The meat business is one the largest American industries
Any citizen who would famliarize himself with details
be prepared for large totals.
The report states aggregate profits large pack
ers were $4,000 900 for the three years.
This sum compared with the average annual
profit years war; making appear that
the profit 100000 greater than the profit
This compares hree-year profit with one-year proft-a
manfey unfair method Of comparison is not only mis-
leading but the Federal Trade Commission apparently has made
mistake in the figures themselves

sales of four half billion dollars It means about
three cents each dollar of sales cent

STORAGE AND CARE OF FURS.

Owing to lack Of popular knowl-
edge of the nature Of fur the owners
are subjected to an indiscrete graft
and speculation by those who take
advantage of it. 1t has become a
habit of those who can afford it to
place their furs in various kinds OF
storage plants for summer and hardly
any of these are constructed correct
ly. Alright chests and vaults are
very destructive to fursGand should not
be used. Read what a reputable fur
company OF New York says on the
subject: "-.@ = =
1T is a recognized fact that furs to
be properly cared for during the warm
season must be hung in we'll circu-
lated current Of perfectly dry, cold air,
kept at all times at the same temper
ature-which must be neither too hot
nor cold. If the air is cold, it freezes
the natural oil in the pelt, depriving 1t
of all life and causing it to split and
crack. On the, other hand it the air
is too warm the climatic conditions
which surround fur bearing animals
are not retained and therefore loses
its lustre and becomes dull and mat
