Meat Prices to Soar 4 to 5 Cents a Pound Meat prices may be boosted from i tour to five cents per pound before] ! the end of the week, according to the! local retailers and butchers. During the last week or ten days' there has been a noticeable advance in practically all kinds of beef, veal, pork and so on, and these prices will continue to soar. Most all meat to- 1 day cost three cents per pound more ; than a week or ten days ago. j The wholesalers, of course, accord ing to the retail dealers, are back of the boost. And the former blames! this on the European war. Eastern i shippers have been accustomed to ex- 1 pect their choicest supplies from the West, but during the last few months the pick of the western cattle has , been snapped up by agents for the European armies. Naturally the more or less inferior cattle are left. Added to this is the poor corn crop and the interference of the Argentine meat shipments. Five Hundred Attend Bard Co.'s Formal Housewarming More than five hundred people yes terday and last evening attended pub lic "open house" at the new factory of Bard & Co., manufacturers of piano-player actions, 921-925 Hemlock st reet. Under the supervision of Charles 12. Bard, president of the company, the visitors were taken through tlie mill and shown how the action of a modern player-piano is made from start to finish. Explanation of the various pneumatic valve actions was made by the company's experts and one of the latest models was kept busy playing the merry tunes of the moment. The Bard company was incor porated several months ago and al ready has built up a good business. J2x>uma4& j The Sale of Sheets An event of rare opportunity to save.
