demand for feeders as there is at the

that cattle values will so higher to keep

seems to be plenty who are willing to
take h risk. 1t is 10 often that the
best feeding steers sell within so cents
of the top of the fat catt'e market, but
such is the case now. Generally buy
ers want a margin of at least a dollar,

cattle are on feed east of Chicago as
usual, n as feed was abundant last
year and the prospects a"e SO good this
year, farmers can not resist the temp

The carpenters. the bricklayers, the
men VINO drive the cabs.
All join in resolutions that their enc
mics are 'scabs."
There's been a strike in Holland, where
storks visit every home,
But the latest and the greatest is the
teamsters' strike in Rome.
Old Caius Julius Rafferty,, who drives a
sorrel plug,
Told young Demetrius Flanagan, he of
of the classic mug,
That capital and wrong We're right to.
gether, check by jowl.
20, Temporal" Demetrius said; well,
let us make Rome howl
Then from two Latin schooners they
blew sundry specks of foam
And this was the beginning of the
teamsterS' strike in Rome.
Terminus Cassius Doogan sent his
horses to the hay;
j. Cicero McFadden hled himself to a
buffet;
Horatius Quidnunc Casey took his bus
right eff the street,
And played a game of ~schauskopf with
the copper on the beat.
Old Cataline Equus Flynn, he of the
foxy dome,
Was made high muckalorum of the
transfers strike in Rome.
Hall Gaines Eternal City, sitting on its
seven hills,
Now knows the meaning of a strike
and its resultant ills.
No frisky young patrician, with a Choir
us girl In tow,
Can get a hack to take him o'er the
Tiber from the show,
And drummerS who were wont to ride,
now hit the Latin loan;
This is the mournful ballad Of the
teamsters' strike in Rome.
