BEEF AND BACON
 AT COST PRICES City Is to Sell $25, ,000 Worth of Surplus Government
 Supplies

Information was received yesterday by Ed Mckinley, city purchasing agent that the carload of government meat ordered for public sale by the City Com mission has been shipped from the quar- termaster depot at Atlanta.
 The shipment should be received in Birmingham by Tuesday and be ready for sale from the loppy of the city hall about Wednesday. The invoice shows that about s25, 900 worth of bacon and beef was shipped. It is all canned goods left as a surplus in government ware houses following the war.
 The classification of the goods is as follows: 5000 cans of bacon, 1000 one pound cans and 2.0oo two-pound cans of corned beef, 15,00O one-pound cans and hash, 30,00O one-pound cans and 4.0oO two-pound cans of roast beef.
 Upon it's arrival the meat will be of- fered for sale from the lobby of the city hall at government prices plus the freight rates. MT Mckinley says that the freight rates will amount to about one or two cents per can.
 The city has sold several carloads of government foodstuffs in the past. All of the sales have been very successful. Provided the supply being received this week is quickly disposed of, the city will likely make other orders.
