STEADY 70 STRONG
Not Enough Hogs But Quality
Better.
TOPS GO UP AGAIN
$4i2 IL Paid for Best Hogs
Light Cattle Trade.

The wichita hog market yesterday was
quoted as steady to strong with a little
better supply and considerably better
grade OF stock. There were the same
number of cars received, seven, and these
were of a good deal better grade of stock
than the hogs In car lots which were re-
ceived the day before. The wagon Of
ferings were heavier and the total vol
ume Of receipts about one hundred better
but stin short of the demand. The demand
was very strong and the local killing
call alone could have used as many more
and tbs shipping and order calls were
likewise firm throughout the day. The
grade Of hogs in the car division, while
not at all fancy in any sense, was yet
quite fair and better than for several
days past The average weight for the
day was q pounds better than that Of
Thursday, and this alone is an indication
of an improvement in quality. There
was a new top put on hogs, and this was
. point better than Thursday. and reg
istered the top notch Of A.12l5. Only
one car took this pinnacle figure, and
this was load OF 275-pound porkers, and
they were the best fo= several days past.
More of this class would as readily have
taken the top price. There was an active
earnest demand all day for butcher hogs
from any source, and again there was a
disappointment at the light supply. The
dockage was a little strong yesterday on
car hogs. but practically nothing on the
local stuff All the car offerings came
within the 71k-cent range, and there were
also several punches Of wagon hogs in
this limit Everything offered was prompt
~ sold and two cars reported late kept
all the buyers on hand. and these along
with the -rest(, were quickly disposed of
at the strong prices quoted, and the pens
were empty on the close. There was a
good feeling all day and hogs were want
ed even at the higher prices. Provisions
were generally dun and prices not much
changed. This market now is in a posi-
tion to handle at good profits to the ship
per many times the number of hogs be-
ing received. The demand is keen for
all the several grades Of butcher hogs
and shippers who have been on the mar
ket this week have learned that there
could be no better market for hogs all the
way from light to heavy than this point.
Several days they have been within a
dime OF Kansas City, and in all cases the
strength Of the local market has compared
very favorably with that Of any western
mint

COTTON.

New York, July 4.-Speculation was
very slack and fitful in cotton futures.
The local operators had the market pref
ty much to themselves all day. The alb
sence Of outside interest was explained
by a popular preference to hold or for
reliable data from Texas. News from the
BRACES valley was no worse. while from
other parts of the cotton belt IL contin-
ued favorable. The market here opened
barely steady at unchanged prices to a
decline of l point. Subsequent changes
were small, but business dragged and the
feeling was generally weak. At the low
est point prices showed a decline OF 1
to 5 points. Liquidation was something
OF a feature, notably in the way of Au-
gust selling. The market was finally
steady at a net loss OF to 4 points.

place to place. This virtue Is most often
carried by q sick or exposed pig. but
may be transmitted In many other ways,
as on the feet of attendants, by means
OF streams Of water, by dogs and carrion
birds feeding on cholera carcasses, etc.
My observation has been that the. disease
often follows the highway, showing that
the virus has in some way been carried
from farm to farm. in many instances
coming under my observation this trans
mission has occurred as a result of swine
running at large. When the disease once
appears in the herd the food. and drink
becomes contaminated with the contagion
present in the droppings Of the diseased.
and thus all to greater or less extent
are exposed.
Remembering these facts II is easy to
understand that certain precautionary
measures will much tend to lessen the
danger Of an outbreak and restrict its
spread when 1t does occur in the herd.
During cholera times no hogs should
be allowed to run at large and no new
ones be brought onto the farm for any
purpose whatever, except they be kept
away from the herd for a sufficient time
to prove that they are free from disease.
Herds should be fenced away from
streams contaminated by cholera herds
and all owners or attendants OF healthy
herds should not go about cholera prem
ises without thoroughly disinfectIng their
boots before going among their own hogs.
Owners Of cholera hogs should not go
about his neighbours healthy animals.
When the disease appears on the farm
the well should be removed to new yards
and lime in the form of whitewash ap-
piled to troughs and all wood work, and
sprinkled over the ground dry, should be
freely used. This will lessen the num-
Der OF germs or the amount Of the virus
continually being taken into the system
The affected hogs should be fed sparing-
ly and may receive to advantage the
powder recommended by the Bureau OF
Animal Industry. Water from a deep we'll
Is always preferable. Under no consider
alton should hogs be allowed to drink
from stagnant pools.
By being extremely careful about bring
ing the virus on the farm and observing
the necessary precautions even after the
disease appears the loss from swine dis
ease may be very much lessened.
The serum treatment now being extern
sively tried promises much, but still even
the presence of a successful cure the
treatments outlined above are very neces-
sary. Prevention is always better than
a cure.-W. B: Niles, Assistant State

which is believed to be accurate: "Busi-

to the apprehension. this Is the season

arc keeping large surplus balances for
emergency purposes. IL Is well known
that a considerable amount OF German

main causes Of q decline Of 1-4G3-sc in
wheat today. Corn closed 1-Sc higher.
oats unchanged and provisions 1-2g7 1-2c
higher.
Wheat opened with very little to give
the market a start either way, Septem-
Der unchanged at 20 1919 5-sc. Ae de-
cline to 70 3-4c followed on inherent
cables and the lack of cash demand.
There was no Paris market on account Of
holiday. and weather in Germany and
France was reported fine. At the decline
there was some buying against puts and
covering by shorts which caused a tenn
porary reaction in September to q lac,
but the influence of heavy domestic re-
ceipts and the absence OF any news of
decided bullsh character soon impaired
a tone of heaviness to the market which
lasted for the remainder of the session.
Liquidation did not at any time become
heavy. but buying was limited and con-
fined almost entirely to small scalpers.
There were claims o ftoo much rain in
the spring wheat territory, but in the
main. crop conditions were reported ia
vorable. The seaboard demand was fully
as dull as the local cash demand. New

ued heavy shipments from South Ameri-
can countries had not a little influence
in the downward course of the market.
Argentine shipments were 100000. COM
pared with 10000 last year. The trading
late in the session was without feature,
being confined almost entirely to scalp
ers. September kept close to 70 1-Sc and
was bringing that price at the close.
Corn was dull and fairly steady. There
was a dip early on selling against liberal
country acceptances and on the generally
favorable weather. but the bullish tone
of Shows crop report impaired a better
feeling later. and the decline was fully
recovered. Speculative trade on the
whole. was slow. Receipts were 62S cars.
Shipping demand was good. September
ranged from SO rs to 81 1884 lac and
closed 1-Sc higher at "a 1-Sc.
