Some Advice
About Colds

Take warning from the first
sneeze and check a cold before
the lungs are affected.

of Glycerine and eight ounce of
pure Whiskey. These ingredients
a be bought in any irst-class
drug store and easily mixed to-
gether in a large bottle. 1t is
claimed that a teaspoonful of the
mixture four times a day will
reak up a cold In twenty-four
hours and cure any cough that
is durable. This formula Is high

KENDRICK

The tar-MirrOr is in receipt of a
letter from south Idaho lady an
nouncing that she is candidate for
a certain office. She says she would
like to pay for the notice of her can
didacy, but understands it is in vio-
lation of the law. The Star-Mirror
also understands that it costs money
to pay printers and will not run the
announcement. Why sh ould the
printer, more than the merchant or
the butcher or the banker or the
candlestick maker, do the work for
nothing? Why should the publisher
of a newspaper be expected to do
nate time and money to advance the
candidacy of people whom he does
not know, and about whom he cares
nothing? We would advise candi-
dates to send their announcements
to the police department., or to the
city clerk, or to the preacher, or to
any other class of citizen who has
just as much time, and can just as
we'll affOt d to donate to the cause as
the publisher. If the law would
make it a crime for a candidate for
office to buy newspaper space, then
let the candidates obey the law. If
publicity becomes a crime Just be-
cause it happens to be paid for, how
does it become n virtue when done
for nothing by the same paper. One
thing certain the editors of the state
are not going to step into the breach
and shoulder the financial end OF the
campaign of all the various candi-
dates.

II. II. Mack Says Butchers Are Milking
Slim Profits EOen At Record Prices

There is very little profit in the cur
rent meat business. High prices imply
scarcity, and IL IS d well-known fact
that when any line iof commodities H.
scarce the net prdit yielded TO the
dealer dwindles dangerously near 20
the vanishing point. The drover can.
lot make money buying and selling
livestock because he cannot buy
enough 10 make a carload az a snip
ment still he must continue In the
business or he will lose his trade
The Wholesale butcher finds IL diff.
cult to make a profit because OF the
large amount OF money that be mus
have invested and the high cost Of the
raw material The retailer has the
hardest fight TO make a dollar out Of
the meat business, and. IN addition TO
all the rest OF his troubles ne is given
credit for hogging ell OF tho profit IN
the deal The man who can cut sol.
plus a fair profit, out OF a 550-pounl
carcass u meat Is an expert and de-
serves 20 prosper.
There Is another element in connec-
ton with the handing and slaughter
ing Of live animals which always de-
ereases the profits realized by the men
engaged IN the business. namely, the
shrinkage From the time that the
I've animal leaves is native barnyaId.
until ii IS consumed. the process OF
shrnkage continues and the loss in
weight must be divided among tic
various dealers who handle the ant
NAL while IL is alive and its meat
after il IS dead. The loss by shrinH-
age IS very heavy during cold, stormy
weather.
II VIII be seen that the loss by
shriukage Is much greater when prices
are high than when they are low
For example. II a carload OF cattle
shrihl; 500 pounds in transit this loss
must be provided for before any profit
can accrue from the undertaking. The
shrinkage loss OF cattle worth S. per
cwt will be just twice as much as il
would be II they were worth S. per
/ cwt. Il will be noticed that In none
/ Of the made.to-order arguments In the
long indictment against the butcher IS
this important matter Of shrinkage
mentioned or course not; IL would
tend 10 cut down the butchers profit
showing Indeed, 4, might. in many
cases. prsyc beyond a doubt that the
butcher had lost money by buying
slaughtering and selling again, a
4 l,000-pound bullock.
