High Cattle Prices
Accompany
High Beef Prices

If consumers are to pay less for
beef, livestock raisers naturally will
receive less for cattle.
If farmers are paid more for live
stock, consumers will necessarily pay
more for meat.
Swift & Company pays for cattle
approximately 90 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 10
consumers.
Swift & Company's net profit on
beef during 1917 was only IA of q
cent per pound. On all products, Il
was a little less than four cents on
each dollar of sales. Complete elimi-
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 - the meat
and live stock industry.

Eradication OF
The Tick Ably
Discussed Here
YESTERDAY

A fairly good-sized crowd attended
meeting in the Park yesterday af-
ternoon held in the interest of the
eradication of the tick. and some
splendid addresses on the subject
were made by prominent persons, who
are engaged in this necessary work.
II heartily congratulate the people
in Polk county on your fine roads, or
more properly your boulevard sys-
tem," DR.. W. F. Blackman said at
the beginning Of his address at the
live stock meeting yesterday after
neon.
He was introduced by Mr.. J. M
Keen, county inspector. who has done
such good work in stimulating inter-
est In tick eradication work in this
section Of the county.
Continuing, DR.. Blackman said: 81
know you are going to hurry up and
finish this tick eradication work next
season, for any people who are as
progressive in other lines as you have
proven to be will not allow the pesti-
ferrous cattle ticks to longer prevent
you from raising pure bred and high
grade cattle.
"As member Of the State Live
stock Sanitary Board and as presi-
dent of the Florida State Live Stock
Association, I extend to you the SEN
timents of both organizations urging
that you take advantage Of your OPP
portunity. Polk county now stands
at the head of the list in number of
dipping watts In counties not carry
ing on systematic work There will
be need for quite number OF addi
tional watts in this county to make
them available to all the cattle, but
with continued cooperation Of your
county officials the watts can be put IN
this summer and fall, ready for .
cleanup next season.
"The State of Mississippi has been
released from tick fever quarantine
and the State of Louisiana will be re-
leased on Dec. of this year. Surely
the people of Polk county are as pro-
gressive as those people. You have
demonstrated it in other lines Of ac
tivity and we know you will do your
part in this movement
Mr.. Keen next introduced Or. E
NJ Nighbert, who said in part: ~
have here a map of the United States
to show you just how much territory
is under tick fever quarantine and
the line where we began the work,
which took in all or parts of four
teen States. More than one-half Of
that area has been cleaned up and re-
leased from quarantine. Florida

ChaS. H. Drake
Found Dead In
His Room This
Morning

| Mr.. Charles H. Drake was found
dead in his room this morning at the
home of Mrs. Roundtree on South
Tennessee avenue. The discovery Of
1.-THE body was made by Mrs. Round
tree after Mr.. Drake had failed to
get up at the usual time, and sho
could get no answer when she raped
on the door. On entering the room
Mrs. Roundtree was shocked to find
him dead in his chair, having not I'M
dressed last night. From the condi-
ton of the body, the undertakers
state he probably died before mid
night.
AS soon as the body was discovered,
a physician was called, but there was
nothing to be done, as life had been
extinct for some time. The body was
taken in charge by Gentry Undertak-
ing Co., and is being held awaiting
advices from relatives in the North.
Mr.. Drake came here two years
ago from Friendship, n. Y, and his
wife was here until April, when she
returned home. Besides his wife he
leaves son and daughter the former
being in the army.
Deceased was about 65 years old.
For the past year he has been en-
ployed by Mr.. Stryker on the new
government building and grounds,
He has been in comparatively good
health until about week ago when
he began to complain of not feeling
we'll. He suffered from Bright's dist
ease. What the immediate cause OF
his death was or any circumstances
surrounding his last moments, will al
ways remain a mystery, as no one
knew of his illness until his body
was found.

WHY BALL CAN BE CURVED

Possibility.

II 1t were not for mountains" on q

err pitcher could not get so much
as a sixteenth of an inch curve in it.
II baseball were a perfect sphere
the best pitcher IN the world could not
make it curve hairs breadth other
than the natural curve produced by
gravity The reason the baseball
curves, says the American Boy. is be-
cause it is covered with mountains"
There are great peaks and ridges, val
legs and cliffs. gullies and craters all
over 1t. Magnified 10000 diameters.
all these things may be seen, and they
present a far more rugged landscape
than any mountainous region in the
world. 1t looks like an exaggerated
combination of the Grand Canyon. Bad
Lands, Alps and Rockies.
1t is these Irregularities that make
1t possible for a pitcher to curve his
baseball. OF course he knows how 10

through the air the friction strikes upon
these ragged edges even though they
have TO be magnified 10000 diameters
TO be seen with the naked eye. and
cause such a pressure as to make the
ball leave its natural course.
