutting second and
third grade meats OF eastern packers.
Well. so much for their opinions, posing
as experts But let ui examine into that
and see for ourselves. Now. their car.
cases Of beef cost them hung into their
markets from 6 10 6H cents per pound.
No more. Eastern beef costs from 7 to
5 cents per pound.
Who, now, is cutting the cheap meat?
Now let US examine a little into the his
tory of their cattle. and how they get to
market. and finally get into this home
patronizlng market. They are probably
driven for days on their way to Denver,
and become foot sole and lame. and their
bodies becom. feverlsh and not by any
m cans fit subjects for people to cat.
But wait. They have not yet reached
there destination. They are now in the
Denver yards. The Denver packers go
through them and punch them around
so as to get good look a. them. and to
avoid making any mistake in picking
them out. and finally he gets the best all
picked out, and the balance are then
turned into another pen. Now, next
come this Boulder who, ,esale man along
the man who kills for this patriotic
citizen OF ours. He buys the remainder
those poor old foot sore and lame
creatures. and drives them to Boulder,
where he turns them into small pen ad'
joining his slaughter house. where they
can smell the blood, and are kept in this
state OF irritation and frigh, for days,
their systems becoming more and more
feverish all this time. and, finally. they
are killed and brought in to this patriotic
bu cher 10 sell. and be puts on going to.
church face and comes out in the angelic
form Of patriot" He then says to him
self. now will just capture this whole
meat trade. l will tell the dear people
in the name of patriotism. that these
other butchers are cutting inferior meats
just because they are getting them cheap
and know that will get next to the
cost OF these. ior people in Colorado are
erea. believers IN home industries"
Now, would ask who is cutting the
cheap mea,-,he man who buys from the
packer, or the man who buys from this
man who handles stuff that the packers
would not buy at all:
