Illinois league afre by his brilliant
work early in the season on the Osh-

set in, and a long rest failed to bring
back his former ability. Before his
injury he had performed in twenty-one

4 Remedy No Family

No matter how healthy a human
being may be it is safe to say that
not many months are passed without
Jme obstruction of the bowels, in other
lords, constipation, even if only tenn
orary. The bloating, the dull feeling
nay start after the evening meal. If a
axative is not taken that night it is
certain that sleep will not be sound,
and you will awaken unrefreshed.
Hence, it is important for you and for
Ill the members of your family that a
:ood, reliable laxative be always kept
n the house for just such emergency.
Il is sure to be needed, and when needed
gu want it at hand. No family that is

HIGHER Meat Prices.

has issued bulletin which pre-
sents the most thorough analysis
of the food situation confronting
the people of the United States
that has ever been prepared.
This bulletin, as regards the
supply of beef, Distinctly says
that prices are bound to continue
upward, unless improved methods
are adopted by the meat produces
of the country.
The department finds that
in the last six years there has
been a decline of 80 per cent,
in the number of beef cattle,
increased. 1t finds that present
production leaves practically no
surplus for export. We are con-
Stunning nearly all the beef we
raise. The report holds out lit
tie hope of relief from Canada.
Mexico, South America and Aus
tralia. because countries which
formerly consumed our surplus
are our sharpest competitors in
bidding for the supplies of these
countries which are also declin-
ing. Therefore. the only pros
pect before the people of this
country is higher prices for
meat because the prices Of all
other meats will rise in sympathy
with that of beef, unless product
ion shall be increased.
The department suggests that
farmers can return to raising cat
tie for the market, as the time
has now come when they can do
so with profit. 1t also suggests
the establishment of public abat-
tories which shall slaughter farm
raised beeves; and the sale of
meats through public markets, as
in European countries, thus cut
ting out the middle man. These
suggestions look to the elimina.
ton of much of the cost of stor-
age and transportation, items
which considerably increased the
price of beef, something which
can be done through the estab
lishment of centrally located
slaughter houses and markets
The departments suggestion
ought to result in enlisting tn
farmers ofthe country in profit
able industry.
