Quicker maturity of all classes OF
livestock has become a most impoT-
tant factor and its influence is being
felt in production, marketing and fl
nancing Of the industry.
This change in producing methods
so far as the cattle industry is con-
cerned has been brought about BY
several elements. The most impor-
tant of these has been the trend of
consumer demand toward lighter cuts
of beef together with economies eff
fected through a quicker turnover of
beef animals both on the range and
in the feed lot.
With the constant expansion of
metropolitan centers and the chang
ing modes of living accompanying the
creation. of these densely populated
sections it has been aptly said that
the apartment house steak" is revo-
lutionizing the beef industry. The
consumer is demanding lighter cuts
from younger beef animals and, Of
course, from a standpoint of economy
and desirability these cuts excel. They
are palatable, nutritious and there is
the minimum of waste both in pass
ing through the trade channels and Il
preparing and serving as food. To

produce this commodity young ami
mails are taken, many times calves at
weaving time, and placed on intensive
feed.
Another element is that the entire
industrial structure of the country
has changed in the past few years
and with it the type of worker has
changed. The worker has always been
the meat eater, and with the COM
ing of higher wage levels, he is will
ling to pay more for a better quality
of meat and his tastes have become
more discriminating. The industrial
tendency has been toward machines
replacing hand labor. A large major
ity of the workers today r filling
more or less sedentary occupations
as compared with the manual labor
Of the past and consequently they re-
quire a lighter and easily d.
gested food ration which need is
satisfactorily met by the lighter cuts
from younger animals.
Applying this practice, it is pos
sible to finish and market as heavy
a beef animal at from IL to Is months
of age as was possible under the old
practice of carrying steers three,
four and even five years on the
range.
An example of what can be accom-
plished along these lines was shown
at the last international Exposition.
The Grand Champion was a calf 10
months and % days old, weighing 97O
pounds and averaging 3.3 pounds gain
per day for it's entire life. This rec
ord, no doubt, would be impossible IN
feeding commercially but it does
show what may be accomplished.
One of the most important factors
in the new era is the change being
brought about in financing the in
dustry. In days gone by cattle fl
nancing was on a more or less ha
zardous and unsatisfactory basis
: The turnover was so long drawn on
that many times animals were carrie,
until they were four or five years o
I. age. For this reason loans were no
v considered desirable, the operator Q

Quart of Water
Cleans Kidneys
a Little Salts If Your Back
Hurts, or Bladder is
Troubling You

No man or woman can make a mis-
take by flushing the kidneys occasion
ally, says a well-knOwn authority. Eat
ing too much rich food creates acids,
which excite the kidneys. They become
overworked from the strain, get slug
gish and fail to filter the waste and
poisons from the blood. Then we get
sick. Rheumatism, headaches. liver
trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleep
~lessness and urinary disorders often
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys, or your back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, begin
drinking a quart of water each day,
also get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a tablespoon
full in a glass of water before breakfast
and in a few days your kidneys may act
fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia, and has been useC
for years to flush and stimulate the
kidneys; also to help neutralize thu
acids in the system, so they no longe
cause irritation, thus often relieving
bladder weakness.
lad Salts is inexpensive; makes
delightful effervescent lithia-water drinl
which everyone should take now an
then to help keep the kidneys clea'
and active and the blood pure, thereb
often avoiding serious kidney complica
tons.

XII-A Look Forward

Here ends the story. Named by the
legislatures of 10 states as the fact
finder and the fact-distributor regard
ing the need of a ship channel direct
from the Great Lakes to Europe,
the Great Lakes St. Lawrence
Tidewater association has gathered
together and presented to the reader
in this series of articles the most
important facts. 1t has attempted to
tell only that part of the story which
is necessary to an understanding Of
the real situation. Much remains to
be told.
Your association, for example,
could easily expand this series into
twice the present length, merely by
answering the many misstatements
that are circulated regarding the ne
cessity for deep-water transportation
from the mid-continent to other lands
and concerning the practicability of
the route.
For example, it is said by the OPP
position that the st. Lawrence route
is frozen up seven months in the year.
The fact is that it is closed for the
same length of time as the Great
Lakes, and that is a period of ap-
proximately four months, seldom any
more. Much has been made by the
New York opposition of the fact that
ice and fogs are to be found at sea-
sons of The year on the st. Lawrence
route to Europe. The same oppOsi-
ton d)es not mention that the New
York route has the same ice and the
same fOgs to encounter. The mid
continent is warned by the New York
opposition of the great peril to orr
national commerce, and to our nation
al existence, of sailing through the
foreign waters of the st. Lawrence.
This opposition fails to inform its
own people, and those of the mid
continent, that a ship sailing from
the head Of Lake Superior to Buffalo
crosses and ~recrosses the international
border some 20 times, and that as
yet, the stars have not fallen. The
opposition to the St. Lawrence ship
channel warns against the danger of
transferring our port business from
New York to Montreal, but says
nothing about the fact that Cleveland,
Toledo, Buffalo, Detroit, Chicago
Milwaukee, Superior and Duluth arc

both nations new opportunities-bring
new prosperity to their millions Of
people and will make for continued
concord between Canada and the
United States.
The work of building the Great
Lakes-St. Lawrence ship channeI will
require five years. It is a job for
steam hammers, blasting equipment,
and concrete and steel. It will re-
quire the best engineers of the two
nations to direct that job, but inn
proving the St. Lawrence channel is
not so great a task as was the build
ing of the Panama. The preliminary
negotiations can be- completed, the
treaty signed and approved, and the
canal built, all within less than seven
years, and when done, the ocean is
moved westward for all time to come.
More than 100000 people now
living are concerned in whether or
not this accomplishment comes in ou1
time or whether it is indefinitely
postponed. When the 100000 nov

Findings to Jackson Next
Tuesday.

Following a meeting of the State
charities board Thursday, at which
the final report on the Stephenson
prison investigation was framed, il

the report to Governor Jackson
Absolutely no publicity has been
given the affair thus far, but it is
understood that the final report
eventually is to be made public.

the parole plea of D. G. Stephen
son, former Khan dragon now serv-
ing life time for murder.
Oral argument on habeas corpus
proceedings appealed from the La
porte Superior Court are to be heard
before the Supreme Court on the
same date. Should the lower court
be reversed Warden Walter H. DAILY
of the sa'ison would be required to
Arelease Stephenson.
y Error Alleged
This plea is based on error in
taking change of venue from Ma
rion to Hamilton County for the
murder trial, and is also the basis
for the general appeal now pend
ing in the Supreme Court.
The charities board investigation
was launched upon request of the
prison trustees. They asked that
charges made by Stephenson in his
plea for parole be investigated.
These included alleged mistreat-
ment at the prison, which Stephen
son attributed to a plot laid by
Khan Wizard Hiram Evans, Atlanta,
Ca, with Warden DAILY and John
H. Norman, prison trustee.
