Only About Half the Steer is Beef Live Weight 1200 pounds Dressed Weight 672 pounds of Beef 56% WhenSwift & Company buys a steer weighing 1200 pounds, only about 672 pounds goes tomarket as beef; the other 528 pounds consists of hide, fats, other by-products, and waste. When the packer pays 15 cents a pound for a steer, he sells the meat to the retailer for about 24 cents. But the packer gets only about 6 cents a pecund for the other 528 pounds. { This means that the packer gets about 16 cents a pound for all the pro- ducts from a steer for which he pays 15 cents. The difference of 1 cent per pound covers the cost of dressing, preparation of by-products, freight on beef to all parts of the United States, operation of distributing houses, and leaves a net profit of only about /; of a cent per pound on all dressed beef sold. Large volume of business and utiliza- tion of parts that were formerly wast- ed, make this achievement possible. Year Book of interestingand instructive facts sent on request.

Red Cross workers were active in many parts of Killingly Monday and turned in some fine subscriptions af- ter the day’s work. Private Stanley Regis, who is sta- tioned at one of the island forts be- low New London, has been spending a few days at his home in Danielson. Here's some good news for the chil- aren, grown-ups not being supposed to read this item—there's a circus coming to Danielson! Chairman Committee of W. 8. 8. ‘Warden F. E. Cunneen has been named as chairman of the committee on War Savings Stamps, the Daniel- son district, including the towns of Killingly, Brooklyn, Plainfield, Sterl- ing and Canterbury. From a troop train that ran through Danielson Monday morning. Bernard Casey, who recently entered the ser- vice, dropped off postcards to rela- tives and friends here. Swatters Help Swat Huns. “I bought these fly-swatters to give away; but I have changed my mind.” So reads a sign in the window of a Danielson store, and the proprietor sets forth that the swatters are now ten cents each and that the dimes go to the Red Cross fund being raised here this week. The swatters are sell- ing rapidly. Prohibition the lssue. Underneath the surface, notwith- standing all the hustle and bustle of special war work, there are men in this town who are figuring hard on the matter of electing representatives this fall. " All students of politics are aware that the main interest in the coming election is as to whether this town sends prohibition or non-prohibition representative.s for a state-wide pro- hibition amendment to the constitution will be up for consideration in the next legislature. Fines Result From Raid. In the town court Monday morning Judge W. F. Woodward disposed of three cases arising from a raid made just after midnight Saturday on a home in Mechanic street. One man and two.women paid either fines or costs and it was understood that the young woman who has rented the home is to leave town before the end of the week. FUNERAL George L. Lyon. At 2 o'clock Monday afternoon a funeral service for George Lafayette Lyon was held at the home of his son, Glen F. Lyon, North Main street, Rev. Walter B. Williams of the Westfield Congregational . church officiating. The bearers were Charles H. Bacon, Charles_ L. Darbie, representing Mo- riah lodge, A..F. and A. M.; Deacon Williard S. Danielson, Deacan Theo- dore E. Hammett, . representing the Westfield Congregational church, Ar- n0ld Wilde and Gaultaire L'Heureux, representing the Quinebaug company, with which concern, Mr. Lyon was identified for a period of nearly 40 vears. X Burial was in' Westfield cemetery. A, F. Wood was in charge of the fu- neral arrangements. PUTTING FORTH MIGHTY EFFORT Entire Section Working So as Not to Fall Short of Red Cross Quota. Chairman -Clifford H. Starkweather of the Danielson district Red Cross committee said just before 6 o'clock Monday evening that it was safe to say that the receipts in the first day’s drive to raise this district's appor- tionment of $5,000 of the Red Cross fund was in excess of $1.000. At that hour the exact res were not available, for Mrs. E. H. Keach, Kead of the campaign committee ac- tively engaged in the canvassing, had not received reports from all of her solicitors. Included in Tonday’s receipts were the contributions of the banks and corporations in the district. The fig- ures for the first day look encouraa- ing, but it must be remembered that they include most of the heavy sub- scriptions that will come in and that if the district is to reach its apportion- ment all must give and give liberally. Some gifts were noted Monday that showed a decided increase over gifts received from the same persons in the last drive. This was taken as an en- couraging sisn and raised the hopes of the workers that. with the enthu- siastic campaisning carried forward without"Tetup throughout the week the district may attain_its quota. The ‘state organization representa- tives say that eastern Coniecticut “fell down” ‘in last fall's drive, didn’t give as\liberally as did other sections of the state, and it is to redeem itself that this section will put forth a mighty effort this week.

