Cattle Buying for
Swift & Company
Swift & Company buys more than
9000 head of cattle, on an average,
every market day.
Each one of them is "sized up" by
experts.
Both the packer's buyer and the
commission salesman must judge what
amount of meat each animal will yield,
and how fine it will be, the grading of
the hide, and the quantity and quality
of the fat.
Both must know market conditions
for live stock and meat throughout the
country. The buyer must know where
the different qualities, weights, and
kinds of cattle can be best marketed
as beef.
If the buyer pays more than the
animal is worth, the packer loses money
on it. If he offers less, 'another packer,
or a shipper or feeder, gets it away
from him.
If the seller accepts too little, the live
stock raiser gets less than he is entitled
to. If he holds out for more than it is
worth, he fails to make a sale.
A variation of a few cents in the price
per hundred pounds is a matter of vital
importance to the packer, because it
means the difference between profit
and loss.

Thousands Will Sec Glorious Possi
bilities In Settlement of Avail
able Farm Land In This Coun
try and in Canada.
The war Is over, peace will soon ho
signed, the fighting nations have
sheathed their swords, nnd the day of
reconstruction has come.
What of It?
Hundreds of thousands of men,
taken from the fields of husbandry,
from tho ranks of Inbor, from the four
walls of tho counting house, nnd tho
confines of tho workshop, taken from
them to do their part, their largo part,
In tho prevention of the spoliation of
tho world, nnd In tho meantime re
moved from the gear of common every
dny life, will bo returning, only to And
In many cases old positions filled, tho
machinery with .which they were for-,
merly attached dislocated.
Arc they to become aimless wander
ers, with the ultlmnto possibility of
augmenting nu army of menacing
lonfcrs? If they do It Is because their
ability to nsslst In laying new founda
tions, In building up nntch-requlred
structures. Is underestimated. Men
who fought as they fought, who risked
and faced dangers as they did, are not
of the caliber likely to flinch when it
comes to the restoration of wlmt tho
enemy pnrtlally destroyed, when It
comes to tho reconstruction of the
world, the Ideals of which1 they had In
view when they took part In the great
struggle whoso Ivlnc purposo was to
Lrlng about this reconstruction.
Inured to toll, thoughtless of fatigue,
trained In Initiative and hardened by
their outdoor existence, they will re
turn better and stronger men, boys will
hnve matured and young men will have
developed.
They will decide for themselves
lines of nctlon nnd thought, and what
their futuro should and will he. On
the field of battle they developed
alertness nnd wisdom, and they will
return with both shedding from every
pore.
Action was their watchword, and It
will stand them In good stead now that
the din of the battle no longer rings
In their cars, or the zero hour signals
them to the fray, and It will continue
their entire existence.
Put If they return to find their old
avocations gone, their places filled,
the Institutions with which they were
connected no longer existing, new
walks of life and employment must be
opened to them. It may bo that tho
counting house, the factory, the
workshop will have lost their attrac
tion. The 'returned soldier will look
elsewhere for employment ; within his
rench there Is always die "Forward-to-thc-Lnnd"
necessity. In this lies
the remedy that will not only tnko care
of n multitude of those who may not
lie able to return to their former occu
pations, whoso desires are not to do so,
whose health prohibits them from In
door life or whoso outdoor habits from
the past one, two, three or four years
have given them such a taste and de
Biro for It that confinement would be
unbearable. Farm life will thus ap
peal to them, and the Indications are
that It will bo taken advantage of by
thousands. It means much to them as
well as to tho continent of America
that provides the opportunity to the
world at large, and to the stricken nnd
famished nations of Europe, who, not
only today, but for years to come, will
require the sustenance that can only
largely bo supplied by the United
States and Canada. I5y following the
pursuit of agriculture the returned sol
dier will continue tho cause he so
greatly advanced when fighting on the
Held of battle. Iloth countries have
undeveloped areas jet open to settle
ment. There Is little need here to direct
attention to the wealth that has como
to the farmers of Canada within die
past few years. It Is not only In grain
growing that unqualified and almost
tinequnled success has followed honest
effort, but tho lalsing of horses, cattle,
sheep nnd hogs has been a large source
of profit. These are facts that are
well known to the many friends and
acquaintances of the thousands of
farmers from the United States who
have acquired wealth on tho prali es
of Western Canada. Farms of fiom
one hundred and sixty to six hundred
nnd forty acres of the richest soil may
be secured on reasonable terms, nnd
with an excellent climate, with n
school system equal to any In the
world, and desirable social condltl is,
little else could be asked,
Cnnndlan statesmen are today busily
engaged planning for the future of the
returned soldier with a view to making
hi ji Independent of state help after the
Iu mediate necessary assistance has
In en granted, the main Idea being to
show in the fullest degree the coun
try's appreciation of die services he
has rendered.
