CAN SAVE 20 PER CENT
Chicago Restaurants to Enter
So, 100000 Trust.

Chicago, Oct. 16-Chicago is to have
a restaurant trust, capitalized at So,
600, 600, if the plans of certain promoters
are carried out, says the Tribune All
the large restaurants Of the city, it is
contemplated, are to be drawn under
one central management, the head of
each establishment however, to retain
the direction of his own place.
A large grocery house, bakeries, cen
trail meat market, and storage ware
houses from which all the cafes will
draw their supplies at wholesale rates, is
one feature OF the combination scheme
In this way, it is held, a saving OF from
to 20 per cent. can be made direct on
the $1,200, 600 that seven of the leading
restaurants of the city eXpend annual
ly for supplies.
The active promoter of this tentative
plan, modelled on the lines of the St
Louis restaurant combination, which
has been in operation for five months
is William A. Conover, an attorney.
Others are supposed to be interested
with him.

SAW MILL TRUST.
Combination Being Formed to
Include Four States.

Memphis, Tenn. Oct. 16.-The Com
mercial Appeal says: A strong effort is
being made in Tennessee. Mississippi.
Louisiana and Arkansas to organize ev-
cry sawmin firm of any Importance into
the hardwood manufacturers associa-
ton of the United States.
The purposes are apparently not in
the nature of any combine to increase
prices, but the organization is being
brought about for protection. This
originally developed at a meeting of
the National Hardwood Lumber associ-
alton, composed largely of wholesale
lumber dealers. The differences arise
over the refusal of the association to
arrange a uniform schedule of insDec-
ton satisfactory to the manufacturers.
The Indications are that this new as
ISOLATION will organize so thoroughly as
to be able to overcome the wholesale
dealers and the addition of the uniform
inspection and probably will result in
the elimination of the middleman. the
manufacturers selling direct to the con-
sumner. While this is true. prices will
not necessarily be increased.
The lumber interests all over the
country are holding meetings to carry
out this end.

souri, river. II says.
Political equity and a decent regard
for local amenities it seems to us would
concede to southwest Kansas the next
United States senator from this state.
For more than thirty years, or ever
since Kansas was admitted. all of her
United States senators have been
chosen from the northeast quarter of
the state. The home of no one of these
from Pomeroy and Lane down to Har-
ris and Burton has been more than
THE homes and interests of nine of
the east line. The result has been that
the material affairs and personal polit-
zeal interests of the old pocket have been
conserved at the expense of more than
half of the inhabitants and three
fourths of the territory comprising the
commonwealth. This is hardly fair.
Has the time not come for conceding
southwestern Kansas one of the sena-

that the great grain and cattle belt be
given a chance and hearing? Has not
the Kaw and Missouri valleys monopO-
lfzed the senatOrships long enough?
Would it not be good politics and proper
from every consideration for the mem

PROFIT

The matter of feed is OF
tremendous importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.
