Buyers Represent Many Firms.

Many think that these cattle are all
purchased by the big packers, which
is far from being the case. Besides
the buyers for the big packers there
are always in the Chicago yards from
hundred to a hundred and fifty other
buyers on the scene, many of them
representing firms that are not located
near the stock yards or even in the
same city. All told, the large pack
ers do only Al per cent Of the meat
animal slaughtering Of the entire COM
try.
The penalty which awaits the buyer
who will not bid up to true values is
that the other buyers take the cattle
away from him and his firm will be
without its requirements. On the 9TH
e. hand the commission men cannot
stick it out for an exorbitant price !;
for the buyers would cut down on the
amounts of their purchases. There
are some people who will buy meat
q. any price, but the majority Of peo-
pie reduce their meat purchases pre-
cisely us the prices mount upward.
The buyers in the stock yards reflect
this attitude of the general public al
most as accurately as thermometer
indicates the temperature.
The Arena Of Supply and Demand.
In other words, the stock yards are
the meeting places Of two tremendous
powers of the economic world,-Sup-
ply and Demand. Any one who WIS.,
Its one Of these places, even as the
most casual observer. and watches
what occurs there, will give up any
Illusion he may have about monopoly
or control. Too many buyers and SELL
ers are involved, and judging the
value Of an individual steer or pen
full! Of steers is altogether too compli-
Gated a matter to cover by any sort
OF agreement in advance.
The Kenyon bill would make it ille-
gal for any packers to have financial
holdings in stock yards corporations.
Common sense rightly asks. "Why?"
How such holdings, which, where they
exist are nothing more than financial
backing of worthy enterprise, can
control the men in the pens who are
hired to use their judgment, is too
, deep to be seen at glance. The ad-
vocates Of the bill should be forced to
explain. And how lack of such hold
ings would prevent control or monop-
oily, If such things were possible, is an
other thing which the proponents Of
the bill should be able to elucidate.
