URGES BETTER METHODS.
Bureau Finds Marked Variations in
Marketing Meat Animals,

A better adjustment of stock feeding
operations to market conditions, with
the selling of finished animals through
out the year, instead of during a few
months, as at present. is recommended
by the Department of Agriculture.
Marked variations in methods of
marketing meat animals are revealed
by an investigation conducted by the
department.. Three general methods
found are as follows: Shipping to the
large centralized markets. selling to
local butchers and packers and the sale
of farm prepared meats to dealers or
consumers.
The bulk of the animals from the
central states, it was found, is sold

every Indication seems to buttress
when he writes that so far as the con-
gressional ticket in Illinois is con-
cerned the republicans this year are
going to make a fine showing at the
polls. -Four years ago Joseph G. Can

William A. Rodenberg and some other

were not of the old-time kind. This

for their comfort.
There may possibly be one excep-

established general rule. Rodenberg.
the understanding is, is going to stick
pretty close to his district, so far as
his speech-makiHg and his general

does not exist to plague others of his
brethren.
The republicans fully expect to gain

why they are SO cocksure about it is
hard to determine in the face of the
fact that fear besets them that possible
disaster awaits the national ticket in
this state. II Wilson is to carry Ilu-

This last question is not altogether
easy 10 answer excepting by saying
that the women of the state can vote
