One of the world’s greatest benefac- tors was Joseph Lister, the eminent English surgeon who was the first to apply the antiseptic system of sur- gery, of which he was the discoverer and pioneer. Lister died seven years ago. The first great advance In mod- ern surgery was made during the sec ond quarter of the nineteenth century, when Godwin, Mitchell, Jackson, Wood-Bache and Doctor Morton dis- covered and applied anesthesia, which did away with the pain and horrors of the operating room. Since then vast improvements have been made in an- esthesia. It remained for Lister to introduce antiseptic surgery or treat- ment to kill germs in surgical opera- tions and accidental wounds, by which the lives of thousands have been saved, In addition to this Important dis- covery, he made important observa- tions on the early stages of inflamma- tion, the coagulation of the blood and other matters. Lord Lister (he was elevated to the peerage) was surgeon extraordinary to Queen Victoria and later to King Edward. Red Cross Work to Continue. The ambulances of the British Red Cross are to be among the war-work- ers that will never be demobilized. The pick of that great park of ambulances, familiar to every soldier who has land- ed at or left Boulogne, will form the nucleus of a permanent service, in which all England will share. A com- missioner is now at work finding homes for 500 of these ambulances, and Is so mapping out the country that, If possible, no place shall be more than 15 miles from an ambulance, which shall be at the service of any doctor who has a serious case to move to hospital. All these armbulances will be under a central control, which will guarantee the efficiency of the car and the service; and the organization will have the active assistance of those who have learned all there is to learn about the running of ambulances dur- ing the war. The rest of the ambu- lances being over-much war-worn, or not specially well suited, will be added to the enormous total of cars and mo tercycles now being sold or scrapped. “Idaho Gold” costs less than other flour not half as good. 23-t Subscribe for the Chronicle. WOULD LOGALIZING MEAT TRADE PAY? Senator Currle, Stock Raiser of Nebraska, Makes Ex- periment. Meat is high; the packers admit it, though they say that other foods are higher in proportion. The farmer says he is not getting too much for his cat- tle, in fact not enough, he says. How about numerous local slaughtering plants scattered throughout the com- munities of our country, or a more di- rect-from-farmer-to-consumer relation- ship? There Is almost a sentimental attrac- tiveness about the thought, like dreams of one's boyhood home, It. looks so simple, Indeed, it is simple after a fashion, and is the way most meat was handled before the industry grew to national and international propor- tions, But would it pay? Tried to Bulld Up Local Market. Experimentation and testing is doubtless the best teacher. And in- quiring minds have not hesitated to dig into the matter. Senator F, M. Currie of Broken Bow, Neb., himself a stock raiser, relates a bit of expe rience of his own along this line. He’ tried for years, he tells us, to establish a market for fat cattle with local butchers, invariably finding that he could not meet the price made to them by the packers, “In other words,” he says, “the pack- ers could pay us more for our cattle on foot, and sell the product to our local butchers for less money than they (the butchers) could pay us for our cattle and slaughter the beef them- selves.” During the fore part of the present year he carried his inquiry further, He shipped two catloads of cows to Omaha, and they were sold to Armour and Company for $7.90 per hundred- weight. Among these was one cow which he wished to have himself for beef. This cow weighed 840 pounds and therefore brought him $66.36. The animal was tagged and the’ identical carcass was shipped to him by ex- press to Thedford, Neb., and charged to him at the prevailing whole- Sale price of such meat on that day in Kansas City, Omaha and Minneapolis. The carcass included carrying charges of about $6.00, cost him $60.11, or $6.25 less than he sold the animal for in Omaha, What Cow Would Cost Consumer. “Now,” continues the Senator, “sup- pose a consumer in Omaha had or- dered this meat direct from me, and I had slaughtered the beef at the ranch and sent the meat direct to the con sumer, Taking as a basis the price recetved for this cow in Omaha, $66.36, less the freight of 17% cents per hun- dred, it would make the cow worth on the ranch $65.00.” To this $65.00 he adds $3.00 for slaughtering at home and $6.00 for ex- press from Thedford to Omaha, and he deducts $7.00 credit for the hide, According to these figures the dressed carcass of his cow would be worth $67.00 in Omaha, as against the packers’ price of approximately $54.00 (which {s derived by deducting the ex- press charges to Thedford, $6.00, from the price the carcass was sold to him, $60.11). Cheaper te Buy Than Kill. “after thorough investigation,” the Senator says, “I am convinced that it does not pay for us to slaughter our own meat at the ranch; that we would better ship our cattle to Omaha, and buy our beef from the packer. I have been engaged in the cattle producing business all my life; there is no particular reason why I should be friendly to the packers, but I am thoroughly convinced I am re- ceiving, and always have received more for my cattle on foot, than if I had been able to sell direct to the con- sumer, and consequently the consumer has been able to buy my product for less money through the packer than under any other system which is known to business up to the present time.” SENATOR KENYON'S CONTRAST- ING VIEWS. Just what is the purpose of the Kenyon bill now in hearing at Wash- ington would be hard to deduce from Senator Kenyon’s own statements. In the bill itself the purpose is set forth as follows: “To stimulate the pro- duction, sale, and distribution of live stock and live stock products, and for other purposes.” This stimulation of live st0ck production may bd well taken as a bid to the consumer to hope for lower meat prices. But he has a different thought to present to producers. In a letter ad- dressed recently to the Wallace Farm- er he says: “I do not believe myself that the situation as to restricted consumption is going to be changed very much, and there will be the neces- sity of less production.” Of course less production would supposedly mean higher prices for live stock, but also higher prices for meat. Are either the general public or the farmer going to be fooled by this method of playing up the one against the other? It is not likely. Farmers and consumers are both coming to the realization that hampering the pack- ers ig not going to bring higher prices for live stock nor lower prices fer went, but quite the opposite, —
