MAKING HOGS FAT.

Weiaht is Being Put On At Rapid
Rate in Missouri River Territory.
Chicago, Nov. 23.-"Hogs dn Missou-
ri river territory are putting on weight
at remarkable pace" said J. W..
Murphy, of Omaha, who was mere
looking over the market. Nebraska
and western Iowa never made as much
pork in as short period or made 1T
as cheap. Weather has been superb
and corn quality is equally good. 1t
has been fed to hogs unsparingly with
out bad results
"Our hogs are already OF better
quality than those / see here, but 80
days, hence there will be decided
increase in weights and further Inn
provement in quality. There will be
an abundance of hogs. In the Missouri
river valley cattle feeding is on
smaller scale than last year and my
impression is that growers will make
hogs fat as they have plenty Of corn.
They must be prepared to take close
around 4 cents in the country, how
ever. Breaks from present prices are
likely to hold them back as long as
health keeps good, as with the market
on its present basis growers believe
hogs are worth the money and that
they have nothing to lose by holding
them, in fact added gain makes the
stock that much more valuable. This
is one reason why packers will exper-
fence the necessity of bidding for a
supply and also why heavy run OF
hogs late in the winter is not improb-
able

LAMBS ON PEA FEED.
Farmers Handling 125,ooo Lambs In
The San Luis Valley.


The San Luis Valley.
r. Sylvester, senior member OF the
Colorado sheep feeding firm of Sylves-
ter e. Sons, in the San Luis valley
was recently in Kansas City, and TO
the Drovers' Telegram said Of sheep
feeding in his part Of the state:
II think I am safe In saying there
are fully $4,000 sheep and lambs on
feed In our district Several deliver
les on contract are to be made this
week and that will about finish up the
number to be brought in this fall. We
are handling $4,000, nearly all lambs,
ourselves, and the other firms have the
rest Most of them have gone to
Mexico and Arizona for their feeders,
but this year we went north and
bought practically all of ours from the
Oregon shepherds. Very few OF the
feeders are sheep. nearly all being
lambs. The aged sheep are being held
over and will not be fattened for mar
ket.
about eight years ago we started In
on the experiment Of raising the COM
mon white Canada pea (some call 1t
the Mexican pea) to feed our sheep,
and have found it the best thing yet
They grow readily on our soil, and
when. the first good frost comes along
toward the first Of october, they usu-
ally ripen so we can turn the sheep In
on the field. They do not waste bit
of feed and will even dig down in the
dirt for a pea they have stepped on and
covered. The pea seems to be just
the thing for them, and when turned
on the field by the first Of october they
are usually ready to move toward mar
ket In January. Last year every far
mer who could get the seed planted a
patch Of peas and this has helped the
demand for feeding sheep.
by feeding the sheep on our fields
we have so enriched the ground and
increased the fertility that the yield
BILE what 1T was five years ago. A field
on which we raised twenty bushels of
wheat to the acre five years ago, and
on which we have fed sheep ever since
was sown in wheat this year and av-
eraged forty-eight bushels. Other
crops have done as well. plowed up
q feeding field the past year and PLAN
ted 100 acres of it in potatoes in order
to get the best value out of it could
i now have 10000 sacks of potatoes on
hand and am trying while here to sell
the crop The other farms where
sheep have been fed have made just
as much improvement, and the in
crease in crops has doubled the value
of the land. Land is easy to sell at
$40 per acre if one wants to sell it, but
It will be worth 800 before many
years, and most of us prefer holding it
for that time. We have plenty of
water for irrigating purposes and the
climate is as good as can be found"

Grain Freight Differential Case
Likely to Be Carried Over
to Next Session
FOR PHILADELPHIA.
Frank NealI Insists That Without Diff
ferentiaI, Export Trade of That
City Would be Ruined-CIaims This
and Other Ports Were Disseminated
Against in Rates.

| Philadelphia, Pa, Nov 23.-There
appears to be little likelihood that
| Phlladelpha's side of the grain freight
differential case will be concluded
during the present sessions of the In
terstate commerce commission. Chair
man Knapp has announced that the
controversy would again he taken UP
by the commission In Washington at
date to be decided later.
If Philadelphia's testimony in It's ef-
forts to maintain the differential Is
not all in by tonight, when the pres
ent sessions will be concluded, the re-
mainder Of the local witnesses will be
asked to appear before the commission
at It's next meeting In Washington
Baltimore and Boston will also be
heard at that time.
Frank Neall, senior member of the
| shipping firm of Peter Wright e. Sons
who went on the stand Monday, was
the only witness during yesterday $
session.
Attorney Fairchild in cross examln-
ing Mr.. Neall asked the witness II he
+! was aware that during a portion OF the
year 1904 there had been decrease
in the export trade from the port OF
New York. He then quoted statistics
showing that In two months OF th2
current year New York's exports
showed decrease of rs per cent; Phil
| adelphia a decrease Of S per cent. ana
Baltimore an Increase Of AZ per cent.
| Mr.. Fatrchild endeavored to draw an
admission from Mr. Neall that the
differential is entirely unfair to New
York. but the witness insisted thai
without the differential the export
trade OF this city would be ruined. one
Of the reasons for the establishment
Of the differential, he said, was tna'
the various ports might be placed on
an equality and thus prevent rate
wars.
Mr.. Neall went into statistics IN an
endeavor to show that this city and
several other ports were discriminat-
ed against in rates In the interest OF
New York.
The saving to the shipper by send
ing his grain by the way of New York
he claimed, amounted to cents on the
100 pounds For some unaccountable
| reas on, he said, the cost Of hiring bar
ges in the New York harbor Is con-
siderably less than in this city. Here
1t costs So day, while the figure in
the metropolis is much lower.
'If New York" asked Commissioner
Prouty, were to spend $100,00O,0o0 on
the Erie canal, and as result OF TINS
open up an avenue, whereby the great
portion of the grain from the wesl
would flow there do you think 1T woulo
be fair to have another readjustmen'
of the rates SO that Philadelphia would
be able to compete?"
The witness answered In the mega
tive.
"what is the purpose of the differ
entail ?" asked Mr.. Fairfield.
ITS great purpose" answered Mr.
Neall, sis to recognize the longer ane
more difficult ocean haul to Philadel-
phia."
