PREDICT HIGH
PRICED BEEF

That the live stock dealers of the coun
try are alarmed over the reported forma
ton of the Beef Trust. is evident. Among
the members of the National Livestock
Association who recently held a meeting
in Pittshurg, Pa. the subject was cons
family under discussion. The members
dread the coming of winter, for they de
clare that conditions will be even worse
than they are at present.
Meat is somewhat cheaper now, but
they say the drop in price Of heef is but
temporary, and that during the coming
winter it will command higher price
than ever before.
1t was understood that the price OF
beef would be lower, owing to the guam
tity of cattle that has been placed on the
market by farmers, but the old distinc-
ton between pasture fed and granted
cattle has put the beef on the market in
two distinct classes. Pasture fed beef is
selling for just half the price heavy cattle
is commanding When the market is
SGllppCQ VI tuC ioil piouuSeioh, WYNN "A''
be by January the price will revert to the
standard established by heavy stock, and
will soar higher, it is understood, than
during last spring. This is owing to the
scarcity of first class beef.
The class of stock now being sold by
the farmers is commanding price dis
tinctly its own. 1t is almost impossible
to get what is deemed frst-cla beef
Prominent retailers here said this morn
ing that there had not been any really
first class beef in Pittsburg for three OF
four months, and that good, prime, grain
fed cattle were scarcer than ever before
in the country.
j. B. Blanchard, of Omaha, who spoke
against the trust last night, when asked
what plans they had to oppose the c"mbi'
nation, declared it was too early :" say
They could only wait and see what the
trust would d.
One member brought up the question
as to the number of cattle in the United
States No definite answer could be given
and it was decided to place the matter
before Congress and ask that count he
made

SWEETS TO THE SWEET.

Editor Benjamin, Of the Salisbury
Courier" has been made the recip
lent Of sweet potato which knocks
out Colonel Kings prize potato of St
Mary's county, which weighed a
pounds and was thought to be large
enough to furnish banquet for the
whole body Of Democratic Editors
Association. E'litor Benjamin re.
cords the advent Of the Wicomico
sweet potato as follows:
Mr.. S. P. D.vis, Of Nuitrrs district
brought sweet potato I" the Courier
office on FRIDAY that weighed IL!
pounds This is the champion ct ib.
year.
Colonel King will have to ''sing
small'' now, for the Eastern Shore is
ahead again. Singing small" how
ever, is something to which Southern
Maryland is accustomed, except when
Congressman Mudd is around with
his band wagon and brass music.
The delights Of Maryland editors
are not confined to sweet potatoes,
though this is the season for them.
Mrs. Edward NJ. Kelley, of Nutters
district, sent to Editors Brewington,
OF the, Wicomico News two Egypt
ian beets, which weighed respectively
four and live pounds T..ese are not
newspaper beats, but the sugar beets,
which flourish in that land of milk and
honey, the Eastern Shore Of Mary
land, where everything Is great and
good.
Certainly, the rural journalist has
tie better Of his city brother in this
particular. There is Editor Melvin,
of the Ellicott City "Times." who has
Just recovered from his wasp sting,
and is gleeful over the advantages Ell
j,yed by those whose happy lines have
been cast amidst the peace and plenty
everywhere sl,ounding in the couptry
sections of Mar, land.
The Times says:
The laugh is on the city editors this
season. The city man gets money for
subscriptions. it is true, but cord OF
wovd. by which the country subscriber
PAYS his editor, is this fall IN IRE valu-

What more could he u>k,d! Tm
rural editor has firewood to keep the

sausage meat given to him for the
sustenance and enjoyment of his family;
he has sugar beets present to him.;
he has The biggest and the best sweet
potatoes that Eastern and Southern
Maryland can afford. We are pleas

of these inalenable rights attached to
the newspaper profession IN this happy
Commonwealth, in the way of cauli-
flower and celery grown in the glades
of Garrett county, or OF having an
occasional tomato or sweet potato
laid on our shrine for Tue benefit of the
