Chicago -Drovers' Journal: Compared
with a year ago, at which time farmers
felt fairly well satisfied with the returns
for their live stock, quotations show Tat
cattle about the same, hogs 81 70 higher,
In the large number Of animals market
ed at Chicago this difference. per hun
dred is sufficient to add considerably TO
the bank accounts Of producers In fact,
there has rot been a time when the ay
erage farmer was in better shape than
he is now. This is proved in no uncer-
tain way by figures showing. the farm
mortgages that have been paid off dur
ing the past year. Farmers, and espe-
cialIy stock raisers, who are wide awake
and attend to business properly, have no
reason to complain Of market conditions
