A friend had fifty acres of oats, a
good crop which will yield fifty bush
els an acre. He was a little behind the
times, because he went right to stack

neighbors left their oats In the shock,
waiting for a machine to thrash out
the field The result is that our friend

Postal Card Deluge.

Scarcely any one ascends Mont
Blanc now without taking a package
Of postal cards with him, and the first
thing he does after he has admired
the scenery for a few minutes is to
write on each card a few words eX.
pressing his admiration. Then he ad.
dresses the cards to friends and, If he
has more cards than friends, he ad.
dresses some to strangers.
Moreover if his circle of acquaint-
ances is not large he writes his own
name and address on several cards.
He then mails all the cards and CON
sders that one Of his chief duties as
tourist has been done.
That friends and even strangers will
value the cards sent by him he is GER
tain, since they We're written on Mont
Blanc, and he is sure that he will be
highly pleased TO find on his return
home the cards which he has addressed
to himself.
Thousands Of such postal cards, it is
said are mailed daily, and as result
the postal clerks are not in the best
humor, and are longing for the time
when Mont Blanc will put on its win
ter raiment and tourists will be obliged
to stay at home.

The oueerest Lawsuit ON Record.

Perhaps the most remarkable suit
ever brought is ON the records of the
Court Of the EXchequer in England,
1t was filed on October 3, 1925, and il
sets forth very clearly that John Everit
and Joseph Williams were highway
robbers.
In the succinct legal phrases the com
plant says that the men formed q
partnership for the purposes Of carry
ing on business as highwaymen. II
was nightly profitable, rs was shown
by the fact that Everit sued Williams
for the equivalent of $4,000. "being for
moneys wrongfUlly appropriated to dc.
fondants private purse"
This was the amount in dispute after
the partnership had lasted only year
Then Everit claimed that he had Gls,

No Profit on Dressed BeeF.

This is the way the packer proceeds
to demonstrate that the sale of dressed
beef has yielded him no profit since
the first of last April. The pres
ent average price of 1200-pound
prime, coln-fed beef steer" is $3.50
per 100 pounds, that is, 800 for the
animal as it stands in the Chicago
stockyards Adding to this the cost of
slaughterlng, which is $3.50, the car
cass ready for dressing, has necessi-
tated an outlay Of S91.J0. Practice
has shown that such an animal will
dress" about fifty-six per cent. of its
live weight, that is, G72 pounds. Upon
the other forty-four per cent, which
Is hide, horns, hoofs, blood, surplus
fat, trimmings, and offal, the packer
realizes, ON an average. S14.T5. So the
two "sldes" of the steer, as they hang
in the packing-house refrigerator have
cost $76.75. The moment the packer
moves the 6I2 pounds of dressed meat
his expenditures begin anew. Sending
the carcass to New York, for instance,
costs $7.05. which is the aggregate of
freight at 40 cents per 100 pounds, and
Of refrigeration during the journey
and selling charges at 80 cents per 100
pounds. So, when the time comes for
the retailer to negotiate for the meat,
it has cost the packer $3.50, or 1913
cents per pound. Since April 1 the
highest wholesale price for dressed
beef in New York has been 11.5 cents,
OF eight-tenths Of a cent less than the
cost of production. Pursuing this
arithmetical process with an average
steer, of HOO pounds at $40 the hun
dredweight, the usual price, it will be
found that the dressed carcass on sale
in New York represents an eXpendl-
ture on the part of the packer Of ia
cents per pound, nearly one cent
pound more than he can obtain for it,
