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 a rule
they are of pressed brick, the insides
being lined-foor, 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.

chasing cattle, sheep and hogs prevail
at all cities. At Chicago, which is
the largest market, there are about
two hundred and fifty buyers, repre-
senting packers, local slaughterers in
various cities and exporters. OF this
number, less than score are employ

The farmer ships his live stock to
Chicago, consigns them to a commits
sion firm at the Union Stock Yards,
who sees that they are unloaded and
put in pens. Then the buyers inspect
them, make their offers to the COM
mission dealer, who accepts or rejects
as his judgment dictates. All buying
must be finished at o'clock each day,
and the buyer must pay spot cash.
If the commission man has no salts
factory offers, he can hold his stock
over to the next day. He gets his
commission from the farmer, and nat.
urally strives to get the highest pos
sible price for his client.

to the friends of both.
There is considerable speculation re-

The date and place Of the message

probably lead to another conflict, sim,
