thorized to telephone the forecasts
to the Cumberland exchange at Bea-
yer Dam, beginning March Z, 1917;
and, as you suggested in your letter
of February 9th, am expecting
you to bring the managers of the
two telephone companies together
and arrange for the transfer of the
forecast to the Mutual. 1t is under
stood by this office that the ex-
changes of both companies at Bea-
yer Dam will give the forecasts and
warnings to their local exchanges
throughout Ohio county free of
charge, where the forecasts are to be
available to all subscribers who call
for them. If used properly these
forecasts and warnings should be an
important asset for the telephone
companies.
Will you please ascertain and re-
port to me the-names Of all places
outside of Beaver Dam whege the
Mutual has exchanges. and the num-
Der of subscribers to each exchange;
also the number of subscribers to
the Mutual exchange in Beaver
Dam? No doubt you can readily OBJ
tain this data from the manager of

IT'S BEST TO LIVE.

There are men who argue that
living is high. but they might try
dying. A living man gets shaved
for 10 cents, but dead one pays
So and never kicks. A good kersey
overcoat costs $25, but wooden one
costs 500. A grave-digger will
plant potatoes for 20 cents an hour,
but for planting you he gets four
times as much. A carriage to the
theater costs So, but everyone to the
cemetery costs IS. A brewery will
fill your hide to bursting for so
cents, but the embalmer gets $3.50
for the same job. Come to think of
it there are lots of things to live for
in this world, despite the high prices
and contrary weather.-[Ex.

FOOD RIOTS As It PERTAINS
TO The POULTRY MARKET

The food riots in the different
cities has had its telling effect on
several different commodities. Chi
cago the wholesale price was reduc-
ed from $3.O5 per bushel to s2.6o
on Irish potatoes; also reduced the
price on onions. Above is not only
true in Chicago, but in all other
large cities. The food riot has de-
moralized the poultry market In
New York City, which market is the
ruling. market of our country on
poultry as well as other commodi-
ties. Whatever is true of the mar
ket conditions in New York City is
true I'm all other cities, as New York
gets all surplus from all the large
cities. When you take into consid-
GRAFTON the great mass of people
that exist in the metropolis city you
can very easily conceive why she is
the index on markets. Her popula-
ton is almost five millions. Week
before last for four days there was
not a chicken sold from the poultry
cars. Slaughtering houses were
practically closed. The market was
reduced from 23c to 24c, on fowls
to 19Rc to zoe. This was a four
cent break. Such breaks has lost
shippers thousands of dollars. On
one car they suffered heavy loss.
What about the shipper who had
from 5 to 10 cars on such
break? One car OH such a break as
above mentioned meant about ST.
600 loss. The shipper who had 10
cars suffered a loss of $4,000. The
writer has talked t. great many
poultry shippers ard they say that
the market conditions were never
worse. They say that they look for
the above extreme market-24c-
to be paid to the shipper again, in
New York, but we have to assume
to great risk. We know not when
New York may have another food
riot. These heavy breaks are caus-
ing shippers to lose confidence in the
markets, the extreme high prices
paid for poultry on this end of the
line. The market in New York was
never known to be higher. These
conditions being true in the face of
food riots has made it a very dan
.gerous proposition for shippers of
all food supplies. More especially
poultry-as poultry is something
that requires a great deal of atten-
ton. 1t is a very expensive COM
modify to carry over. Feed stuff
was never known to be higher. You
are not only out your feed in carry
ing over poultry, but poultry is per-
ishable stock. The fatality is heavy
as we'll as other shrinkage, and adj
ditional expense of paying a man
and board in holding poultry over.
Often it takes two or three weeks
for markets to recover from big
breaks. In this case you would
have a decided reaction of market
to recover cost of shipment.
