Commercial slaughter hounea were
In operation bffore 1800. Shortly i
arter the civil war came were iraueu ,
out of Texas to railroad points and
held at the larger Industrial centers
waiting killing by the local butch
ers. The Atlantic coast seiners, ai
this time, through the farmers and
planters killed and packed their own
produce In a crude way and took It
to market. In those days It was the
practice to take slock to market and
have It killed by the local butchers
or men who made a specialty of that
business In exchange for supplies.
As the Ohio valley settled the pro
duction of corn greatly stimulated
the live stock Industry. The first
stock was driven over the Appalach
ian mountains to the eastern cities,
but soon meat packing plants were
established on the prairies and by
1820 Cincinnati surpassed Boston
and othereastern cities as a market
for cattle and hogs. I 1850 Ohio
and Indiana packed over one-half
the provisions In the country.
The result of this early activity
has resulted In Nebraska shipping to
day to the following points: Denver,
Kansas City, St. Joseph, Chicago,
Omaha and Sioux City.
In 1868 refrigerator cars revolu
tionized the cattle Industry. Rapid
settlement of the west at the close
of the civil war supplied ample live
stock for the meat packing Industry.
Today there are ' fifty centralized
stock yards. A much larger num
ber of animals pass through these
markets each year than are slaugh
tered by packing houses because
many of them are bought as feeders
and stockers.
While there are fifty centralized
markets for live stock more than 69
per cent of the total number of ani
mals' so marketed pass through the
following twelve markets: Chicago,
Omaha, Kansas City, St. Louis, St.
Joseph, St. Paui, New York, Fort
Wortk. Sioux City, Oklahoma City,
Denver and Wichita.
Of the total stock yard receipts
more than 52 per cent of the cattle,
43 per cent of the hogs and 61 per
cent of the sheep are received at the
Chicago, Omaha, Kansas City and
St." Louis markets. Chicago alone re
ceived 19 per cent of the cattle, 21
per cent of the hogs and 22 per cent
of the sheep which pass through the
fifty centralized stock yard markets.
An Intensive study of centralized
markets indicates the receipts come
from the territory immediately sur
rounding it! A study of the map

Ralph W. Ransom was the first
ing office by signing up for a course
to start the week off at the recrult
in wireless telegraphy at the signal
corps school at Camp Vail, N. J.
Ransome has had some experience in
the electrical world, but had not
settled on any one branch. He ex
pects to start bis theoretical work
about the first of the month and by
the Fourth of July he will have fin
ished his laboratory training and will
begin the practical end of the busi
ness, lie will receive in detail the
construction, maintenance and oper
ation of the wireless Instruments as
well as a course in typing which will
enable him to receive on the
machine. The opportunity of enroll
ing in the signal corps school will
be closed about the fifteenth of De
cember, and not wishing to let this
slip by, Ransom finished his business
in Greeley hastily In order that he
would be sure of being admitted.
The recruiting office is in re
ceipt of a bulleting from Washing
ton stating that 253 railroad men
are needed in France to operate ti e
roads over there. The bulletin
states that a man wishing to be sent
t othis branch must produce con
clusive evidence that he is qualified
as one of the following: Dispatcher,
locomotive engineer, conductor, yard-
master, telegraph operator, boiler-
maker, pipe man, switchman, round
house foreman, brakeman, station
agent, machinist or tower man. Ap
plicants accepted under this author
ity will be sent directly to Camp A.
A. Humphrey, Va. It should be gen
erally understood that former mil
ltary service will not be required,
thus giving a man so qualified an op
portunity to see France for one year
and still work at his own trade. In
formation may be had by applying
at the recruiting office at 101 Box
Butte avenue.

"I can give you much better serv
ice at the same price." (The better
service should be worth more
money.)
"Smith is doing you a mighty
poor Job; I can do it better."
"Jones can't handle that Job;
you'd better give it to me."
"My price is $5.00 cheaper than
Compets." (He gets the Job and
substitutes an Inferior grade of
stock.)
"I used to be foreman at Blank's.
I am the man who was responsible
for you getting good work and serv
ice; besides I can make you a better
price."
How much better Is the rating of
he who has really something to sell.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
Weak Links
in a Strong Chain
That just what imitation parts are when they become a part of your car.
They look well enough, but the metal isn't there the strong, durable Vana
dium steel that goes into the Ford chnssis and every Ford part. Ford parts
are specially case and heat-treated, each according to its use. Some require a
hard, flint-like wearing Burfacc, others need rcsilcncy, and some need just
"toughness."
, Ford metallurgists have been studying those problems for sixteen years
and know just ow each unit should be made to endure a maximum of wear
and tear. They know that best results can be obtained only by the use of
special formulas for different parts, and that honest Ford parts wear from
thirty-five to one hundred per'cent longer than counterfeits.
Ve carry complete assortments of genuine Ford parts for both passenger
cars and trucks. And our garages are equipped to give careful, prompt Ford
RPrvice from minor adjustments to complete overhauls. Drive in, it s better
to be safe than sorry. Come to the Authorized Ford dealers for service.
