Strong.

Chicago. Dec. 31.--There was en-
couraging strength in the closing trade
of the year, prices for cattle ruling 10
@l5 higher for good grades of steers,
and lower grades selling steady to 10
higher.
Buyers who had orders for the
choice kinds said they could not find
as many as they wanted 1t was a
week ago that under the influence OF
very light receipts the market took a
skyward jump, but since then the
tendency has been decidedly downward
and about % cents of the gain mas been
lost, except on the best qualities. The
condition of the trade is such that
heavy runs would not do the market
any good for the next few days.

much by packers. who have complained
of late of the inferior quality and
light weight chickering's.
Tha average weight OF hogs reaching
Chicago this week promises TO be
somewhat heavier than last creating
rne Impression that considerable clean
ing up of trash was done last week.
Sheep.
Some early sales of sheep We're
strong to 10 higher. but the keen edge
of recent trade was off before the close.
Trade sentiment Is divided as to the
future course of the market. The buy
ing side predicts an early break when
ever the movement from feed lots
swells sufficiently to justify raid. On
the other hand 1t is contended that no
considerable supply of NATIVE stock Is
likely to reach the market during the
winter months, that consumption is
good and that a lively export trade Is
in sight. Exporters contracts have
been made at figures jus.ifying expeet-
ancy of much higher range OF prices
all thru January and February.

The inlet of good cheer is best sup
piled by dredging the outlet.
Some men have such i'll manners
off their coats and put on their hob
nailed shoes.
SO many good words are hollow that
it is excusable to wish more of them
were corplllent.
People who are dragged into society
must fail If they cannot stand on their
own feet.
Now it Is the bill collector who pre-
sents the compliments of the season.
Before Christmas there seemed to
be no place for the bundles, and the
wonder is what become of the bulk of
things.
There are those high in authority

is nothing quite so delightful as a
