farmer would his livestock or a poul-
try fancier his chickens. Almost
every day the boys add to the stock
on hand by digging in places where
experience has taught them worms
are certain to be found. After a rain.
before the worms have had time to
get off the cement walks, the boys
gather them by the bucketsful. Satur-
days are devoted to getting out the
Sunday orders Of fishermen.
If one wants ordinary worms he can
get them cheaper than he can "the
big stripped, fat Ones" which the
company advertises as choice and the
ones fish in nearby creeks and rivers
like best. The choice" stock is re-
tailed at ten cents quart more than
the ordinary worms.
The company pays no taxes. no rent,
has bought only an occasional spade
or bucket, and has no financial losses.
However, the president said he is not
certain some OF the worms have not
crawled away.
Come to Indiana to fish," is the
company's motto.

WASHINGTON. Aug. N.-Charg-
Ing tina. the federal trade commission
conducted an unfair" investigation OF
the packing industry. !. c. Thurmond,
Of Oklahoma City, and vice presiden,
OF the Oklahoma Live Stock Produc-
ers association, today told the senate
agricultural committee that cattle
producers OF the southwest are uian-
imously opposed to the Kenyon and
Kendrick bills to license the packing
industry.
"Thc proposed legislation is going
10 crush the producer" Thurmond
said. Bankers don't want to loan
money TO the live stock growers now
with all of this unrest staring them
in the face.
There Is . very pronounced feel
ing " my country that the packers
are being jcbbed, and we are going to
get the worst of it, The producers
will have to stand the burden Of this
proposed law"
Thurmond declared that ne had no
idea That the packers maintained a
monopoly. He said that IL there was
\ monopoly m the packing business
that there are already sufficient laws
10 punish those engaged in the mon
opoly.
"Peopie want the government TO
leave business free and not interfere
with IT," he said,
Sam Davidson Of Fort Worth.
Texas, who said he Is interested in
cattle loan companies, also appeared
10 opposition 10 the proposed bills.
"1he retailer is at fault for the
high price, from my observation
Davidson said. He declared that the
proposed laws would work = great in
Justice to the live stock producers
and that the efficiency Of the packers
would be broken down and that mar
kess would consequently suffer.
