I am the foundation of the greatest industry on earth.
I have made scores Of milionaires and am working overtime at it.
I have returned huge dividends to every packer that had the fore

would like to see conditions changed, not wholly but in part.
Besides raising me for what I bring on the hoof, I want every
farmer and stock grower to participate also in the profit I bring to
the packing plant.
I have often wondered why this was not done long ago, but there
never was a better time than now to start. The day of the indie
pendent packer is here.
The demand for every part Of me-from my head to my hoofs-s
bigger TODAY than ever before. I am one Of the essentials that the
whole world must have and are calling for.
have not always made money for every farmer and stock grower
that has raised me and conditioned me, but / have returned swol-

I am getting tired of being monopolized. The public, I think is
getting tired Of it too, 50 I recommend the erection of more indie

country are very prosperous and their owners and stockholders
have become very rich, but we need more Of them.

CHAPTER XXI.

They found the job. 1t needed an
apprenticeship of only six weeks. dur
ing which period George WIS to re-
ceIve fifteen dollars a week; after
that he would get twenty-eight- This
settled the apartment question. and
Fanny was presently established In a
greater contentment than she had
known for a long time.
On Sunday mornings Fanny went to
church and George took long walks.
He explored the new city. and found
it hideous. especially in the early
spring. before the leaves Of the shade
trees were out.
One of his Sunday walks, that
spring. he made into a sour pilgrimage.
1t was misty morning Of belated
snow slush, and suited him to 4 per-
fection of miserableness, as he stood
before the great dripping department
store which now occupied the big plot
of ground where once had stood both
the ANDERSON hotel and the ANDERSON
opera house. From there he drifted to
the old ANDERSON block" but this was
only a shadow. The old structure had
not been replaced, but cavernous en-
tryway for trucks had been torn in its
front. and upon the cornlce. where the
old separate metal letters had spelt
ANDERSON block" there was long
bill board sign: "Doogan Storage"
To spare himself, he went out Ma
tional avenue and saw the piles of
slush-covered wreckage where the
mad been. and where the Majors ill.,
fated FIVE new" houses had stood; for
these were down, too. to make room
for the great tenement already shaped
in unending lines of foundation.
He turned away from the devastated
site, thinking bitterly that the only
ANDERSON mark still left upon the
town was the name of the boulevard
Anderson boulevard. But he had reck-
oned without the city council of the
new order. and by an unpleasant coin
cidence, while the thought was still
In his mind, his eyes fell upon a metal
Oblong sign upon the lamp-post at the
corner. There were two Of these little
signs upon the lamp-post. at an obtuse
angle to each other, one to give pass
ersby the name Of National avenue,
the other to acquaint them with Am
bersOn boulevard. But the one upon
which should have been stenciled

words tenth street"
George stared at 1t hard. Then he
walked quickly along the boulevard to
the next corner and looked at the little
sign there. Tenth street"

stood unheeding, staring at the little

laughter; a forked vein in his fore
head became more visible and his eyes
