10 o’clock, the inmates of the home
of Mr. J. M. Miller became alarm¬

ing the information that Miss Ila,
a member of the family of that
home, was lying dangerously ill at
an hospital in Washington, D. C.,
from influenza,
Mr. and Mrs, Miller left at the
earliest possible moment for the
capital city, but hours before the
train that speeded on its way ar¬
rived in Washington, the soul of
this accomplished young lady who
was gloriously devoting the best
effort of her life in the Bureau of
War Risk Insurance, was wafted
upon the breeze of heavenly grace
to that sweet resting-place where
pains and troubles are unknown.
Miss Ila was born and reared in
White county and attended college
at Young Harris, finishing her
course of preparation in an Atlanta
business college. Everywhere she
went she made many friends
amongst those of pure spirit and
lofty purpose.
Tlie remains w'ere brought to the

ment, to lie with other members of
the family, where the bodv was
gently lowered in the grave in pres¬
ence of a large concourse of friends

Cattle Baying for
•
.
Swift & Company buys more than
9000 head of cattle, on an average,
every market day.
Each one of them is “sized up” by
experts.
Both the packer’s buyer and the
commission salesman must judge what
amount of meat each animal will yield,
and how fine it will be, the grading of
the hide, and the quantity and quality
of the fat.
Both must know market conditions
for live stock and meat throughout the
country. The buyer must know where
the different qualities, weights, and
kinds of cattle can be best marketed
as beef.
If the buyer pays more than the
animal is worth,the packer loses money
on it. If he offers less, another packer,
or a shipper or feeder, gets it away
from him.
If the seller accepts too little, the live¬
stock raiser gets less than he is entitled
to. If he holds out for more than it is
worth, he fails to make a sale.
A variation of a few cents in the price
per hundred pounds is a matter of vital
importance to the packer, because it
means the difference between profit
and loss.
