IS To the , tditor of the Observer, Dear Sir: THe' climax .of absurdity has been I reached in th,o lengthy article headed j"l''armer .Look Into Meat Cost" in ,the Obsci-vcr under date of March l(i, Wo do not iiuostion .Mr. Slackland's .knowledge of the cherry business, bui his efforts itt dirn'redit established I meat concerns. 'whose' reputation for , honesty and siU-iie-dealing is, to nay I the leust, cqunl to his own, shows him to be cither grossly ignorant of I the whole matter or willfully and maliciously making false rcprescnta I lions. , I It may ulso "be noted that Mr. .Stackland kept tho hind quarters of tnc animil, in which the choice cuts ur"c found, for his own use. This is :ulsrf characteristic. Mr. Stuckland's statements relative I to tho weights of the unimal alive and IdrcHsed ura so imi.ossiblo as to need no refutation iimnnir nomdit u-hn h-ive given the mutter even a niomcnl's I 1U u. it.iM.U.-,,li. Mr. Stneklund sold the front t-uar-ters for 1 2c n pound. The meat mar kets of La Grande have been selling front quarters of beef regularly dur- jing the past three months for from nino to 10 cents a pound. These front .quarters were not from fairly fat meat either, but from animals fully ruttcnod and made entirely fit for human consumption. Mr. Stackland evidently "hooked" his friends for three cents a pound for inferior beef tan you beat it? I The assumption that the public i being deliberately defrauded by the retail meat markets is false and un fair. We nre mnintnmiiif- 11 hip-h jcluss of service, supplying the public continuously with just the kind of meats It demands, operating under the highest rent cost ever known and still piying the high scale of wages iwnicn sitiiieu inner iicmaniis. 11 tTie IrtllMi. Uriah,, tn nn M Ul ...b ! ,1,1 12c u pound for meats which they can buy from us for 10c, that is the pub lie's loss and Mr. Stacklnnd's gain and we do not wish to interfere. We do not believe, however, that the thinking people of this valley, espec ially those who, like ourselves, nre faced with the problem of making a fuir And just return on our business investments, will be deceived by Mr. Stacklnnd's propaganda, which, in tentionally or otherwise, is false and misleading. Any honest investigation of the meat business in I,n Gr.mdc can eas ily be shown that our prices arc just and arc fully in line with all other business as conducted under present conditions. . Producers of good quality beef cat tlo in the valley receive us high as (i 3-4 cents per pound and the pres ent time for cattle, and not from ;i5 to $45 per head, as stated by Mr. Stackland. Mr. Stackland is evidently unwilling to apply the same standard of values to quality in beef that he docs in cherries, otherwise he would concede to producers of inferior chei'ics u right to receive a price equal to -that received for the finest Cove product. Would he grant such a thing? Cer tainly not! Yet, he loudly complains bemuse he is not offered a high price for an animal not properly fattened and unfit for market. Many of Mr. Slackland's state ments are Impossible of verification anil the whole article shows conclus ively that ho has given his friends a "hum steer" literally arid is trying to prejudice tho producer of the valley against" the middlemen, who hit1 en deavoring to be fair to both producer and consumer alike Very sincerely, 11.

TIk woman who neglects ktr kB- or kr childrca for a club would stick to her duty well unyway, th club would not be to blame. The woman who runs to meetings and tells other peo ple how to take core of their children and who neglects ler own, will ue found out soon. It isn't the club that is to bl ime she'd neglect the home unyway, 1 know what a boon the club .is to the young Kitchen Club member for I was one of these fJr a good many years. On the great club day I got my work done u .little quicker than usual, prepared all the vegetables ear ly in the morning, mide the salad dressing, the soup and the dessert in the morning and arranged fur sonic one to tako care of the two kiddies until I should .return. What I did, scores of others do. The Club, like any other diversion, must not be over done, lut it certainly is a good thi'i". The parent-teacher circle is another splendid institution, liut no woman should neglect her babies for the best club or society in the world. It's a joy to tak-.' e-ire of the little children, to wash for them day after day, to cure for them through meus Iob, mumps and whooping cough, to do the baking, the sewing and the general housework and it gels results, but, oh, my dear man, it does get .monotonous, and, to those who do all these things, the occasional club meeting is so refreshing. The women of La Grande who made tho delicious breakfast served last year when we were enroute to tne state convention at Enterprise, are regarded as splendid clubwomen, liut they certainly must be kitchen club bers of the very greatest ability, too. Never have I tasted such tooti as they served that morning. I don't know the names of the women who i.iatle that pincapplc-peach-npiicot-orange mixture, or of those who fried that crisp bacon and the eggs done just to u turn, but they have my unbounded gratitude and appreciation they are the best of all clubwomen kitchen clubbers. ' I have' spoken at length on the young club Women, but want also to soy that the federated club is of great help to the older women those who hnve reared their families and who are lonely and in need of some spec ial occupation. It is the busy womun who can accomplish the most and the older clubwoman can give- time to serve on committees, to wait on the city council and get tho parks and- playgrounds and the child welfare clinics and bureaus started. The next i.isue of the llullelin will stress child welfare and the care of the home. I thank you.
