cattle SHIPPED on state cer:iticates
from beng urloa'led in clean pens.
Nat Parks Of San Antonio, live
! stock agent Of 'he s. p, Friday com
pile a complete report giving de-
tailed account of the matter FOR the
legal representatives of the road ut
Houston through whom the petition
for an injunction will have to be filed,
The order issued by DIR. Grafke. Mr..
Parks said. is based on a technicality
and takes the authority TO pass on
shipment of Texas cattle within the
state out of the hands of state in
spectors. placing it in the hands OF
federal inspectors.
The cattle. according 10 Mr.. Parks.
were dipped. before they left Navasota
and passed on by state inspector Mr..
Bedford. it is said. had buyers for the
cattle here and shipped them over the
Southern Pacific with the understand
ing that they would be unloaded in the
clean pens. Because they came from a
ouarantined territory and had not been
inspected by a federal inspector. un-
der the ruling of DR.. Grafke. they had
to be unloaded in the infested pens for
dipping before they could be sold. As
they had just been dipped, thiS would
have meant holding them there seven
days. Mr.. Bedford refused to do this.
saying that the cost of feeding would
have been more. than his profit. In
stead of unloading he shipped them TO
CRYSTAL City to be nut in pasturage.
If he enters suit against the rail-
road comnanv. Mr.. Parks said FRIDAY.
the Stock Yard Company will be
made a party to the suit as they were
under contract with the railroad TO re-
ceive cattle shipped under the condi-
tons which were met by the Bedford
cattle.
Pointing out the inconsistency OF
the ruling, Mr.. Parks said that IL the
same cattle were shipped west and I'M
londed outside Of the quarantincd ter
ritory. IL would be possible 10 re-
turn them here immediately rndcr the
same state shipping certificate A and
unload them in the native mems.

wonderfully to the appearance of the
interior of the store.
According to MIR. Rosenon the
Piggy Wiggly Stores, incorporated
plans to have at least 30 OF these
variety stores in the United States by
the end of 1928. More than twenty
five leases have been signed and 1t Is
announced that that same number oil
variety stores will be opened during
the next four months. The next stores
the company will open will be in
Dallas, Waco, Little Rock, Ark, New
York, Macon, Ca, and knoxville
Tenn.
Prominent Employees There.
Among the spectators at the open
ing were $. A. Bird and wife from
Dallas. who manages the Piggy
Wiggly grocery stores there. and H.
II. Long, superintendent of conStruc-
ton. J. Posvar. manager of the local
store. who formerly was connected
with the kress stores. arrived three
days ago. A. II. O'Toole, assistant
manager Of the local store. was also
present. +. A. Basse, district man
ager and a director of the PIGGY
Wiggly Stores, incorporated was pres
cnt at the formal opening and ex-
pressed his satisfaction in having the
large crowd.
Probably the most distinctive fea'
lures of the Piggy Wiggly variety
store is its prices. says Mr.. Rosenon
1t has been proven that a customer
can save from IL TO Is per cent when
buying in this store. he said. The
reason for this is, Mr.. ltosenon says
is that the stores overhead is com
paratively small in that only few
clerks are employed. Only few arc
needed. he says, as the stock is SO
arranged that customers may easily
serve themselves.
Everything But Groceries.
The variety store is operated on the
same plan as the grocery stores, the
only difference being that in the
variety store everything but grocer
les is sold. There is wearing apparel
cooking utensils, eatables, notions
toilet articles, toys and numerous
other articles. The basement of the
building is crammed with q large
supply stock which employees have
been arranging for weeks.
