The ofTense with which Pike was
charged was alleged in the complaint
to have been committed August 1,
1917, and after the issuance of the
warrant for his arrest, January 8, he
is said to have been scouting for an
oil company and the officers were un-
| able to locate him. It is alleged that
,1 on January 22, 1918, Miss Bigbie, the
prosecuting witness, went to the home
of the Pikes and, placing a pictol at
the head of Miss Ida Pike, demanded
that she tell her the whereabouts of
her brother, Will Pike. It is not known
if she received the desired informa-
tion, but complaint was filed against
her in the county court on March 12,
after the arrest of Will Pike, charging
' iier with pointing a pistol at Miss
Pike. She was arrested and held in
bail of $250 for trial in the county
court. She made bond and was related.

At a called meeting of the Council
| of Defense on Monday night, J. G.
Robinson, the wealthy farmer of the
1 Etowah neighborhood who was taken
n charge on Sunday for failure to do
I his part in war activities, was again
j arraigned, and demonstrated a very
iffeient attitude from that of Sun-
• lay. He had been an inmate of the
1 Slacker's Jail on Sunday, and laid
8 . all day and all night in the county
ail, and had talked with a number of
lis friends, and his experience and
t . decided him thin he was
•vrong, that he had not realized his
esponsibilities. He expressed himself
I is willing now to do what the Council
t' Defen-e required of him and in the
uture would do his part in all the war
ictivities.
A considerable part of his change
f attitude was brought about by a
visit to him in the jail by Assistant U.
5. Attorney Wise, who is said to have
•old him that the Council of Defense
was thoroughly within its rights in
aring for his case as it had. Mr. H. L.
Muldrow had gone to the city and ex-
amined the matter to U. S. Attorney
.•"'ain, who sent Mr. Wise down to get
Mr. Robinson's version of the matter,
ind after getting all the facts he de
ided that the Council of Defense had
not gone beyond its powers Several
>ther men talked to Mr. Robinson,
explaining the need of the govern-
ment at this time, and how each and
every man was e\r=yt-€<> .1
part, and how n .-ouU: not anj would
:iot be permitted for one man to do
His part and another man get out of |
t, and the "Light" broke upon Mr.
Robinson nnu he willingly rgreed to
subscribe $400 in Liberty bonds, pay
$100 to the Re,i Cross and pav $10
expense of the Council in sending af-
ter him.
t is case is ,!o«ed. Mr. Robinson
is spoken of by his neighbors as a
cood man in n a-.y respects, but oi.e
whi. when he gets his head set on
any proposition, is difficult to change.
Live stock is raised on the farms and
ranches of the West.
Meat is eaten in the large cities of the
East, and by cur boys in France—thousands
of miles away.
The day of transporting live animals from ranch to
seaboard and overseas has passed. There was too much
waste. The modern packer locates his large and special-
ized plants in the producing regions. He ships the
dressed beef in refrigerator cars, and holds it in his own
reirigerated branch warehouses until delivered to the
retailer. For shipment to foreign ports, he transfers the
meat to refrigerated ships.
By means of his nation-wide organization the
modern packer maintains a continuous flow of meats
to all parts of the country, so that each retailer gets
just the quantity and quality of meat his trade demands,
and at the time he wants it.
Swift & Company recently shipped 1,000 carloads of
meat products in one week to our Armies and to the
Allies.

Bridging the gap from ranch to consumer can
done successfully—and at low unit costs and profits
only by large business organizations.
Swift & Company's profit on meat, always so small
as to have practically no effect on prices, is now limited
by the Government to about 2 cents on each dollar
of sales.
