which received the top price was a splen-

shipped here by Mr.. T. ]. Hessell of Che
ney. Mr.. HesseIl's hogs were the best that
have been on the market this week.
There were all grades of porkers on the
market yesterday, and they, of course, got
all kinds of prices. Some of the loads
could hardly have been improved upon
had they been made to order. Then again,
there were a few good mixed loads until
the quality tapered down to top mean
lights The market was active ali day
and yesterday registered the heaviest re-
ceipts for the week. Work started earlier
and closed earlir than usual
The official receipts for the day were
LOIS. This is a decrease for the same
day one week ago of I32, but Thursday
week was the heaviest day during last
week. 1t is an increase over Thursday a
year ago of 973. Tops seven days ago were
quoted at s3.65, and the bulk of sales from
50. 55d3. 6212. For the corresponding day
fifty-two weeks ago tops brought $3.50,
while the majority of sales ranged be-
tween S3.30d3.50. In every respect there
is such a vast change for the better at
the yards that a shipper one year ago
would not realize the better business and
