HOGS WERE STRONG
An Advance at Least Five
Cents Registered.
TOP PRICE WAS $3.50.
Cattle Market Was Dull and
Inactive.
TOP PRICE WAS $3.50

The hog market in this city yesterday
was 215 to 71kc higher on different grades.
The average advance, however, was
about sc, and the market was firm and
strong on this basis.
The advance; IL anything, was even
higher than this, as the quality of the
offerings were poorer than the day before
but the prices paid were much higher
in spite of this
There was but light run Of hogs. But
few arrived early in the day and the rush
did not begin until late in the afternoon,
when the bulk of the hogs arrived
There was sharp competition for the
hogs and the market was strong
throughout. AS usual, there were no soft
spots and when the prive advanced it re-
manned firm without wavering.
The market compared well with other
western markets. Advances were regis
tered at all places, but the prices adj
vanced the most in Wichita. The de-
mand, If anything, was also stronger, so
that poor grade hogs realized very high
prices.
There were but few wagon hogs on the
market, as the roads were in bad condi-
lioI OHlhs 70 the recent lHaW anu lnlS
made it difficult for the farmers TO reach
the market. This, also, It is thought. ac-
counts for the rather light receipts of the
day.
The shippers to the south OF Wichita re-
port that there is now hardly shipper
who thinks of going past Wichita. The
market here offers such splendid opportu-
mites for profit that it is bad judgment
to sell elsewhere. The receipts are grad
ually growing and the market seems des-
tined TO soon take its place as one of
the foremost In the country. The mar
ket here is peculiar. The more hogs that
come, the greater is the demand. This
has proven the case right along and 4
proven by an investigation of the SAFE
books

oy some, as there is a marked short
age in all abbatoir products. Chicago is
snort S5,OOO000 pounds of meat to what
1t was a year ago, while Kansas City is
2oOO0OO pounds short. Other packing
centers are in a similar condition.
The directors Of the American Hereford
and Shorthorn associations held a meet
ing at the Auditorium, in Chicago, yes
terday, and decided to give a Joint ex-
hibit at Kansas City during the last two
weeks in October. Premiums aggregat-
Ing $4,000 will be offered for the best
products of each breed.
Mr.. ]. H. Grisdale agriculturist at the
Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, en-
bodies the results of eight years expert
ments there on pig feeding, from which
he draws the following conclusion:
1t will not pay to cook feed for
swine where economy of pork production
is the sole consideration
2 There is gradual increase in the
quantity of feed consumed for every
pound of gain in live weight after the
average live weight exceeds 100 pounds.
8. The most economical time to slaugh-
ter swine is when they weigh from 175
to 200 pounds.
4. The greatest and most economical
GAINS dIe uduo Wnen the SWINE are abe
TO eat the most food in proportion to
their weight.
5. Frozen wheat may be used as a
profitable feed for swine.
6. Skimmilk adds most materially to
the value Of a grain ration and 100 pounds
mixed grains equal about 700 pounds
skimmilk. The relative value Of skimmilk
in any ration varies with the amount fed.
the poorest return per pound fed being
obtained when the proportion Of skimmilk
to the total food is the greatest
Z. The average dressed weight of
swine is about 76.44 per cent of the fatted
weight
g. Skimmilk is a most valuable adjunct
to the grain ration, when hard flesh is
desired.
Type Of animals fed influences charac-
ter of meat more than breed; 1. e.. the
fact of an animal being a Yorkshire or
a Tamworth will not insure a good bacon
but they must be Of a rangy
type, and fed in certain way
10. Feeding mixed meal (barley, peas

meat.
II. The greatest gains from given
amount of grain appear to be made when
it is ground and soaked for twenty-rour
hours. Part of grain fed whole is fire.
quently voided before being digested.
Y. Mixed grains are more economical
than grains fed pure
b. Pigs whose rations are limited make
on the whole, more economical gains than
pigs that are rushed.
IA. Maturity or ripeness of the animal
affects the quality OF the flesh.

NET CHANGES TRIVIAL
Except in the lnduStrials, At
tackled by the Bears.
PROFESSIONALS ARE TIMID
In View of the Still Uncertain
Money Situation.
PROFESSIONALS ARE TlMID

New York, Jan. 5.-Prices OF stocks
traversed a considerable range today,
moving forward in the early dealings and
then pursuing a retrograde course to
about last nights level. The deduction
to be drawn is that professional traders
are disinclined to undertake extensive
speculative commitments. The most ef-
fective influence towards this disposition
is the conviction that the money markets
of the world are not yet in condition to
afford abundant funds for speculation on
credit. The incident which pointed this
moral was the unexpected proportions Of
the gold Engagements for tomorrow
steamer, mounting up TO S3,5g0.0oo as COM
pared with preliminary estimates Of 81,
000,OOO. The large engagements were in
spite of sagging interests rates IN Lon
don and sharp decline in the discount
rate at Berlin. 1t is evident therefore.
that the British government designs
abundant use for large additional funds
and that available gold supplies viii be
drawn TO London as FAR as possible. Such,
a prospect makes definitely against the
probability of an easy money market in
New York in spite of the replenishment
which various factors are now bringing
TO this center. The cause OF the early
strength was the cessation of the selling
pressure for Berlin account. The absOrp-
ton of New York Central stocks and the
sympathetic effect uDon the whole rail-
road list continued. The reaction gained
force with the growth in volume of the
gold engagements and the bears were
disposed TO take advantage of the situa-
ton TO depress Industrials, notably Sugar
and the Steel and Iron stocks Rumors
were circulated that new difficulties
would be encountered in effectlng the dis
tribution of dividends on the common
stocks of iron and steel companies, which
ii has been represented was soon 10 be
made Official disclaimers that any such
difficulties were apprehended failed 70
cause any notable recovery in the stocks
affected. The closing of the market was.
however, firm but very dull, and net
changes, aside from the industrials. were
got important. The weeks regular cur
rency movement by express has been
largely in favor Of the banks, the outgo
having fallen TO less than a million dol
lars. 80 that the weeks gain from that
source is estimated at over 100000, not
counting receipts by registered mail,
which last week were considerable. In
addition the banks have gained from the
sub-treasury $3.50 900. But 100000 OF
gold exported last week must be reck-
oned; that loss on all accounts is figured
at s., 10000, at least Whether this has
been offset by loan contribution is doubt
full, In view Of the weeks activity in the
stock market. Closing prices Of stocks
today were as follows:
