Margin Of ProNt.

The industry is operated on mar
gin Of less than cents to each dol
lar Of sales. Swift & Co. do not sell
at retail. Their entire output is sold
at wholesale to many thousands Of
dealers in various parts Of the world.
There arc hundreds Of local slaughter
ers throughout the United States,
who buy their live stock in competi-
ton with the packer doing an inter-
state and international business. Like
wise the packer must sell in compe-
tition with the local slaughterers.
There are no secret processes in the
industry, no complicated and expen-
sive factories, and as live stock can
be purchased in almost every hamlet
and city, and the preparation Of
meats is simple In the extreme, local
slaughtering will long remain a fac.
tor in the production of fresh meats
and provisions.

Wholesale Distributing Houses.


A wholesale distributing house is a
giant refrigerator, but instead Of
shelves there are trolley rails, from
which are suspended hooks to hang
the carcasses. Some Of the houses
cost as much as hundred thousand
dollars to build and equip. AS rule
they are Of pressed brick, the insides
being lined-door, walls and ceiling
with highly polished hardwood. The
floors are covered daily with fresh
sawdust, and all are kept spotlessly
clean. There are over three hundred
Of these wholesale houses in various
cities Of the United States, and the
public is always welcome to visit
them.

The above is true, and applies
to the conditions named. Since
our friend of the CASH Book
takes it to apply to him. SO be it.
We shall now explain. A poul-
try book of so pages was to be
printed, and there were to be 500
copies. We bid 90c a page, and
would have printed it on good
book paper, folioed it, and PACED
it. The Cash Book took the job
for II cents page, printed it on
common newspaper, did not folio
Or page it. He claims he had not
tame enough to do a good job, but
il would have taken no longer tC
print it on good book paper than
ell common news. No. We still
claim we are right, "When 4
printer takes IA job for less thar
it is worth. he Sights the work
unless he possesses the proper
nerve We will duplicate sucf
Jobs as the Cash Book done or
the poultry book any time for 7lc
a page, but we will not do sucf
work on good paper, in gooc
shape, for any less than 90c 1

he will be doing business her,

THE case of Louis Houck VS..
the Cape iirardeau County Far
Il Park Acknowledgements
for selling liquor without license
was an interesting one. 1t will
be remembered that this case
came up before Judge Davis just
before the opening of the county
fair last October and injunction
papers We're served on jim Miller
and Chas. Freeman, but they
went ahead and sold liquor any
way, and disregarded the action
of the court. Judge Riley, in
giving his decision, in substance
said that it was not his purpose
to give these violators the maxi
mum punishment, but that he
desired to teach them and all
others that the opinions of the
court must be obeyed. He there
fore fined each $500 and instruct
ed the sheriff to place them in
Jail till the fine was paid. The
case was appealed.
Our friend Daues is making
the proper fight against saloon
men who violate the law, and as
long as Charley does this we are
with him and every law abiding
citizen is with him. A saloon
keeper has no more right to
violate the law and go unpun-
ished than any one else. When
ever any set Of men take it upon
themselves to disregard law, or
der or common decency with
impunity, they must be checked

batters. Conroy having jumped from Al
to 800, while Arends has made an even
greater gain. his figures were .346 a
month ago. while now they are .i86. Drum
and Cotter must also be considered In the
running for the batting honors as both are
