SWIF 7 CLEARED
BY JURY Of BAD
MEAT CHARGE
Americas Investigators Return mo
Bill Against Chicago Packers
After Cleanup Campaign.

AMERICUS, July 12.-BecauSs
there was insufficient evidence on
which to base an Indictment. the
Sumter County Grand Jury. in spe-
ciaI session, has returned mo bill"
against the local agent of Swift & Co..
the big Chicago meat packers.
Charges were recently preferred
against the agent of Swift & Co. by
City Physician Chambliss and State
Food Inspector Methvin. following a
rigid inspection of meat markets,
slaughter pens and grocery stores Of
Americas.
They condemned a quantity of meat
and some live stock as being unfit.
Some of the meat markets and
slaughter pens were ordered closed
and others were ordered cleaned and
otherwise improved for the more san
itary handling of their wares.
Because of the large volume Of
business done by Swift & Co. In
Americas and vicinity through the To-
cal distributing plant the impression
prevailed that some of the tainted
meat had been supplied by this con-
Germ. However, when the Grand Jury
heard the evidence it was found that
Swift & Co. had not either intention
ally or unintentionaIly furnished such
meat and the charges against the To-
cal agent were dismissed with a mo
bill'' Endorsement by the Grand Ju-
rors.
City Physician Chambliss Is still &C
tive in his campaign against impure
foods. having this week condemned a
carload of watermelOns, after several
persons who had partaken of the fruit
became I'll. These were termed bit
ter melons" the sale of which Is pro-
hibted by the State pure food laws.
They came from a South Georgia
truck farm.

which is then distributed among the
subscribers of the shares in the pro-
portion in which they have given their
notes secured by the mortgages.
THE association lends no money ex-
cept to its stockholders.
Each stockholder has one vote
without respect to the number of his
shares.
Secretary Can Sell Bonds.
ITO provide funds the Secretary of
the Treasury is authorized to sell 8
per cent twenty-year bonds when
necessary.
THE rate of interest the association
charges the subscriber is immaterial
so long as it charges enough to repay
the government loan at per cent
and the administration expenses of
making the loan, because if the sub
scriber is charged more than the cost
it all comes back to him in the wind
up.
Allowing for moderate administra-
ton expense and repayment to the
Government as indicated, it will be
found that borrowers may have the
use of an average sum of $4,000
during the entire twenty years, at an
average rate of 3.8 per cent. In other
words, the payment of per cent an
nually of the sum borrowed, pays
both debt and interest and accumu-
lates in the treasury of the association
3d. 1865, sum equal to 81 per cent
of the sum borrowed.
THE advantage of the system is
shown by comparing the results with
straight loan of S24,89O at per
cent interest for twenty years. The
sum paid for interest would be $29,-
S6S.
Under the proposed system the
use of the same sum could be Sc
cured for the same length of time at
net cost of $1S 1913, making a saw
ing of $10,975. This shows what COM
pound interest will do for the farmer
when it is working for him"
