$1,000 a 1925.
We do not perceive an awakening in the demand for
cattle. Dealers are quite inqusitive. What is the
trouble with the cattle trade? We didn't look for this
last week It's shame to find nice river cattle in the
yards that can't be sold at the prices offered -
We infer that the stock cost shade too high in the
country for continued heavy receipts at market 1t is
difficult matter to predict the exact state of the

prices from l4th to 1-2 cent lower dressed weight
than last week and not very quick at sales at this

A New Orleans correspondent makes
the startling assertion that the popula-
ton of that city has fallen off 10000
in two years time, and that there are
now more than 5000 houses and stores
untenanted. The political troubles of
the past two years have been enough to
depopulate any city or ruin any country.
The Crescent City will never regain
her ancient rank and prestige as COM
mercial and business city until the
present race of politicians has died out.

REMARKs-Butter has arrived freely and prices
have declined. 1t is to be expected that prices
will gradually decline until much lower than now.

quiet and dull Corn and oats are in fair demand Po
tatoes steady. Grass seeds firm. Maple sugar is
saleable only at low poices.
