Breeders, feeders, or investigators
who consider only the cost of produc-
ton and the market value Of the live
animal. ignoring the demands of the
meat trade. overlook one of the most
important factors that affect the live
stock market and may thus fail to fol-
low the most rational lines OF I'M
provement in breeding and feeding.
With an understanding of meat-trade
requirements 1t is possible for stock
man to Judge the carcass yield and
quality of his animals intelligently
as buyers at the stock yards, because
his knowledge of the feeds used
length OF feeding period. and gains
made are as essential In making such
estimates as the apparent form. con-
dition. and quality Of the fat animal.
upon which points the buyer must
chiefly rely
The descriptions presented are
based on data secured In an investiga-
tion at wholesale meat markets at the
Union stock yards. Chicago. and also
at prominent Wholesale and retail
markets in Chicago and other cities
which are supplied from the large
houses at the Union stock yards. and
may be considered standard for all
the great packing centers of this
country; and since most American
wholesale markets are supplied from
these centers, the classification may
be regarded as standard for the coun-
try. 1t should be borne In mind that
the classifcations are those of the
wholesale meat trade and not of the
I've stock market, and that the
weights given refer to dressed car
casses and cuts, and in no case to live
animals.

The Worth Of the Voice.

1t is indeed the organ OF the soul!
The intellect of man sits enthroned
visibly upon his forehead and In his
eye, and the heart OF man is written
upon his countenance. But the soul
reveals itself In the voice only; as
God revealed himself to the prophet of
old in the still, small voice. and in
the voice from the burning bush. The

sound alone betrays the flowing of the
eternal fountain. invisible to man.

FREED FROM SKIN DISEASE

Oct. 13. 1908. and when three months
old slight rash appeared on his
cheek. What appeared to be a wa
ter blister would form. When 1t
broke. matter would run out, starting
new blisters until his entire face,
head and shoulders were a mass Of
scabs and you could not see a par
ticle of clear skin. Other parts of
his body were affected, but not to
such an extent We tried about every
advertised remedy without avail, in
deed some of them only added to his
suffering and one in particular, the
- Remedy almost put the infant
into convulsions. The family doctor
prescribed for him and told us to
bathe the baby in buttermilk This
did not do any good. SO we took him
to hospital. He was treated as an
out-patient twice a week and he got
worse. If anything. We then called
In another doctor and inside of a
week the boy was. to all appearances,
cured and the doctor said his work
was done. But the very next day It
broke out as bad as ever.
we decided that 1t could not be
cured and must run its course and SO
we just kept his arms bandaged to
his side to prevent his tearing his
flesh. We left Toronto and shortly
after our arrival in Duluth. the Cuti-
cura Remedies were recommended.
We started using them in May, 1909,
and soon the cure was complete You

WEST SWANZEY, N. H.. April IL
One Of the oldest and best known actors
| in America. Denman Thompson. the
man who made THE Old Homestead"
| famous. died at his country estate. in
West Swanzey. early today. Mr.. Thomp
son had been i'll with heart trouble
and uraemia since last month.
Gathered about the bedside of the
| venerable actor when the end came
were a number of his closest relatives.
including his two daughters. Mrs. w. 1.
Fitzpatrick and Mrs. e. A. Mcfarland.
| The funeral services. which, at the
request of Mr.. Thompson. will be SIM
pie and open to the public. will be held
at his late home here Sunday after
noon at $3.50 o'clock. The officiating
clergyman will be Rev. Sumner Mitchell
| Of the Unitarian Church at Keene.
Born in Log Cabin.
Henry Denman Thompson was born in
a log cabin in the hamlet Of Beachwood,
three miles from Girard, Pa, October
| Is. 1888.
Two years previously his father, Capt.
Rufus Thompson, had left West Swan
| zey, which in later years this boy of the
wilderness was to make household
word as the setting for 1.-The Old Home
stead At fourteen Denman returned to
West Swanzey and for three years work
| with his father as a carpenter
| When seventeen he set out for Bos-
| ton in search of employment and soon
| afterward Joined Tyson's Circus as a
| property boy and actor. The following
| winter he made his first stage appear
| ance as "supe" under Charlotte Cush-
man. who was playing in Macbeth"
at the Howard Athenaeum. Two years
| later, in Lowell, he had his first speak
| ing part, and following this he went
| about the country playing Irish and
negro sketches.
While travelling Thompson was taken i'll
with rheumatism and as he lay in bed in
Pittsburg he thought out the sketch call
ed Joshua Whitcomb, which, later de-
| veloped into THE Old Homestead made

Short Season in Vaudeville.
At the Boston Theater in 1856 THE
Old Homestead was first produced and
1t had a continuous run after that time.
Until a few years ago Mr.. Thompson
travelled constantly with the company.
but as the weight of years bore more
heavily upon him he was obliged to give
up all but the principal cities to an un-
derstudy. and finally to quit altogether.
During the winter of 1910 he created a
short sketch modelled from portion
of the original Joshua Whitcomb,
which he played in vaudeville for two
months.
This year the old fascination of the
footlights returned. and early in the sea-
