Principals of Grading
T'he goading of (farm ,products is
based on tete •pr1•n+cvp1e that rt is sound
'business to classify live stock in 'such
a way that the coinsumer will he able
'to • recognize and 'p'u'rchase .quality
products, and that the ;price 'premium
which the consumer will 'pay for the
better grades ishould :be r'e'turned to
the producer of them. Practice 'has
proven !the value ,of the theory 'involv-
ed in the ,grading principle. 'Grading
activi'ti'es: have been a 'tremendous in-
centive to quality production, with re-
sultant price benefit to 'peodwcers.

picture of the scene that hot summer
day when throngs of people clamored
along the rails of that masterpiece of
engineering. The duties Of the men
consisted of directing traffic and
keeping the huge crowds in order

"There was an awful crowd that -day,"
said Mr. Brine, •"I was stationed some
distance :from the (bridge during the
day but at night a miniature 'Niagara

off on the 'brid'ge. We had to see that
no one was 'hurt or binned et -bile the
display was 'being put en. That was
one of the greatest 'stretches of arch
+brid'ge of the 'day. It was a wonderful
piece of engineering. 'Everyone felt
that the bridge could withstand the
strongest forces of nature and it was
never dreamed that et would one dray
lie a twisted 'useless maze of steel as
it is now." Mr. Brine enjoyed one of
the greatest thrills of his life when
he -walked across the ice 'brid'ge at
