Packers Idea Endorsed.

The packers hit the nail on the
head when in their Chicago convention
Monday they suggested that each OF
the small farmers OF the United
States would find IL profitable TO fat
ten few head of prime beeves every
year, according tn Douglas Rathbone,
an Amarillo Texas, cattle ruiser, who
is at the Hotel White.
AT present cattle raisers cannot
possibly meet the demand for beef
said Mr.. Rathbone, and. as the pack
ers say, it Is up TO the small farmer
At the present price Of beef and pork
the small farmer can find no better
use for his by-productS, such as nm
marketable vegetables, detached bits
as well as some of his grain, than 10
feed them 10 beeves or porkers. II
will make good money for him and
If he goes about it right, will produce
prime beef and the hest Of pork. II
the practice were generally followed
cattle buyers would pick up car
lot OF cattle or hogs every once in
while in each community and save
the trouble OF individual marketing,
And it would solve the meat question.
The packers have the right idea, and
It is not altogether a selfish one"

From January 10 November !. 1911, there
have been i32i fewer deaths under one

clearly evident that the little mothers
