his belief Of q week ago that he was
suffering ONLY from a slight attack of
bronchitis, "Rube,' Waddell, once. a
great baseball pitcher, has left Mime
apolis to begin a. battle with tubercu-
losis at his sisters home in San An

steadily weaker, and has been in bed
for several days. His physicians fear

Results have just been published by the
Department Of Agriculture from a three
year investigation into the "shrinkage"
OF cattle while being transported from
the farm or ranch where they were rear
ed TO the stock yards where they are
sold 1t is expected by all cattle ship

weight on cattle sent to market. but only
few pounds weight per head makes an
enormous aggregate with the thousands
OF head sent annually to the various big
stock yards
1t was found that the difference in
feeding and handling of animals varied
greatly and made great difference In
the final result. but the experts were able
to get average figures for the differen,
classes OF cattle that. it is believed will
go far toward heading off the many
thousand dollars worth of expensive liti-

Cows and Calves Lose Most.
1t was found that for a seventy hour
railroad run there was a loss of from
4 to per cent in the live weight OF tho
cattle. There was less difference thar
had been expected between staIl-fed and
range cattle, but cows and calves lost
more weight than steers and bulls.

prosperity of the people.
