The iMPENERTRAsLE WALL.

In the process Of tearing down an
ancient building which in the middle
ages had been nunne-y. workn.en
came upon a blank wall enclosing
narrow cell. Within. when the bars
and pickaxes had forced thei- way, the
bones Of skeleton told Of q tragedy.
Here. in some pas day Of cruelty one
false 10 her VOWS had found final earth
y punishment. Stone by stone the
courses Of masonry had risen while
she crouched in terror. When the last
course had been laid and the woman

the executionars went on CIT into the
sunlight. But the woman stayed on
Of its i-npenerrabie face to await the
opening Of the crypt and the resurrsc-

We Go not sea- woEIieIi who have gone

BABIES GROW up. CALVES ARE KILLED.


Swift e. Co, the packers, have is
sued a very interesting booklet upon
the subject Of meat supply in which
the cause OF the high price OF living
is very clearly set forth. Not only
did the number of cattle at the mar
kets decrease in 1912 over half mil
lion head as compared to 1911. but the
average weight per head declined
eighteen pounds. This gave three quar-
tiers of a billion pounds less beef for
that year or seven pounds per capita.
th:rty-hve pounds less per family.
In the past ten years the number
Of people in this country TO be fed has
increased l6,562O00 while the number
Of cattle in the same period decreased
1880 head Then again We
slaughtered in 1911 over eight million
calves averaging less than seventy
pounds in weight each. which would
have produced 600 pounds Of beef each
had they been natured. This decreased
for year or 200 pounds per family.
Swift & Co would like to see legis-
lature TO prevent the slaughter Of the
calves but until that time comes they
advise people to eat more mutton.
This meat ranks next 10 beef in
strength building qualities" they say.
Is, ,;,,1y, - to :1N-
food. delicate in flavor and the easiest
of all 20 digest" That it is the cheap
est TO buy IS evidenced by comparison.
AT Wholesale prices in Chicago one
dollar will buy fifteen pounds of NUT
ton LON and only five and a half
pounds OF beef ribs: fourteen pounds
Of mutton hind quarter and only eight
and half pounds Of beef round; TWEEN
~ pounds Of mutton fore quarter and
emily ten pounds Of beef chuck. The
big packing company then concludes
that:
If the housewife could be brought
20 read the wholesale market prices Of
LTeSSC peel, mutton anu !dIIlO, as
quoted in the p.oducec dunn Of the
daily papers. and make correspond
ing adaptation Of her cuisine the con-
seQuent consumers demand would keep
meat prices much more uniform than
under the present habit Of blindly pur-
chasing beefsteak and roast beef"
The common American practice Of
calling butcher by phone to order
quarters worth Of beefsteak un-
! doubtedly has a great deal to do with
the prehibilive price Of beef on the
! block today, but the very apparent
shortage IN the supply as compared 10
the growth OF months TO DE fed is
MIA, IS soaring prices Of food products
IT this country and doubling the earn
ing power Of land. Population is
doubling upon the land and we are
slow 10 adjust our manner OF living 10
the increased density. Efficiency en-
gineer.ng il household management
has become absolutely necessary in ev-
cry family establishment in the land.

ton plantations. and consequently the
supply IL unequal to the demand.
When speaking Of speed horses, he
said that he saw q number Of trotters
and PAGERS. but the real classy horse
OF this caliber II hard to ind.
One thing that struck him most
forcibly In his western trip was the
large number Of mules to be seen
thruout all Of these three states.
He saw no less than 5000 mules in a
country where q few years ago mule
was almost unknown. This he says Is
due to the fact that mules are in big
demand and bring such good prices
that 1t Is profitable now to take the
trouble to breed them. Well matched
mules weigh 1880 pounds are
worth from $3.50 to $375 pair. while
those Weighing from $500 to 2.soo
pounds are much sought for and 1t Is
No easy task to find them.

THE BIGGEST HOG.
TWayerly Independent.1

Howard A. McCanree. Of jackson
township. near Waverly Junction.
butchered his 5-year.old pig last
Thursday. After this hog was well
dressed" he weighed SS5 pounds. His
gross weight, just before he was killed.
was 1000 pounds. It Will be remem-
bered that when this red fellow was
on exhibition at the Bremen county
fair in 1911. he weighed 1.140 pounds
and The Independent then made the
statement that he was the biggest hog
on Uncle Sans ranch and this state
ment has not yet been successfully
contradicted. He was born on the Nc
Caffree farm on Sept. IA, 1907. He has
always been well, and ready for his ra-
tons at meal time. The meat seems to
be just as good as any other pork.
Until we are shown to the contrary, we
shall claim that Howard A. McCaffree
of Bremen county. Iowa, raised AMI
owned during the few years Just past.

A Word TO
s.The StOrekeeper'

! Il ii e manufacturer
who tries to help you
sell his goods after he
has induced you to stock
up on his line deserves
your hearty co-opera-
ton.
But it is up to you to
decide whether the man
l1faeturer is actually
/ helping You, or whether
he only thinks he is.
If he is creating a de-
sire for his product
without creating an ae-
tual demands on your
store for it, his help is
of little value to you.
The one big advan-
tage of newspaper adj
vertising is that it ere
ates not only desire, but
actual demand. Most
other mediums stop at
desire.
The best kind Of adj
vertising that a manu-
facturer can do for your
benefit is local newspa-
per advertising. Tell
his statesmen so next
time they come around.
Show them that you
know by experience the
value Of newspaper ad

vertised in a way that
