difficult to keep fresh meat on the

meat than he needs in order TO get ria
of it before il spoils. This means Il
waste OF one of the most Important
and expensive articles nf diet. 1t is
possible not only 10 avoid such waste
by canning but also to utilize all the
meat scraps and soup bones.
With a supply OF canned meat on

serve Il meal on short notice. It also
makes possible a moro varied dict.
Meat cannot be successfully canned

FURTHER WEAKNESS in

CHICAGO, Sept 27,--Notwithstand
ing assertions In some quarters that
farm commodities have OF late dropped
TO point probably below the real cost
OF production, the downward slide OF

morning showed declines varying from
Nc TO 3c bushel compared with a
week ago. Oats were unchanged to
Nc lower. In provisions the differ
ences ranged from $l.50 decline to

One Of the main reasons ascribed for
the fresh setback In the value of corn
was the prospect that this year the new
crop would be ready TO market much
earlier than usual.
Oats we're steadied somewhat by q
bulge in foreign exchange rates.
