CITY'S BABY NOW
HAS new PARENTS
Police Matron Places Founding
in Local Home After Much
Consideration

Mrs. Margaret Schroeder, police
matron, announced this morning that
she would likely place Rock Islands
baby in a home today.
Since il was learned that a little
girl was found at the Watch Tower
park Sunday afternoon. not only
clothes came to the baby's aid in
large numbers, but petitions for the
adoption of-the child were made to
Mrs. Schroeder.
After much consideration of the
many proposals Mrs. Schroeder decid-
ed upon one local family and was to
have given the baby over to the new
parents today. The parents take the
child with the consideration that they
adopt il through the courts.
The police have failed thus far to
unearth any evidence which will tend
to show who the real parents of the
child are or who placed it in the dress
ing room of the inn.

The rest of Mr. O'Hara's address
was taken up with a discussion of the
work of the Illinois Vice commission
of which he was chairman. which in
vestigated the wages being paid the

He told OF calling AZ big employers of
the city OF Chicago before the commits
sion and of their statement that IS a
week was the minimum wage on
which a girl could live decently in the
city of Chicago and of their confess
sion that from one-half TO three
fourths of their female employees re-
ceived less than that figure He
quoted the testimony of Julius Rosen-
valid. president of Sears. Roebuck &
company, in which he admitted that
while his personal salary was over
s1.OO0,000 a year and that in addition
to this princely sum. the profits of the
big concern reached over $1,000. 900 n
year. 5000 girls in his employ received
less than IS a week, most of them
getting $3.50 a week. Mr.. O'Hara told
of his Investigations in the south and
east and declared that if elected to the
senate he would use his utmost en-
deavor to secure better wages for wo-
men workers.

which would have to be added to these
costs. AS the average shrinkage in
transit of all classes of cattle is about
4 per cent of their live weight, the
value of this loss in weight may be
added to the above costs and the
amount calculated on the hundred
weight basis. These figures give
fair working estimate, as ordinarily
the freight rate will not run much
higher because persons living farther
east will either be shorter distance
from Chicago or will choose some
market still farther east. Those living
farther west will, to a great extent,
patronize the river" stockyards. y
prominent Kansas feeder estimates,
figuring all charges, that it costs so
cents per hundredweight to ship from
the central part of that state to Chi
cago, this charge varying somewhat
with the weight of the cattle.
The difference between the pur-
chase price ard the selling price ~of
an animal is called the margin of
profit. This is usually estimated on
the basis of 100 pounds live weight
Thus a margin of $3.50 means that the
feeder received $3.50 per hundred
weight more IOr InV' aHtIHdiS IMAM IlC
paid for them. The amount of mar
gin is a very important factor in the
profit from feeding steers. The mar
gin required to break even in feeding
operations depends upon a number OF
factors, the principal ones being %
the purchase price, CD the weight OF
the cattle purchased, 90 the value OF
the feeds used, (D the gain in weight
made by the animals, and 90 the
length of the feeding period. The
higher the purchase price. the heavier
the steer when purchased. the cheaper
the feeds. the greater the daily gains,
and shorter the feeding period, the
smaller the margin may be between
the purchase price and the selling
price of the cattle. without loss to the
feeder. With a steer of poor quality
and with high-priced feeds. the margin
must of necessity be great, but with
the best quality of steers and with
cheap feeds the necessary margin may
be very small.
