HOGS AND HOGS.
Greatly Increased Receipts are Shown at the
Yards-A Word About the State of the
Market.


Market.
The receipts of the last three DAYS hav
exceeded the receipts of any six day
previous. On Monday there were abou
600 hogs on the market. Tuesday saw thi
number increased to over 1000. Yester
day the number decreased to 1000 but tn
outlook for today is very bright and if re
| ports are subsrantiated Tuesdays receipt
will be equalled if not beaten. The cattl
| department is also having its share of re
ceipts and the amount of through cattl
which stop here to feed and be picked from
| is a source Of Joy to the patrons of th
market.
| Prices on hogs have declined fully te,
| cents in sympathy with eastern market
| and judging from the present price o
provisions still greater fall is looked for
Pork in eastern markets is quoted at 60 j
a 9.671s per barrel. A barrel contains. i
is estimated, 800 pounds. therefore in sym
pathy with this break in pork the price o
hogs must also come down. Wichita
buyers always have and always will pa,
equal prices with Kansas City.
Among the shippers and commission
men the past few days have been very busy
ones and, as they report, Wichita's hog
market never had better prospects than al
present.
