HOG MARKET

TO Zoe Yesterday.

Cattle Receipts Not Sufficient

TOP PRICE WAS sac

The hog market had another surprise
in store yesterday for the sellers. and
another Is TO 20 cent advance was made.
Shippers came in with their hogs and
about all they had to say was that they
did not expect to get so much money.
The farmers have begun to sell light
hogs again and their excuse is that they
DO not expect these prices 10 last They
figure that while a 200-pound hog now
brings in the neighborhOod Of s15. that
they might feed him until he weighed
300 pounds and sell him for the same
money if prices should work down TO
8 per hundred. There were no fancy
heavy hogs on the market, but some
very good mixed packers brought $7.S5
to S745 Some car hogs weighing under
200 pounds, with a sprinkling of rather
thin pigs, sold for $7121z. Cudahy was
the heavy buyer, but Armour was on
the market from start TO finish. The
market was characterized by great &C
tivity, and some of the hogs We're sold
before they were out Of the chutes.

Newport, r. L. August 2e.-The inter

eigner in three sets to one and by scores

William A. Larned. the present holder
Of the tennis championship. will defend
his title against Dohertys challenge to-
morrow. After Whitmans decisive vic
tory over Doherty in the Davis cup event
at Bay Ridge, IL was generally expected
that he would score today or put up a
hard fight But. as IN every other match
which the Englishmen have played. II
was the American who did the hard
work That Whitman, with all his ex-
perience, should have been duped into
playing a running game was one OF the
surprises of the day while another was
his inability to stand the pace.
Neither the sets nor the game were
long, but after three sets. with a total
OF twenty-five games, had been played,
the American pulled up winded and ex-
hausted. and the seven-minute intermis-
sion was not long enough for him to
catch his breath or regain his strength.
In points Doherty made a total of III.
to Whitmans SO, while the Englishman
had the advance in place shots and some
less errors. The first set went 10 the
Englishman with little opposition from
Whitman. In the second Whitman fair
~ smothered Doherty by dazzling work
at the net and this brilliancy led many
to forget that his errors were also num-
erous. After closing this set in fine
hurst OF play everyone seemed 10 have
perfect confidence in the American.
For few games in the third set Whit
man fully justified this confidence. But
all this time he was on the run and Do
herty did not miss a single opportunity
TO give him a chance at the balls. A
dozen times ,the Englishman had every
chance to effectively kill balls. but he de-
liberately threw away these chances and
sent them back with so little speed that
Whitman by hard running could just
reach them. 1t mattered little TO Doher-
" whether his opponent returned them
or not. Then il was seen that Whitman
was fast becoming winded and IT, end
Of the match practically was in sight
Whitman tried TO rally. but after deuce
had been called three times he collapsed.
Doherty at once jumped in and took
the set, and after that. the match.

campb.l Method OF Soil Culture.

Campbell Method of Soil Culture.
A few years ago the Campbell meth
cd of corn culture made quite a stir
in the country. and 1t was claimed that
a revolution In soil tillage was immi-
nent. The method was tried quite ex
tensively in different states and at the
experiment station. Interest in It
waned and gradually it dropped out of
sight. Recently, however, the writer
in talking with Professor Cottrell of
the Kansas Experiment Station
learned that the Campbell method Is
still in use there and Is giving excel
lent results. Especially was this true
last year when the drouth was SO ex-
tensive that 1t annihilated crops grown
by other methods. The Campbell meth
cd necessitates the use of a disked
roller on the soil. the disks sinking
into the ground and packing the soil
some inches below the surface, but
leaving the top of the soil In q state
| of looseness that serves as dust
mulch The theory is that the dust
mulch on top and the packed soil be-
| low tend to hold the moisture and to
give 1t OFF only by way of the plant
roots. Professor Cottrell says that un.
der this system it has been found pos
sible to raise crops with much less
than the average rainfall even in Kan.

A Nasty Practice.

A nasty practice is what the Chicago
Inter Ocean calls the pasting of re-
peated layers of wall paper, one upon
another, thus covering up the filth and
germs of disease that may be propa-
gated in the very absorbent and de-
caying mass of -four paste, paper.
animal glue, colors, etc.
They give opinions of eminent
health officers and sanitarians, urging
that such practice should be stopped
by legal enactment, and also take oc-
casion to say that these sanitarians
recommend Alabastine as a durable,
pure and sanitary coating for walls.
The Inter Ocean says: This Is a
very important question. and. as II
costs nothing to avoid this danger,
why take any chances|
How much of the alarming spread
of smallpox and other diseases may be
due to unsanitary wall coverings?
