Bye and Bye,

QUIT Picking Pork. D, Gar
land. proprietor of the City Meat
Market, caused to be printed and
circulated the fore part OF the
week, posters to the effect tnat
he had decided to 90 out Of the
pork packing business and VIII
hereafter only handle pork In
Quantities sufficient to take care
of the retail trade. We are eX-
seedlngly sorry to learn of tas
decision of Mr.. Garland Is as We
feel that it will be a detriment to
the farmer. whose local market
will be altnost destroyed for this
part Of his produce. When Mr..
Garland took over the Market
some two years ago, the farmer
found it exceedingly dlihcult to
dispose OF the then small prOduc
ton Of pork and Mr.. Garland,
seeing the need and bsnents OF a
packing establishment, entered
into that branch Of the butcher
business. The establishment Of
packing plant here created
greater demand for pork at high
" advanced prices and the farm
ers, always ready to supply a
market, at once proceeded to
raise more pork. The establish
ment of the packing plant here
was the direct means OF creating
larger market and putting more
money into circulation. A pork
now days brings tho raiser IL
round $50. 90 head and the loss
Of this market will be keenly felt
by the producers.
