For this pur pose, the business of Swift & Company is now divided into three classes: Class 1 includes such products ss beef, pork, mutton, oleomargarine and others that are essentially animal products. Profits are limited to 9 per cent of the capita employed in these departments, (including sur plus and borrowed moneyX or not to exceed two and a half cents on each dollar of sales. Class 2 includes the soap, glue, fertiliser, and other departments more or less associated with the meat business. Many of these de partments are in competition with outside businesses whose profits are not limited. Profits in this class are restricted to IS per cent of the capital employed. Class 3 includes outside investments, such as those in stock yards, and the operation of packing plants in foreign countries. Profits in this class are not limited. Total profits for all departments together in 1918 wiH probably be between three and four per cent on an increased volume of sales. The restrictions absolutely guar antee a reasonable relation between live stock prices and wholesale meat prices, because the packer's profit can not possibly average more ' than a fraction of a cent per pound of product Since the profits on meat (Class 1) are running only about 2 cents on each dollar of sales, we have to depend on the profits from soap, glue, fertilizer (Class 2, also limited) and other depart ments, (Class 3) to obtain reasonable earnings on capital. Swift & Company is conducting its business so as to come within these limitations. Swift & Company, U. S A.

I could not believe It unlets I had aeon It through and through. For sev eral week I lived with K; I went all about It and back of It; Inalde and out of It was shown to me until finally I earn to realize: that the Incredi ble wa true.

C Walcott No more graphic description of the ravages of the German soldiery upon the civilian prptlutlon of Invaded countries has been given than Is con. talned In the brief and simple state nmita of F. C. Walcott, now connected with the United States food adminis tration, . who wo BNKlNtnnt to Mr. Hoover while America wa feedlns Helium, I'oliitid and northern France. In one of thette statements Mr. Wal cott say : Even now I find It hard to describe In comprehensible term the mind of j official Germany, which dominate and i shape all German thought and action. Yet It I ft hard, as clear-cut, a real aa any material thing. I aaw It In ! Poland. I aaw the same thing In Bel Slain, I beard of it Id Serbia and Ron mania. For weeks It waa always be-' for me, alwaya the same. Officers talked, freely, fraukly, directly. All the caff officer have the same view. Let me try to rell It, General Ton Erie told me, In Poland, In the midst of a dying nation, Germany la des tined to rule the world, or at least a great part of It Th German people are ao much hnman material for build ing the German state, other people do not count Ml Is for the glory and might of the German state. The live of human being are to be conserved only If It makes for the Stan's ad vancement, tbelr live are to be sacri ficed If It la to the state's advantage. The state is all, the people are noth ing. Conquered people signify little In the German account Life, liberty, happiness, human sentiment, family ' ties, grace and generous Impulse, these ! have no place beside the one concern, the greatness of the German state. ! Starvation must excite no pity ; sym-1 pathy must not be allowed, if It bam-! per the main design of promoting ' Germany's end. "Starvation I here," tald General on Krtes. "Candidly, we would like to see It relieved ; wa fear our soldiers may be unfavorably affected by the things that they see. But since It Is here, starvation must serve our pur pose. So we set It to work for Ger many. By starvation we can accom plish In two or three year In East Poland morn than we have In West Poland, which la East Prussia, In the last hundred years. Wth that In view, we propose to turn this force to our advantage. "This country 1 meant for Ger many," continued the keeper of starv ing Polnnd. "It Is a rich alluvial country which Germany has needed for Bom generations. We propose to remove th able-bodied working Poles from this country. It leaves it open for the Inflow of German working peo ple a fast a we can spare them. They wUl occupy It and work It" Then with a cunning smile, "Can't you ee how It works out? By and by we shall give back freedom to Poland. When that happens Poland will appear automatically as a German province." In Belgium, General von Biasing told me exactly the same thing. "If the relief of Belgium breaks down we can force the Industrial population In to Germany through starvation and colonise other Belgians In Mesopo tamia where we have planned large Irrigation works; Germans will then overrun Belgium. Then when the war Is over and freedom Is given back to Belgium, It will be a German Belgium that Is restored. Belgium will be a German province and we have Ant werp which Is what we are after." That Is not all Bemoving the men, that the land may be vacant for Ger man occupation, that German stock may replace Belgians, Poles, Serbians, Armenians, and now Roumanians, Ger many does more. Women left captive are enslaved, Germany makes all manner of lust Its instrumentality. The other day a friend of mine told me of a man Just returned from north ern France. "I cannot tell you the de tails," he said, "man to man, I don't want to repeat what I heard." Some of the things he did tell shocking mutilation and moral murder. He told of women, by the score, In occupied territory of northern France, prisoned in underground dungeons, tethered for the use of their bodle by officers and men. If this is not a piece of the Prussian system, it Is the logical product of dis regard of the rights of others. m0IUh CIS W - m J f jj p L- . .i. f ,.1 SHARLTBlue Blazes Pawderf AaAETOfiArTIW WM. c.

A large per cent of caes of ulceration of the dleestlve tract are found to be due to dental diseases.

WINTER ATTENTION TO RAMS If Expected to Be Kept in Good, Vigor. ou Condition He Must Be Given. 8ome Grain, v During the . summer months, when the ram Is allowed to run on pasture, he does not need grain; bat In the winter, If you expect to keep him In good, vigorous condition, he must te supplied with grain at least a month before the breeding season. A mixture of two parts onts and one part bran has given unusually good ' results In some of the larger flocks of the West. This ration does not produce fat, but does keep up the vigor of the ram. It is Impossible to suggest the ex act amount to be fed, for this can only be determined by watching the animal and studying his conditions. s yf g, B, POST ITEMS tion with R. E.

Hart picture to be presented by Thomas H. Ince through Altera ft possesses some striking features that differentiate it from the long series of drama that have made the name of Hart famous throughout the world. It is not a Western story, the scenes being laid in the far Canadian Northwest, and there Is no love affair. Only two shots are tired in the entire play and the villian exlta from the world in -the first part of the photoplay. More surprising than all, there is not a single horse shown in the entire pic ture. "Blue Blazes Rawden" will be shown at the Lyric theater, begin ning Friday and Saturday. Mr. Pancake should be congratu lated upon the excellent pictures ha is showing. W. S. B. Next to a ' liberty bond, the best investment you can make is a college education for your son. Mt.
