HOG MARKET
SHADE LOWER
Receipts Were Liberal for a
Friday
TOP PRICE WAS $500
Business Was Slow in the
Cattle Section

Hog receipts were liberal yesterday for
Friday. Lack of competition made the
market a shade lower. There were about
1000 hogs on sale. Armour kicked on
light hogs and took only enc car load
Dolds buyer had business away from
the yards and bought none. Cudahy came
manfully 10 the rescue and bought 500
hogs and about go were unsold when the
market closed. The bulk Of the offerings
were mixed hogs, running 10 light and
pig weights, and in some cases sellers
were compelled to sort out in order to
effect a sale. Some Of the quotations
seem low, but the hogs in about every
instance sold on their merits anG the
lower priced sales were in line with the
best. The commission men and shippers
give Cudahy credit for being z fair buyer
and never taking advantage Of unfavor-
able situations TO squeeze them. He pays
a fair price whether ne wants one hog
or d thousand.

Before commencing the actual pack.
ing of trunk it is a very good plan to
collect in one room and in plain view
everything that is to be placed in the
trunk. You will then see exactly what
you have to find accommodation for,
and nothing will be forgotten.
Something soft and fiat should pave
the trunk-a warm petticoat, which
you may or may not require, is suitable
for this purpose. On this anything fiat
and heavy should be laid, remembering
that only necessaries should be taken
if weight is consideration. The writ
ing case also occupies this layer, and
any small spaces can be filled up with
rolled stockings and other small OBJ
jects.
The boots and shoes, each in . hol.
land bag, may come next, and form q
layer of their own, which can be
| shared with the brush and comb and
sponge bag.
Then linen and wooden underwear,
between which any jewelry you may
be taking can be placed; also your hand
glass, scent bottles, or anything else
of breakable nature.
The dress skirts come next, and
should be folded at the hips, so as to get
as much length as they can. Do not
turn them inside out. Jackets and
capes follow, the former lying fiat on
their backs, with the sleeves laid
across their fronts. Capes should be
spread out as much as possible.
The tray is reserved for hats, dress
bodices and skirts, and light, small
things, such as wells and neckties.
The bodices will repay any trouble
spent upon them in the way of stufing
with crumpled paper by emerging un.
crushed at the end of the journey.
Over all the things in the tray sof+
towel should be spread.
Long sash ends, if attached to the
bodices, should be rolled up, and bow
loops ought to be stuffed with balls Of
paper.
Gloves are laid fiat.
If the hats are trimmed with up
standing feathers it is better to take
them out and let them travel fiat.
Wells can be rolled and collars p cked
inside of hat CROWNS.
DO not attempt to squeeze your
things into trunk too small for them;
but, on the other hand, the trunk should
not be too roomy, or the contents will
shake about and run great risk of dam.
