The price level of farm pro ducts including live stock, for ?he; first time in several- years recently j reached the average price .level of all commodities. It should be borne in mind that in the; hog or beef cattle 1 business, as with any other business, some men will always be more suc cessful than others. There was a decrease in .the num ber <>f hogs on farms at . the ^beginning of the present year as compared with the year previous. The low pfivesr received for pork during the years following the war decreased hoj; pro duction and this is one of the factors that is resulting in a very favorable ? market. The a\er:ige price of hogs has been about $r> higher per hundred ; weight than a year ago. Supplies of hog products at the leading western market ;;; C.< v?d ?iav v.v,v If per cent less than a year ago with the demand strong, it is interesting to not e that pork consumption per person in the United States in 192-1 exceeded that of any other recent year with the exception of 1923. The strong hop market tends to react favorably -on prices being paid for beef catjl. . . The average price that has been paid per hundred weight for beef" c'attk- is about -$t.5U jaehar than :n January. It i- en couraging. to know that feeders of beef cattle made a nice profit above : the cost of feed on winter fed -teerS ; that were secured in the fall at right prices. The total number of beef cattle on farms in January was 5 per cent less than at the same time a year previous, and the number of cattle being marketed has been less by about the same per cent. Esti mated consumption of beef per per son in the United States was gTeater in 1 924 than -for several years. FAIR AND SOUI^D COMPENSATION Speedy and adequate compensa tion for an injured workman is a sound and basic principle that must apply to ail hazardous industries in the interest of both employer and employe. It is not a fair test of a working man's compensation law to base an afjrument upon an isolated case of an injured workman having difficulty in securing compensation. The compensation laws in differ ent states' all differ in s?me respects and .also differ in efficiency 'of ad ministration. Very few. states have what .fil led a complete state monoply of in dustries accident insurance or ex clude legitimate casualty companies frorr competing with the state. The >alutary principle employed in i the interest industries and laborers ' i> compulsory compensation in all hazardous employments. An ideal industrial insurance law should provide that compensation j applies in all such employments in i case" of injury regardless of v*' ether the stale, or a stock company carries tiie insurance. (V-cpcr law centering around a state fund, as the all im portant thing is a weak' spot in any industrial' insurance system. In nine tenth of the states the law; compels compensation and permits j insurance in any sound way that the employer selects and on the best, terms in the interest of the payroll and those Who g;*t the money. A wo r k i ngman's compensation system that requires all casualty insurance to be carried by the state and ali compensation to come from a state fund is unfair, unsound' and socialistic. i NOTICE OF SALE OF BONDS The Board of Aldermen of the Town of Brevard, will receive sealed proposals at the office of said Board in the Town of Brevard, N.

Thar :s wky niv friends are welcome at anv time. I have dishes from ail parts, of the. world at a moment'^ notice because I keep my unexpected l-'h ^t-shelf stocked with canned foods. , "Do you n;iun to tell me," inter rupted the unexpected guest, "That you live 011 canned ft?ods!"

"Well I never dreamed so much deliciousness could come out of cans," exclaimed the guest. "I ^m going to stop on mv way home and 5fock up for unexpected guests, my self. The unexpected guest is a dreaded event in our house. What shall I get to start iny shelf?" "First of all," advised the hos tess, "I see to it that I havrf plenty of evaporated milk. You can do .everything with evaporated milk , you can da with fresh milk or Cream, even to whipping it. Then 1 I stock up on ttmaiues, corn, peas j and both string beans and baked . beans, because these arc always in i demand. There arc at least fifty : ways of using earned tomatoes,, and ever so many ways of serving baked bean?. One of my favorite n;cip<is is t<> pir 'f a can of to matoes with a bunch of fresh pars ley when I cat: g-.t. it, two good sized onions, and two or three crrten peppers, all cut fine, in a casserole.

With the ad dition of a little orange or grape fruit juice the mixed fruits make a delicious fruit cocktail, a.s well a? ' serving the purpose of fruit salad with a leaf or two of lettuce and a little salad dressing. One can get a whole meal out of a plate 01 mixed vegetable salad. "Of coiirse there are the ready made mayonnaise and various sauces which are indispensable, and cans of tuna fish, which may be served as a salad, or creamed and in croquettes ? ? lobster, shrimp, salmon and sardines. pimientos and soups and spaghetti. Then one must have other protein foods be sides baked beans, such as chicken, a la king and boned, corn beef, > dried beef and deviled hanv, also desserts of various kinds, such as jams, fruits- ? and; puddings. I add to these a little caviar and a" few jeans of sweet potatoes. I find these potatoes delicious for .candied, sweets and very convenient when sweet potatoes arc Out of season.
