Cattle. .

Wednesday. May !. 1889.
The cattle market opened with very fiat
tering prospects for the selling interests.
Buyers were early in the saddle, both pack
ers and shippers, and were offering fully
steady prices fort the beef and shipping steers.
The trade was brisk and good many cattle
changed hands. A very considerable pro-
portion of the offerings sold in the morning,
and over half of the cattle were weighed up
before midday. AS the later advices from
eastern points, containing unfavorable re-
ports of the market, the trade here eased up
and the market weakened. For the balance
of the day it was slow and dull and the close
was lower, statesmen putting the decline all
the way from SC to l0c. The steers sold
mostly at S3.5O@3.S0, but there were no
prime heavy cattle. There was quite Il
sprlLkllng of butchers stock on sale, and
anything that was really desirable did not
sell much different from yesterday Stock
crs and feeders We're in good demand and
sold at good strong prices. Some choice light
stockers sold at 3d. and some lighter cattle,
not so good, at $500. A bunch of choice $50
pound feeders brought 1925.

The Italians figuring in the riot over the
matter of reduced wages at the Webster
street depot Tuesday were arraigned in tho
police court yesterday. There were only
four Of them, but about 200 of their country
men assembled about the Jail interested in
the outcome of the case. a. Names and A.
Stopella claimed that they were merely ar
guing concerning the reduction OF wages
and did not intend to raise any disturbance.
The Judge told them that as this
was country of free speech he
therefore could not fine them, and they left
the room with grinnng faces. Michael Cos
tant admitted that he was responsible for
Victor Ranch's eye being in mourning, but
gave as his excuse that Victor drew re-
volver on him. The judge fined Costant Sl5
carrying concealed weapons. He pleaded
guilty TO this and was assessed $50 and costs.

Hogs.

The market was shade lower to-day, or
about sc lower than Monday. The shippers
opened the market by paying S4.400l445 for
good heavy hogs, Boston being liberal
buyer, and good butcher weights brought the
same money. There was good demand for
New York sorts, and light hogs of that de-
scription sold quite readily at S445. There
were not enough light hogs to- supply the de
mand. The packers were OH the bear side of
the deal, and they stood off some time trying
TO buy Jhc mixed hogs at Si35.

Catnrrh in Chiidren.

Our little boy Stokes, now eleven
years old, had catarrh from the time he
was three until he was seven years of
age. Sometimes his breathing was
heavy, and a constant discharge from
the nose. He had more or less treat
ment for four years, but without any
benefit. We gave him Swift's Specific,
and it soon cured him sound and well.
This was four years ago, and there has
been no return of the disease.

O FOR STALLS.


How to Keep Horses From Lying In FILTHY
Mud Paddles.
We are frequently advised to let the
horses stand on the earth in their
stalls. Many a stall through the West
has no floor for other reasons, aside
from the fact Of such being recon-
mended. But after the stalls have
been in use a short time. the complaint
is heard that holes are forming whore
the hind feet stand, SO that the horses
have to lie in q filthy mud puddle. ]
will give the remedy that | have ap-
piled to q case OF this kind.-I do net
give it as the best plan that can b.
adopted, but as a very cheap n thai
might improve many stalls now in
use.
/ placed two pieces Of scantling 2 by
4 inches across the double stall, one
just back of the hind feet, md the
other just back of the fore feet These
are bedded edgewise into the eaa.th till
about even with its surface. Then
across9hese are nailed short boards
81 feet long and 10 inches wide. These
run in the direction of the stals On
this floor ! nailed pieces of sczatling
2 by 4 inches 81 feet long. There lie
ON their sides and one inch apart, so
arranged as to break all the joSAts of
tina boards. When completed, sill In
front of the floor is filed with earth,
till level, or sloping backward a little.
This gives a floor of earth for the fore
feet, which sustain the greater weight.
and gives a dry place for the horses
bed. / think this better than the
common plank floor that covers she
whole stall, and is but q third of the
expense of the former. There ara 40
cold breezes sweeping up through tails
kind Of floor.
If ore wishes still further to ehsapsn
the plan. he can use poles forsthso id8g
pieces of scantling, q leave out the
under floor of boards. and can split out
pieces from straight-grained sticks
from the wood pile, for the short pieces
of scantling. In this way the expense
Of a great improvement on the mud
hole stall would be so reduced as to
stand only a trife above zero.-Cor.
