Rates, howevtr, are not the cow man's only trials of transportation Perhaps he speaks for ars three months ahead, and drives his 2,000 or 3,000 catlle to the freight yards at the time agreed upon only to find an emp ty track. At once begins the expense of buying fodder for the herd, and the sitting around watching them eat up the profits. When the cars finally ar rive, if the numbeV is short, the ani mals have to be crowded in with the I almost c:rtain risk of more loss. Then f perhaps tire cars crawl over tne coun I trv at the rate of 12 miles an hour, an i this inefficiency costs the cowman sun more. In fodder, and in the shrinkage and deaths of the Imprisoned creatures suffering" from crowding, from long standing, and from thirst. ; To prevent this needless waste, the association Is urging the Interstate state commerce commission to pre scribe that, speed limit when necessary, to secure reasonable service, and the proper treatment of live stock.

If he follows this resolution he never will be out of a job and will always have the confi dence of his employer. Ptrhaps he may not be as ewif. or as thoroughly competent as some other workman who lacks that essential of always , showing up . on duty, yet the eteady boy will always be in demand. while the swifter workman will be hanging aroun dthe, soup shops and free lunches. Nothing can be a better guide to fol low than faithfulness In your work. It means everything to he establlsh ' ment to know that such a man will be there on time and there is no need to worry about him. The time is not far distant when men who disregard the necessity of being punctual will not be wanted. It is wholly their own fault and if the time does come when grumble for lack of work th?y deserve no sympathy whatever, : s A PKOFESSIOXAL DUlEtTOBY. A "t-sr wwv-" 0T BEXEFITTED BY HIGH PRICE ;-. . "' MEAT. The government returns showthat, although there has been a marked In crease In the price of farm tu gener ally, Uils has not been true of cattle, especially the unfed cattle of the rang es, eays Inls H. Weed In an article In "Success' Magazine." The consumers cannot lay the high price of meat to tire cowman. It's the deal is and the railroad between us and the cowman who bring up the prce. Some years! even when beet has been very in the retail market, the cattleman, after he has subtracted the carrying cost from the sale price of his animals, has bfen receiving a price below par. Although this rate robbery was enormously un just, and . although the capital repre sented in the live stock industry Is .qual to 73 pr cent of the par value of the stocks and bonds issued by our railways, the transportation corpora t ions were o gigantic, and the Indl vldual cattleman so small "by compari son, even though he might be a "cat tle king," that he couldn't help hlm.'t elf. Every year he had to hold out Garfish 8kin. A woman looking over costly jewel cases in one of the mowt expensive of the uptown shops the other day was struck with the beautiful.
