probably four times az much goods
easily had the factory the room to
produce them. At present, large
order is being filled with a huge Chi
cago firm and the work is being d.
rected TO this contract at present.
This Is for whole kahki suits which
will be sold by the mail order house
by the lot or by the suit, whatever
the case might be. At present the or.
ders are about two months ahead and
they can be obtained almost at will
by the company without even the use
Of a travelling salesman. This fact
alone will go to show that this in.
dustry is widely known throughout
the country.
On going into the room where the
garments are made, It is very inter.
esting. Everything is run in a system.
attic order and everything seems to
work in unison with the other. In
fact 1t reminds one Of bee hive dur
ing the busy season for the bees.
Here we find every late improvement
in the machines and everything nee
essary to carry on the work Is to be
found in a convenient place. The
cutting machine Is something inter.
esting. 1t is a very small affair bu,
1t will cut through several inches OF
heavy, strong material and a small
line can be followed with the cutter
by one who is experienced at the
work. These facts can be accounted
for easily because when the factory
started new after the fire, It was with
the intention of producing better
grades of stuff.
1t is the intention of the company
now to continue the manufacture of
all of this high grade products and
probably to almost discontinue the
making of plain overalls.
At any rate, this is a very inter.
esting factory and the most of the
people have been entirely ignorant
Of the great amount of work that has
been going on there.

the general assembly.
Summing up the result of its la.
bors, the committee says: THE re.

chiefly at the doors of the packers of
various kinds who beat down the
prices paid to the farmer and put up
the prices paid to retailers"
The intermediary cause Is given as

maker. Prices are maintained, the
report says, by $4,000 trusts, sssocia
tions, leagues, ct cetera, and that
there will be no relief until some
thing is done to rid the country OF
these.
Replete With Statistics.
The committee says that its exam
ination has revealed the fact that
since July 1, 1906, breadstuffs have
increased In price 100 per cent; but

cheese, 164 per cent; pork, 1856 pei

them have already taken form in
bills which have from time to time
been introduced in the house and

bill for reorganization of the agri

taught better farming methods. An
other bill provides for more rigid
examination of weights and meas

An unusually pathetic case was the
