Lately prices for heavy packing
hogs have been so much lower, rela-

ed that the sharp advance at the OPP

big lot of hogs that had been held back

Packers Want Cheaper Hogs.

[LiVestock World.l
This is the season when the packer.
from force of habit and policy,
pounds the hog market. The winter
packing season is approaching and he
prefers to begin the operations of that
period of activity on the lowest pos
sible basis.
The history of the game proves this,
but the present appears to be an alb
normal period. Hogs are not coming
forward as buyers would like to see
them, and there is every Indication
that the fall and winter crop is belat-
ed. All thru the strike the grower has
had every incentive to ship.
Good hogs have been, are now. and
probably will be. good property.

e. II. Princes Grain Letter.

Chicago, Sept. 14.-Wheat-There
big realizing in wheat with a varied
market. Values at the low point being
off about 2 cents, cables disappointing
and a weak curb caused gloomy feel
ing. Desire of many big longs to take
profits was felt Immediately much sell
ing being traced to Armour. Later on
further reports of miserable threshing
yields in the northwest steadied and
induced much purchasing, one report
had it that 240 acres produced but 1900
bushels. Cold weather in the northwest
had no effect as spring crop is practi-
cally harvested. The rapid advance of
s cents since Saturday caused much
hesitency.
Corn-General profit taking by longs
of yesterday and weakness of wheat
caused corn to ease off half to q of a
cent The decline being a surprise to
that part of the trade who figured on
a strong market on appearance of frost
in Kansas and Nebraska. Much of the
loss was regained after the trend in
wheat became steadier Several pri-
waite messages reported little damage
by the visit of the low temperatures to
corn belt and government report yes
terday declared that half of the crop
was out of frost danger. Shows es-
innate of 2,275,Ooo bushel crop
had no effect.
Oats-The market was steady in the
face of enormous receipts and piling up
at public warehouses. Local receipts
today We're 1s1 cars of which one
fourth We're contract.
Provisions-There was firm market
for provisions. altho advances are
small Trade was light and local. Bulk
of new trade is going in January
