WINTER HOG PACKING.
A Scarcity OF Hogs May Make 1t Quite
short.

scarcity OF Hogs May Make 1t Quite
short
KANSAS CITY, Mo, Nov. /. THE win
ter packing season opens to-day and
the greatest interest at the yards for
the next four months win center in the
hog pens 1t is with the porlSer that
much of the profit is made in western
cattle feeding, and question of absorb
ing interest TO every farmer is what
what will the winter hog market be?
The indications are that it viii be an
active and high one
There seems to be n scarcity of hogs
throughout the west, and there are
those in the trade who think the win
ter packing in the west will fail near
100000 hogs short of last seasons.
And that there is a well grounded,
strong bull sentiment in the trade
is evidenced by the fact that pacif-
ers have been unable to squeeze prices
down very materially for the winter
season Packers are paying now, with
the winter season here, sl45@1 65 per
cwt more than this time last year. And
us prices are generally better later in
the winter season than at its beginning,
hog raisers may study the winter mar
kets with moro complacency than for
some years.

FARM NOTES.

On the farm experimental work must
be accurate, painstaking and as COM
/ plete as possible in order to be valuable.
Do not store away the cabbage until
| there have been several hard frosts or
there is danger OF cold, freezing
weather.
/ 1t is rarely advisable 20 plow or culti-
vate In the orchard lots in the fall. If
considered necessary it should be stirred
shallow.
Giving a generous feed of corn every
evening is one Of the best ways Of in
dueing turkeys, ducks and geese to
come home at night
Sulphur for the nests, whitewash for
the houses kerosene for the perches,
exercise, pure air and n variety Of food
for the fowls are the secrets of success
full management.
One cheap way of ifiiii making the poultry
house warm is TO paste papers on the
inside, using -four paste and put
ting the paper on two or three layers
thick. Then whiten thoroughly.
With a good range, plenty of water
aud comfortable quarters it is compara-
lively easy to raise ducks or geese.
They are hardy, not usually infested
with vermin, and will largely take care
of themselves
From your clover field you can obtain
one first-class crop of hay and another
of fairly good hay, three or four bush
els Of seed which alone will be worth
as much as any other crop, and then,
besides, your land may be benefited
considerably.
Clover hay, when judici ously used, is
profitable crop, especially for cattle.
The first crop may be cut for hay. If
the season is good after that fair
profit may be made on the second crop.
A reasonable yield Of seed from a sec
ond crop is from three to four bushels
per acre and as it usually sells at about
s. per bushel this will pay we'll
If you have good piece of wheat
land from which you want a crop every
year, you must use clover. Sow the
seed on the wheat early in the
spring, and II the land is reason
ably good after the wheat is cut the
clover will grow into good crop. Keep
the stock off and let in grow While
the clover is yet green turn it under
DO not wait for it TO go to seed, but
plow it under just as soon as it has its
greatest growth.
II farmers would realize any profit
they must combine grain raising and
stock raising, and If they have stock it
is profitable to let them have a good
pasture OF clover, but still it is well 10
remember that your land Is only en-
riched very little when this plan is fol-
lowed. II you want % enrich your
land quickly plow the clover crop un-
der when il is green. sow and raise
another with the wheat let it grow up
after the wheat is cut, then tura IT uu-
der and so on.

4 sag Of Three Cents WithIa Week Eu-
ropean Demand Almost Nil.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct 30 The
wheat market dropped more than a cent
bushel to-day, making a decline of
more than three cents in the past week
The market has been sagging for long
time under the influence Of the extra
ordinary shipments from the country.
All markets have become blocked. and
toadd TO the difficulty ocean frei- az ~ Is,
to Europe have been advanced nearly 100
per cent in the past few days, making
it more difficult than ever to get the
grain out Of the country. There has
been n very large holding of wheat in
Chicago for December delivery which
was bought several weeks ago and has
been the chief cause OF the stubborn
resistance to a decline which the mar
ket has until recently shown In the
past few days this "long" wheat has
been for sale and that has added to the
weakness of the market
October wheat in Chicago closed to-
day at 69l( cents, which is the lowest
price In a record Of twenty-eight years,
with two exceptions In October, 1856,
the price reached 6935 cents and in De-
cember, 1857, wheat sold In Chicago at
60 q cents
