other town, excepting only Portland
and Salem, each having the same
number as Prinevilie.

this, the oldest and best situated city
in the interior, as well as the road
from Baker to Eugene, through the
John Day valley.

from one point to the next along the
automobile roads, in even miles.

principal points over these roads are
as follows: The Dalles, 147; Port
land, 238; Eugene, 135; Burns, 153;
Lake View, 197; Klamath Falls, 189
Mitchell, 53; and Baker, 221 miles.

MRS SHATTVCK IS XEW
AGENT FOR OREGON LIFE
Mrs. C. L. Shattuck has taken an
agency with the Oregon Life Ins. Co,
and expects to specialize on women's
policies, the Company having decided
recently to write women on all forms
at the same rates as men. The 10,
15. and 20 year endowment policies
of Oregon Life have become popular
with women as their savings fund
and insur.r e combined.
WhyC
bmpare Beef and
Coal Profits?
Swift & Company has frequently stated
that its profit on beef averages only one
, fourth of a cent a pound, and hence has
practically no effect on the price.
Comparison has been made by the Federal
Trade Commission of this profit with the
profit on coal, and it has pointed out that
anthracite coal operators are content with
a profit of 25 cents a ton, whereas the beef
, profit of one-fourth of a cent a pound means
a profit of $5.00 a ton.
The comparison does not point out that
anthracite coal at the seaboard is worth at
wholesale about $7.00 a ton, whereas a ton
of beef of fair quality is worth about
$400.00 wholesale. -
To carry the comparison further, the 25
cent profit on coal is 3Vfc per cent of the
$7.00 value.
The $5.00 profit on beef is only 1 per
cent of the $400.00 value.
The profit has little effect on price in either case,
but has less effect on the price of beef than on the
price of coaL
Coal may be stored in the open air indefinitely;
beef must be kept in expensive coolers because it is
highly perishable and must be refrigerated.
Coal is handled by the carload or ton; beef is deliv
ered to retailers by the pound or hundred weight.
Methods of handling are vastly different Coal is
handled in open cars; beef must be shipped in
refrigerator cars at an even temperature.
Fairness to the public, fairness to Swift &
Company, fairness to the packing industry, demands
that these indisputable facts be considered. It is
Impossible to disprove Swift ft Company's state
ment, that its profits on beef are so small as to have
practically -no effect on prices.