But now that the war Is ended, and
the fact apparent that of till avoca
tions the most profitable and Independ
ent Is that of the farmer, there will be
a strong desire to secure farm lands
for cultivation. Cnnada offers the op
portunity to thoso becking, not as spec
ulation hut as production. The de-post
Interest Is taken by Federal i nd
Provincial authoiltles to further tlic
welfare of the farmer nnd secure a
mnxlmum return for Jiis efforts. Largo
sums of money are spent in cdu a
ilonnl and oxpeilmental work. In
gaged on experimental and demon
stration (arms, and in the agricultunil
colleges, are men of the highest te. h
nlcal knowledge and practical evie
rleuco, bouie being professors of in
ternational reputation. The result"
of experiments it ml tests nre free and
available to all. Educational oppor
tunities for fanners are tho concern
of tho government nnd appreciation
Is shown by tho number of fanners
who attend the free courses.
Agriculture In Canada has reached
a high standard, notwithstanding
w lilch lands are low In price.
Thus upon the United States and
Canada for ninny years will rest tho
great burden of feeding 'the world.
With free Interchange of travel, dllll
cultles of crossing and rccrosslng re
moved, Cnnndn may look' for a speedy
resumption of the largo Influx of set
tlers from tho United States which
prevailed previous to the war. Dur
ing the war period there was a dread
of something, no one seemed to know
what.' If the American went to Can
ada ho might bo conscripted, put In
prison, or In his attempt to cross
the border he would meet with Innu
merable dllllcultles, most of which,
of course, was untrue. These un
truths wcro circulated for n purpose
by nn clement, which, It was discov
ered, had nn 'Interest In fomenting
and crentlng trouble nnd distrust be
tween two peoples whoso lnngungo
and alms In life should bo anything
but of an unfriendly character. Tho
draft law of tho United States, adopt
ed for the carrying out of tho high
purposes had In view by the United
States, kept many from going to Can
ada during the period of tho war. The
citizen army of the United States
was quickly mobilized, nnd contained
a largo percentage of tho young men
from the farms. In this way tunny
were presented from going to Can
nda. Thnt is all over now. There are
no real or imaginary restrictions;
thero Is no draft law to- Interfere.
On tho contrary, there Is nn un
fnthomablo depth of good feeling, nnd
the long-existing friendship Is strong
er than ever. This has been brought
about by the knowledge of what has
been done In the recent gteat strug
gle, each vying with the other In
giving credit for what was accom
plished. In thought and feeling, In
language, In alms In life, In work, In
dcslro to build up a new world, there
has been bred a kinship which Is as
Indissoluble us time itself. Advertisement.
SAVING LIGHT THIS WINTER EARTH WILL BE REPLENISHED
Much Can Bo Accomplished If Each
Will Determine to Do His or
Her Part.
Several million Americans, great nnd
small, will be mouthers of a llght-av-lug
crew this winter. Long nights re
quite more lights, nnd more lights re
quire more fuel In tho plants where
coal Is used to produce eloctrclty and
artificial gas. The more fuel we uso
over here, the less can bo used to hun
ker the Bhlps to bring tho hoys home.
The light-saving crew must observe
these, rules:
Turn off every light us soon as It Is
uo longer needed.
Do not go from room to room leav
ing a trail of light behind you.
Keplace all the poor, fuel wasting
lights by elllclent ones.
Use every bit of dnyllght to work
by as late as possible.
Never sacrifice light at n cost to tho
eyes.
Did you ever renllzo thnt thero Is
great difference In electric lights? A
carbon filament light burns with a red
glow, while a tungsten yields a white,
Intcnso light. A 10-wntt tungsten fil
ament burning four hours a dny, uses
nbout 272.0 pounds of coal in a year.
A carbon filament uses twice this
amount.
His Mind Was a Blank.
A young noncommissioned olllccr
was having his first experience In put
ting his men through some of the
drills that ho himself had gone
through often nnd well. When the
time enmo for tho command, "Bat
talion, halt!" tho poor boy's mind was
suddenly a blank. Ills knees shook,
his lips trembled as ho opened his
mouth to say tho Words that would
not come, but his men marched before
him, his superior olllccr was looking
on, nnd nn order must bo given.
Driven thus to desperation, he took n
new grip on life and shouted frantic
ally: "Fellers, whoal"