There was a big session of the city court Monday morning, when ‘there were 18 cases on the docket. Seven- teen were so-called automobile cases —the result of alleged violations of the traffic and automobile laws and consisted chiefly of failure of drivers to stop their machines before passing standing trolley cars in the center of the city and for mot having proper lights on_the machines. Judge Geissler ' imposed moderate fines and costs. The court room was crowded with defendants, their friends and ‘persons curious to see the dispo- sition of the cases, which were brought through the activities to the city police department. It seems a curious fact that such a large peroentage of automobile driv- ers have not familiarized themselves with the sections’ of the automobile law pertaining to the passing of standing trolley cars, but the more than a score of arrests here within the past few days show that is true, nevertheless. There is also much misunderstand- ing as to what a motorist’s right are in such cases. If a driver brings his car to a dead stop ten feet distant from a standing car and waits till he is certain that passengers have gotten off the cars and all who apparently are going are aboand that he may then proceed with great caution. thoush the trolley remains standing,but only at such very slow rateas not to endanger the life or limb-of any person. A tull stop must be made before so pro- ceeding, however. ALL MUST REGISTER New Orders For Young Men of Age Since June 5, 1917, Official war department telegrams received here Monday requested the fullest possible publicity of the fact that Wednesday, June 5, has been set as, registration day for young men who have become 21 years of age since June 5 of last year. 1t is also pointed out that all such Yyoung men must register, whether or rot they are ultimately found fit for military service, no matter what the condition of their health or physical being or mental clearness. -The regis- tration will extend into jails] reforma- tories and other public institutions. The co-operation of every citizen is desired in spreading the information that all young men who have reached 21 years of age since last June 5 must register. Failure to do so brings the classification of deserter upon such de- linquents and renders them liable to the severe penalties provided Yor such cases under the rules of the selective service law. All the young men who are to reg- ister are to appear at the superior court room here. The registration will be under the direction of the lo- cal hoard. Registration will commence at 7 p. m., and will continue until 9 p. m, so as to give all ample opportu- nity to meet the government require- ments. Stole Friend’s Gold Watch. On_a charge of theft, Joseph Pot- vin, Jr., was before Judge M. H. Geis- sler in the city court Monday morn- ing and was given -a sentence of six months in jail. Potvin was represent- ed as having stolen the gold watch of his “friend” Leroy Parker. Potvin previously has been before the court to answer to charges of a question- able nature, so the penalty imposed was made somewhat severe. Husband of Mrs. Lussier in' Town. Napoleon Lussier, of Attleboro, hus band of Sarah Lussier, who at Willi- mantic today will face a charge of murder in the first degree, was in this city Monday afterneon, conferring with counsei relative to the case. He was accompanied by his little davgh- ter. Working For Red Cross. Miss S. Elizabeth Clarke has ex- pressed delight over the manner In which a large group of Red Cross workers are giving valuable time and service to the cause. There are 100 enrolled in this class. and at their last meeting 67 were in attendance_while the average attendance is 75. In one | cvening of work this organization turned out 1300 sponges. Each of the workers gets a Red Cross after giving 15 hours of service and it is for these little decorations of honor that many strive, while thinking of the soldiers over the seas for whom they arel| working. The Junior Chautauqua Alumni As- sociation also is doing good work. These young people at a recent as- sembly at the high school building made a numbér of paper back-pads. CAMPAIGN STARTING By Today, Red Cross Canvassers Will Be Actively at Work, Harry C. Meinken of the Red Cross organization eaid that the campaign for the Putnam district’s 37,500 did | not gained full momentum Monday, but something was being done and ioday will find scores of workers out doing service for the great cause. It was announced Monday that Mrs. John O. Fox will conduct the Red Cross canvass in the Sawyer district of this town, and that the work in the Punam Heights district will be in_charge of Mrs. Clarence E. Pierce, Superintendent A. D. Lown of the Manhasset Manufacturing, company, in brief talks to theatre audiences, urged subscriptions this week to the Red Cross fund. At North Grosvenordale Monday evening there was a_large open air meeting at the baseball grounds of the Athletic association. A Liberty Quartette sang patriotic songs and there were stirring addressas that should bring results this week in the way of liberal contributions from the people of that village. High School Teacher Resigns.

Tt is understood that AMiss Hart is to receive a minimum salary of $1200, to increase to $1500.
