Editors of the agricultural press are
warning farmes regarding the shipment
of so rrany calves to the markets on
account of the present high prices for
veal. The shipments are breaking all
records, and while many are getting
good prices as viewed from the present
the shortage in the beef supply may
send beef prices soaring in few years
so that those who hold on to their cal
yes may reap still larger profit in the
long ran. 1t is said that calves are be-
ing killed in Wisconsin at the rate Of
2, 900 or more daily, the greater num-
Der Of which go to Milwaukee and Chi
cago markets. Just what our city
friends are going to do for meat after
having eaten all the oldstock and finish
ed the calves we do not know. Per.
haps they may have to do as they are
in some portions of Europe-get down
TO l.orse-fiesh, but even the horse mar
ket will not stand much Of a run for
cheap food.

last night.
DR.. II. A. Elkourie was the speaker of
the evening, talking on "rhe Travelling
Man as an Upbuilder' Other matters
tina. were discussed was the pulling out
of mileage at the railroad stations. The
local travelling men hold that they should
be allowed by the railroads to pull mile
age on the trains as it is very incon-
venient for any travelling man to wait
in long line at the various stations
that he may hand his mileage over to the
ticket agent.
The needs for better hotel accommoda-
tions were also thoroughly gone over and
this matter will be further discussed at
another meeting. The smoker adjourned
shortly before o'clock. The next smoker
