For Itching Torture

There is one remedy that seldom fails to stop itching torture and relieve skin irritation and that makes the skin soft, clear and healthy. Any druggist can 'supply you with zemo, which generally overcomes all skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pimples, rashes, blackheads, in most cases give way to zemo. Frequently, minor blemishes disappear overnight. Itching usually stops instantly. Zemo is a safe, antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and dependable. It costs only 35c; an extra large bottle, $1.00. It will not stain, is not greasy or sticky and is positively safe lor tender, sensitive skirs. $9.00 to the non -members. Th"re must be a system by which we must pet together. We oiik'lit not to impose upon an organza t ton to bIv us the miv ant ago of such without beins a monibor.

If consumers are to pay less for beef, live-stock raisers naturally will receive less for cattle. If farmers are paid more for live stock, consumers will necessarily pay more for meat. Swift & Company pays for cattle approximately 90 per cent of the price received for beef and by-products. The remaining: 10 per cent pays for dressing, freight to market, operation of distributing houses, and in most cases, delivery to the retailer. Net profits also have to come out of this 10 per cent. i This margin cannot be squeezed arbitrarily without danger of crippling the only effective means of performing the complex service of converting cattle into meat and distributing this meat to the fighting forces and to consumers. Swift & Company's net profit on beef during 1917 was only of a cent per pound. On all products, it was a little less than four cents on each dollar of sales. Complete elimination of these profits would not affect appreciably retail prices of meat, or farm prices of live stock. Swift & Company will be glad to co-operate in devhing: methods that will improve conditions in the meat and live stock industry.
