the Chamber Of Commerce at Wichita and

n seemed to be the rule with the hog
buyers TO take off 1e cents and Of the
cattle buyers To put it on. so that the
shipper who had mixed load just held
his own. There was some extra good
feeders on the market. and the butchers
thought they would make fair killers, and
that helped to boom the price on this
class OF stock. This market has never
before been so well provided with cattle
buyers. and there is no probability that
cattle sent TO this market viii fail TO sell
for q GOOD price Some of the country
shippers may think they can run past
this market and get as much for their
cattle as anybody else. but that is Just
where they are mistaken. The BUYERS
