Stock Brings Money

Three million dollars an hour, $751;
100000 day, $12o, 100000 a week is
the record breaking sum paid farm
ers of the country in the month of
November, 1918, for live stock used
for meat purposes according to an
estimate made by experts at the In
ternational Live Stock Exposition
and Horse Fair, which closed at Chi
cago Saturday.
Producers received more than $37-
100000 for hogs sold in the Chicago
market last month. This estimate
is based on the arrival of 100000 hogs
at the local stock yards, the minimum
market price of which was fixed by
the government at $17.50 per hun
dred pounds.
Live stock experts declare that the
farmers are receiving more than
twice as much for hogs as before
the war and their shipments are from
10 to Is per cent above normal

New Paper Issued

The Redwood Co. Farmer, publica-
Aion edited by NJ Treu of the Agricul-
tural department of the high school
and Mrs. Adella G. Pratt, superin-
tendent of the Redwood County schools
made it's initial appearance Monday.
The paper is published in the interest
of the farmers and farming interests
of the county and its first issue con-
tains much of vital interest to the
agriculturists of this community. The
paper invites information and discus
sion on all farm and rural school
topics, and it is probable the farmers
well welcome this opportunity for an
exchange of ideas. Advertising ma
ter of interest to farmers is also soil
cited.
1t is the aim of Mr. Treu and Mrs.
Pratt and their associate editors to
make the little paper for the farmers
and their interests, of the farmers
and eventually by the farmers. It's
success depends upon the support,
moral and financial which it gets from
the people of the country. The price
of a years subscription is only
dollar and this sum from
each of the wide-awake families in
the county would guarantee it's sue
cess and continuation School Off
GERS, pupils and teachers will find
much material which they may read
with advantage. The Gazette be-
speaks large and growing circula-
ton for the Farmer.

PROSPEROUS DAYS AHEAD

Five Years Greatest Progress and
Success Nation Ever Had,
Judge Gary Predicts.

New York. Dec 1O.-Judgc F. RI Gary,
Chairman of the United States Steel Cor
poration, and President of the American
Iron and Steel Institute, announc ccd yes
terday at a meeting of 140 leading steel
manufacturers of the country, that the
General Committee of the Institute had
decided to recommend 10 the War In
dustries Board, at conference to be held
INV ashlngtOn tomorrow, that moderate
reduction be made in the scale of maximum
prices for iron and steel products, com
menclng January /, 1919.
Judge Gary outlined his views rs to the
steps that should ne taken to demooilize
the steel industry. The assembled pro-
ducers were reminded that their trade WAS
generally regarded ms the barometer
Of industry" and that as a consequence,
1t behooved them to proceed in CON
servative manner. Judge Gary was liber-
ally applauded when he said:

ion and general welfare, he said.


'1 am assuming you will not favor

'un less, and until, it shall become alb
sofutely necessary, notwithstanding it is
possible the War Industries Board may
decide there ought to be conservative
reductions in the prices OF our commodities
after January I. | am going to surprise
and perhaps disappoint some Of YOU and
no doubt you will have' justification on
account OF your own business situati ons,
but / beg Of you do not hastily reach n
final conclusion in regard to the suggestion
that is to be made.
Judging from the past all of us believe
we Should not commence TO make reduc-
tons at the point of wage rates. Sacrifices
must previously be made by employers,
and our employees must continue to be
treated literally with respect TO their
compensation and general welfare. We
will continue to show to them that it is our
intention to consider their merits, and to
treat them as associates and valuable
assistants in our work We should give
no cause for reasonable complaint or
unfavorabIe criticism.
There is no ground for believing, as
Is sometimes limited, that the workmen
OF this country are desjrous of controlling
the methods of production and distribu-
ton. They know they could not be sue
cessful In the experiment. They under
stand as well as we that II lines of humc n
activity must succeed or fall together,
and that he who apitates for anything
{ lse is disloyal to his country, his friends,
Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1918-12-10

and his home. If the workmen generally
are treated fairly and literally, they will
stand and contend for fair treatment Of
the employer.
Costs Of production probably will
in the course Of time be decreased, though
not to former levels. 1t is to be hoped
no seller of our products will feel inclined
to make prices too high simply because
he may be able to obtain them, or to make
them too low simply because there is need
of ready cash Everything depends upon
the individual producer. II we are fair
and reasonable toward our employees,
our customers, our competitors, and those
who own our properties, we shall not be-.
como demoralized or foolish, and we viii
be entitled to the approval of all other lines
of business and of the people generally.
No one in the long run is benefited by
unreasonably high or low prices.
We are so rich and prosperous and our
resources are SO large that the indulgence
of feelings OF fear or doubt to our finan-
ciaI. commercial or industrial safety and
progress would be wholly unjustifod.
Our prospects are bright, our opportunities
for success are greater than ever before.
Even if there should be some decreases
in volume, we may look forward with
confidence"
