lose about ten per cent, according to
investigations by the United States
department Of agriculture. If dry
hacked broilers are worth 40 cents,
wet-packed broilers are not worth
more than IS cents; and If dry-packed
fowls cost 80 cents, wet-packed ones
should not cost more than ~ cents.
The department specialists point out
that consumers who pay the same
price for dry-packed ones, are losing
money.

been in his usual health until
last Friday when he suffered an
attack of acute Indigestion, from
which he seemed to rally, but
which finally brought his useful
and worthy life TO close.
His physical vigor was remark
able. and with the exception of
several weeks last summer when
he was weakened by the heat, he
walked down town every day,
sometimes twice day, and to
Sunday school and church every
week. He was down town just
few days before his last illness
came on him. His great strength
was shown in his last illness
when he refused to be confined
to his bed. but sat in his arm
chair most of the time, finally
falling into the last long sleep IN
his chair Wednesday morning,
as one who dreams pleasant
dreams before his tireside.
