High Cattle Prices
Accompany
High Beef I rices

In consumers are to pay less for
beet, livestock raisers naturally will
receive less for cattle.
Il farmers are paid moro for live
stock, consumers will necessarily pay
more for meat.
Swift & Company pays for cattle
approximately 80 per cent of the price
received for beef and by-products.
The remaining 10 per cent pays for
dressing, freight to market, operation
OF distributing houses, and in most
cases, delivery to the retailer. Net
profits also have to come out of this
10 per cent.
This margin cannot be squeezed
arbitrarily without danger of Gripping
the only effective means of performing
the complex service of converting
cattle into meat and distributing this
meat to the fighting forces and to
consumers.
Swift & Company's net profit on
beef during 1917 was only Ia of a
cent per pound On all products, it
was a little less than four cents on
each dollar of sales. Complete elirni-
nation of these profits would not affect
appreciably retail prices Of meat, or
farm prices Of live stock.
Swift & Company will be glad to
cooperate in devising methods that
Will improve conditions in the meat
and live stock industry.

Bradstreet s Review

New York, November 2s.-.Bradstreet tomorrow will say:
 As the country shifts from a war to peace basis. irregularity in move ments. uncertainty about prices, and cancellations. the latter mostly of war wanted products. are strongly outlined. these manifestations being aecompan- jed by conservative optimism as to the future and readiness to believe that the country will respond to readjust- ment with minimum of shock
 Meantime, however, new buying in volume is in abeyance, the general disposition is to mark time pending the opening of clearly defined routes, and in a word, there is considerable looking about to see what the dispen- sations of peace will bring forth to fill the gaps caused by the elimination os war work-an aspect that prominently stands out in the iron and steel trades. But with the lifting of the numerous restrictions. and the partial passing of governmental priorities, many of the arts of peace breathe easier. and the abrogation of these disadvantages tends to produce a degree of what might be termed cheerful normality

tween these countries The letter
which is signed by DR.. William T.
Hornaday, reads:
F Reports are rife that with the
ending of the war there IS to. be an
attempt to- force upof our American
youth the language of the people
whose. hands are stained with the
blood of their fathers and brothers,
The German language has been used
as a weapon directed at the heart of
America by German propagandists.
1t is the opinion of many of our
prominent educators that German is
rot an essential in any course of
study, and it is to be hoped that
our American youth will not permit
its being forced upon them for any
reason whatsoever. The next five
years will witness a capitalization
of educational opinion and upon that
