what about the retail butcher? He
has to buy the entire carcass. thus
must sell II and out Of the proceeds
pay his rent, labor. city delivery OF the
meat, stand the loss from bad accounts
and make living. He finds that the
great majority OF his customers call
for steaks and roasts and but few CT
them want the less desirable parts.
thus he must raise the prices on the
desirable portions to Offset the loss on
the less desirable parts because he
must buy the entire carcass. The best
way to reduce the cost Of living from
the beef standpoint is to purchase
some Of the less desirable portions at
reasonable prices and have them pre-
pared and served in a palatable way
Thus in the last analysis the secret Of
reducing the cost Of living, so far as
beef Is concerned, must in large
measure rest with the housewife.
Kennedy Suggests Remedy.
"Legislation, for the purpose Of pre-
serving the calves and young stock Is
not practical and in my Judgment will
never work. Sentiment against the
wholesale slaughter Of heifer calves
and cows Is bound to come and will be
very helpful in saving the future sup
ply Of beef cattle.
Beef cattle should be grown on our
farms as a part OF our soil conserva-
ton plan. To succeed in this work
we must put more land under grass
and thru the use of the silo utilize
more of our corn stalks, millions OF
acres Of which are annually wasted,
ana grow some alfalfa on every farm
Then and then alone will we be IN
position to proitably get back into the
business Of raising beef cattle and
furnishing American beef for our
American people"

Ackley, Oct. 20.-Mr. Gundy Nicklas.
of this city. residing Just at the edge
Ct the town, claims to be the champion
corn raiser of this part Of the state. as
he harvested a crop that went l92
bushels to the acre. This is no fish
story, Mr.. Nicllas having plenty OF
witnesses of his harvesting. who can
testify to his unusual crop. The corn
was drilled in. the hills foot apart
and after going thru the field once
with horse cultivator he did the work
with n hoe. He had just seventy -four
square rods planted and this patch
yielded him ninety-six bushels and 1t
is good corn. The land has not had a
bit of fertilizer in five years and he
has rotated his crop of corn with pota-
toes. 1t certainly is remarkable eX-
ample CT intensive farming.
