PRODUCE.

The most prominent feature OF the
market this morning was an easier
feeling In peaches. Shipments from
the islands were smaller than on Sat-
urday, but were too soft to hold and
had to be handled at once. The fact
that the city markets are being sup
piled with peaches from nearby grow
ers helped 20 ease the market. Apples
plums and pears were In large supply.
There was no poultry in the market
being nominally steady. Eggs are firm
mt the last advance. and butter IL
called steady.

will have no one to blame but himself.
And so, when noted feeder or
breeder, or the editor Of your agrf-
cultural paper, speaks of this or that
desirable point in form, he is but in.
dicating this or that part OF the car.
cass which the packer has found, by
feeling the pulse of the market, that
you, or any ene'of the s0,000,000 other
persons in the United States just like
you, care the most for and are more
willing to buy at the higher price. The
packer wants an animal that is deep
and broad in the loin, Well sprung and
well covered over the prime ribs, and
deep, wide and long in the round, be-
cause the public will pay him more
for this kind of an animal on the hook.
Breed and feed any, other type and
the packer will turn you down.
This emphasizes the need of pure
bred sire of good form in grading up
the herd. He will be money maker.
because he is more nearly like the
type which the packer has found the
public wants. When the farmer comes
to realize this premium which has
been placed on the animal of good
type, he will begin TO make money by
feeding and breeding. Until then, he
cannot hope to compete with those
who do recognize form and who OBJ
tain these fancy and less fancy prices
for their produce. aE

When Jack Hilliard announced that
he expected to spend lonely Thanks
giving, as his family had not returned
from Europe, Harry Clifton, his fell
low clerk In the insurance Office. laid
aside his pen and whirled around Oh
his high stool.
"Come and eat dinner with us.
jack he said cordially. 1--WE would
be glad to have you"
"Thank you, Harry. I will come"
accepted Jack. Its mighty nice Of
you to ask me-" Ill
Jack Hilliard was only clerk in the
insurance Office, but his position was
a more desirable one than any of the
others. His father was the president
of the company, and young Jack was
learning the business from the bottom
up. He had commenced as Office boy
and was now a senior clerk. So well
had he progressed, however, that his
father had decided to promote him to
an official position at the beginning
Of the new year. This was a secret
that Jack did not know.
He had accepted Harry Clifton's in
vitation to dinner mainly because he
sincerely liked the ambitious young
man who had worked 50 conscientious
ly at his elbow for several years. He
and Harry Clifton had. worked their
way up in the Office side by side, and
when the time came for his father to
promote Jack Hilliard there was
strong probability that Jack would
urge that Harry Clifton was equally
deserving of promotion, and there was
also a strong probability that Harry
would receive it.

Relation of
Form to Profit.

University Farm.


The farmer just embarked in the
beef, mutton, or pork business, when
he has sold his first animals to the
local butcher or the local buyer, or
has himself shipped them to a live
stock market, is often chagrined to
find that he receives for them a much
lower price than he expected. In
many instances the fact is put down
as resulting from a giant conspiracy
to rob the farmer, in which the butch
er, the buyer and the packer play the
leading roles.

The packers, trained by many years
of worldwide business experience to
place a premium upon the kind of
animal which the meat eating public
has told them it wants, have estab-

form for the breeder and feeder to
follow. Those who come the closest
to this ideal form will come the near

animals are the ones on which the
packers can make the most money,
even though they pay much higher
