advance. Today there was a slight de-
cline and the bulk of the hogs sold a
shade lower. The run was fairly liberal
and the demand good at the lower prices.
The bulk of the hogs sold at s.. 2505. 80,
with range of $500 to $5.3211a. The lat
ter price was paid for the prime heavy
hogs and choice butchers. Rough pack
ers are selling steady at $500. Pigs are
strong with the best selling at s4.6O. Our
hog market is in fine shape and prices
are high. We can use many more hogs
than are coming.
SHEEP The sheep and lamb market
is little changed from last week. Re-
ceipts have been comparatively light,
with fair demand and about steady
prices prevailing for all kinds Good
quality feeding and stock stuff will find
ready sale. See quotations on hogs
and sheep in market report on this
page.
Very truly,

Feb 15.-The Commercial Advertiser s
London financial cablegram says: The
stock market here was heavy at the
opening today, firm at the close. The
strength was attributed to the impress
sion that the end of the war in South
Africa is near, Gen. Kitchener's charac-
terist1c silence when in touch with the
enemy, being regarded as significant.
American shares We're much quieteT. but
hard and scarce. On the curb. after the
close of the market, there was sharp
demand for Atchison issues and New
York Central. Berlin is buying Norfolk &.

more of gold in bars and there is half
million now on the way. from Russia.
Money was much in demand. The rate

The Butte inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1901-1912, 1901-12-31

dinner party given last evening at the
home of Governor ]. X. Toole. The
names Of the Helena and Butte guests
were printed in the Inter Mountain last
evening.
Tonight the Montana club will give a
smoker. watching the old year out and
the new year in, to which all the visitors
and the newspaper men accompanying
have been invited. 1t is believed that
the governors will complete their labors
and return this evening.
Senator r.. H. Carter came from St.
Paul with Governor Van SAINT and party.
Governor Toole, General Donovan and T.
G. Kurtz met the party down the road
early Monday morning.
Governor Van SAINT is, Of necessity, the
most enthusiastic on the subject of sup
pressing the Northern Securities COM
pany. He has had the support of the
Minneapolis Times, which has been for
many years an anti-Hill organ in Minne-
sofa. On the contrary, the st. Paul
Globe, owned by Hill. has minimized the
Importance of the meeting of governors,
and has opposed the governors policy.
Governor Toole has never taken an ag-
gressive stand on the proposition, merely
pledging his support in any movement
which would secure the enforcement Of
a law if it was proven that it was not
being enforced.
The Butte inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1901-1912, 1901-12-31

scribed some Of the most modern de-
vices used for this purpose. He also
outlined the extensive experiments that
the experiment station, acting in con-
junction with the department of agri-
culture, has recently made in determin-
ing the use that is being made Of waters
diverted for irrigation purposes. The
long discussion which followed was par
ticipated in by several prominent ranch
ers of the county.
Discussing the Fruit Question.
Mr.. Black, a prominent fruit grower
of the Jefferson, talked very forcibly
upon the fruit question, urging all
farmers to plant and care for enough
fruit to at least supply their own use.
