Farmers and seef.

At least one practical suggestion
has come out OF the convention oil
the American Meat Packers associ-
alton which was held al Chicago this
week in regard to increasing the
supply OF beef in this country and
thus reducing the cost 10 the consnm-
er. There was agreement that the
solution lay with the small farmer.
If every farmer it was
pointed out, would raise two
o. three steers, the problem would
be solved and there would be an as
suranee of abundant and cheap meat
for the increasing population oil the
country.
During the past fifteen or twenty
years conditions as regards cattie
raising have changed very materially
The average farmer came TO believe
during that period he could not sue
cessfully compete with the big cattle
men of the west and he gave up the
raising of cattle for beef purposes.
The packers who are forecasting a
most serious beef famine for this
country If conditions are not changed
radically, aee OF the opinion that the
small farmer can be shown that it
will be profitable for him TO return
to the business. even on u limited
scale. and to prove their sincerity
have set aside a fund OF half mil
lion dollars for the starting and carry
ing on OF q campaign oil education to
that end. At 4 meeting OF bankers
and agricultural experts held in
Minnesota, plan was adopted for
the stocking of the state with cattle.
Farmers require financial assist
ance and the local bankers are their
natural allies when such work is be-
ing planned. Consumers, who are
vitality int ested in Che lowering of
The price of beef, would far rather
have the meat supplied by American
farmers and stock raisers than by
distant foreign sources. II appealed
to and organized for such purpose
they will cooperate. The resources
of this country are not used up by
any means.-rroy Record.

the best example OF the newer

An Old vermonter

Friends in Vermont and Massachu-
sets will regret to learn of the death
several months ago, of Judge Lewis
B. Hibbard curator of the Des
Moines college library. Before going
to Iowa, about four years ago. he
had been for score of years muni-
cipal judge OF Highland Park, Ill
Back of that he was a Baptist clcrg-
man, at one time located at Adams
in Berkshire, and he always retained
a lively interest in the affairs of that
denomination. But 1t was as an in
dependent newspape" editor and Writ
Ser that he was best known. He made
his mark in Vermont as editor OF the
Ludlow Tribune, and had been in
charge OF the Farmers Review of
Chicago and other publications. For
over 30 years he wrote occasional and
always suggestive letters for The Re-
publican, signed "Old Windsoc" Mr..
Hubbard was active and efficient in
|. the management OF the exposition at
New Orleans in 1884. and two years
later was manager OF the Minnea-
polls exposition. He was greatly il.
terested in farm development in the
United States. Mr.. Hubbard thus had
a wide experience and greatly profit
ed by it, so chat the collegians in
,Des Moines must have found their Ii
bra ian helpful along many lines, one
who knew life and saw It sanely. Mr..
Hubbard had been a progressive long
before q host OF modern reformers
thought Of advocating things for
which he and others had been pa
tiently battling year in and year out.
There was no cant about him and no
assumption of superior virtue, but
his faith that worked for the better
ment of humanity never WaYered. He
saw progress and welcomed it. but
always called for more. Wherever he
touched people it was to inspire them
to better things. He was critical and
4 good fighter, but above that he was
constructive and fair The Republi-
can Is glad 10 pay respect to the
memory OF an old friend who did his
part wherever fortune placed him, in
a world that was of absorbing inter.
est to him.--Sprlngfeld Republican.
