Minutes OF National Packing Company
TO Be Demanded TO Uphold
Contention Of veeder.

Chicsfko, Jan. 2.-When the trial OF
the packers is resumed Tuesday
morning. with Henry Veeder. secre-
tary OF the old pool" and later Of the
National Packing company, on the
stand, the government will undertake
to establish:
That representatives OF six packing
companies, in weekly meetings, fixed
the price OF fresh meat for the cur
rent week by ballot; and,
That the National Packing company
was in reality but substitute success
sor for the illegal pool dissolved
when II faced prosecution in 1900.
To prove these charges, which form
the basis of the governments case.
the minutes OF the National Packing
company will be demanded OF young
Veeder, who also will be asked the
specific question: did the packers
by ballot fix margins which amounted
to price fixlng?"
Testimony dealing In blunt, direct
fashion with these important points
was not reached on the first afternoon
of the testimony of Veeder. Jr., but
he was led right up to them. He ad-
mitted that reports of margins" were
made weekly to him by the packers,
thereby confessing that a system of
margins did exist, as charged by the
government. but he was not taken
over the ground OF the application or
effect of the margins as to price FIX
ing. Neither was ne asked the point
ed question: why Is the National

Professor Unna OF Hamburg. Ger
many, and DIR. Sabourand. the leading

a microbe causes badness. Their
theory has time and again been amply
verified through research experiments

eminent scientists. This microbe
lodges In the sebum. which Is the nat.
ural hair oil. and when permitted 90

aud In time the pores entirely close,
and the scalp gradually takes on a
shiny appearance. When this happens
there Is no hope OF the growth Of hair
being revived.
We have a remedy which will. we
honestly believe. remove dandrun. ex.

circulation In the scalp and around the
