Packers' Cost
t
and Profits
How much do you think
it costs
1; To dress beef, cure hides, and
prepare all the numerous by
products ?
2. To cool the meat for two or
0 three days before shipment?
3. To freight it to all parts of
the country in special refrige
rator cars, iced daily ?
4. To carry il .'.: !:::.iivcds of
branch houses, ech with its
refrigerating plant?
5. And to deliver it to the retailer
sweet and fresh in less
than'iwo weeks after dressing?
Swift & Company did all this
for you in 1917 at an expense of
less than 2V2 cents per pound of
beef sold, including an average
profit of Va of a cent a pound.
Figure for yourself how little
effect, this cost and profit had
on prices you paid for beefsteak.
Swift & Company, U.S.A.

There is no deferred classification
in Food Conservation. We arc all in
Class 1, all in camp and ready to go
over the top in conservation.
The Allies keep hammering the
Hun. "Do your bit." Keep right on
taving the wheat, the meat, the sweet,
so he Allies have plenty to eat. And
the kaiser will surely get beat.
There aie twenty-five nations in the
camp of the Allies practically all of
the civilized nations of the woild. It
goes without saying that the four na
tions united under the title of Contial
Powers have forfeited right to be
termed civilised.

No worse condition can In culcd
in the financial world tha.i is i;. s"d
by the hoarding of money. A- the
human body depends for its lif and
strength, upon continued blood cir
culation, so community prosperity,
ability to meet the demands of tho
times, depends upon circulation of
money. Keep it moving. Don't
squander or waste, but buy wisely and
continuously. A single five dollar bill
would pay all expense of community
maintenance if it could be kept mov
ing rapidly enough. Prosperity i.s not
a question of tho amount of money,
its a question of the circulation of
money.
Medical authorities agree that
never since Grecian times have
women worn so heathful a costume
as at present, bull someone is ever
bobbing up with a frantic cry of "im
modesty." If" the" cheap advertising
and the easy dollars were eliminated
from tho program probably there
would be less of this. When the
writer was a youngster there were
societies that lived and fought for
tho adoption of short skiits as a
proper attire for women. Reference to
lateeditions of Webster's Dictionary
show that a half century ago women's
costumes were not only uncomfor
table , unheathftil, unsanitary, but
actually grotesque. Where is the
woman of today who would toVrate
the "Grecian Rend" stylo of dross?
Where one who would go sweeping
the icfuse of the street with long
trailing gown .' Costume is a matter
of ctiolnm; modesty purely a matter
of mode proper dress a question of
geography and climate condit:ons.
Speaking of modesty, Hiram Rowers'
statue of tho "Greek Slave," m the
classic "Venus do Medici," are

Reason for Light Vote

I Captain Wultot H. Aiu'imm.ii. svt-
I "g pioot mnwl a' op Wiir.'ka,
fnrnishe one reason for the com
paratively light vote at the recent
primaries.
His letter which is in pait as fol
lows, is self explanatory:
To Local Hoards: I am in receipt
from several boards of suggestions,
icqiiosts and appeals that I let up on
them a little bit during the next few
(lays, so that they may have some
little opportunity to see a few of their
constituents before the approaching
Mate primaries on August 20. I
sympathize with you but I sec no
chance to accommodate you. Know
thc kind of work that the local boards
of Nebraska have done and are doing,
many of them serving the federal
government without pay except that
derived from their county office, it
seems to me that it would be a very
ungrateful and unpatriotic group of
constituents who would fail to re
nominate a local Loard member of his
(or her) county office because of his
close attention to duty which prevents
him from properly presenting his
claims of lc-elcction.
I wish it were so that I could ic
lca?e for the next few days the board
members who are candidates before

School Will Open Sept. 9th
Never has theie been a ti ie wh mi
ho training of tlv mind ef youth
as so important a at thi- i;
iour. Never were the advanlai" .'. of
mental training so apparent a.i now.
Tho great need of the government
at nils, time is lor trained men ai
woman. Tho unskilled are plentiful.
Tho highly trained aro few.
Tho government is seeking out tlv
college and high school giaduate
for positions of largest rep-pondbilitv.
Ev iy younir man and everv vouim
lady is eager to do tho mo4 imi'o -
tant thing in the serice of tho
country. Everyone old or ei.ng.
owes it to self and to our coun
try to pieparc to fill the most im
pel tant place tho world has to offer.
This preparation can come only thru
training.
The war may last many years yet.
If it does, positions of great respon
sibility must be filled soon by people
who now have no thot of such bur
dens. Dining these times the nation is
conceited with but three things,
food production, war service and ed
ucational training. Tho crisis of food
shortage having apparentlypassed for
tho present, there remains the two
major tasks for our people. With the
opening of school this fall every per
son not engaged in war service should
be in school.
The boy who stays away from
school on the theory that he will be
drafted and hence it will be of no use
to enter school, is making a grave
mistaken In, fact) it is highly prob
able that tho government will send
him to school as soon as ho is called.
Tho more education a man has tho
more useful soldier he will be.
The schools of tho city of Red
Cloud will open Monday, Sept 9. The
new high school building is now com
pleted nnd accepted and there is a
prospect for a larger attendance than
ever tliis year. The work of the high
sclvool is well adapted to tho need of
these strenuous times nnd no boy nnd
girl can afford to let pass tho op
portunity for tho best of training.
I shall bo glad to talk with any who
are considering the questions of ed
ucation for the coming vear.
