Representative Cattle Sales.
Below are given few of the repre-.
sentative cattle sales:
Chicago stockyards Notes.

Exporters had fair orders for the
$5.75@5.90 classes of steers, but there
were not many of such kinds offered.
Thirty-two head of choice 1100-ln
feeding steers sold late Wednesday al
$4.55, but they were good enough for
killers.
Few steers good enough to sell above
$6.25 Thursday.
A big curtailment in the receipts Of
fat lambs was responsible for the err
radically higher prices since Monday,
and yesterdays range was easily the
highest in over a week.
The average price of hogs here a
year ago yesterday - $4.74-was the
lowest day during the last eleven
months Of 1905.
Order buyers say they are not able
to get enough of the strong weight
class of feeders owing to the c<mpeti
ton from killers. The demand from
the east has been fairly good this week
and nearby feeders have also given
the trade fair support thus far tho the
general range of prices is not much
different from last week.

There Was Little To Create Ac-
tivity In Today's Market,
However
Shippers and soalpers Were Active in
the Early Observation-Disclosures Cattle
Not Much Changed During the Week
Lambs in Keen Demand-Sheep
Market Was Strong.

Chicago. Nov. 16.-Cattle-Th mar
little to create activity. No cattle of
good quality We're offered and trade
was practically confined to local buy
ers. Steers suffered some decline this
week thru liberality of offerings, tho
too toppy kinds such as now wanted
for the English holiday trade. selling
was fully as well as last week. But
cher cattle were not changed during
the week Medium cows, Gamers and
cutters are off 10m15 but other grades
are nearly steady.
The marketing in four days this
week at $1,000 stands the largest since
the week ending Oct %, while COM
pairing with 1920 in the same period
last week and 1881 a year ago. Lower
prices for most steers this week We're
to be expected under sucl big market
ing but the values are stiil but 15M 25c
under one week ago, and the Irregular
ity of the trade in the past few days
has accounted for some transactions in
even the medium grades Within range
of 10@15c of last weeks prices.
General tone of the market is natur-
ally less buoyant than n week ago. and
traders do not view the prospects for
the next week as very hourishing. Big
supplies are not needed and can only
work depression In the market. as the
beef coolers are now pretty well filled,
and with the car shortage acting as
hindrance to eastern shippers opera
tons the orders from rhat quarter. and
also from exporters, can hardly be ex-
pected to grow.
Hogs.
Shippers and scalpers made the early
market and their activity raised prices
about 5, on an average.
Sheep.
Sheep and lambs were in keen de.
mand, and all that had quality were
readily taken at an advance of 10.
Sheep were strong, tho the quality was
not good.

SKELETONS FOR SCHOOLS.
Professor of Anatomy at Iowa City Has
Good Plan.

Iowa City, Nov. 16.-Dr H. ]. Prem
tiss. professor of anatomy in the Col
lege of Medicine of the State Univer-
sity, not satisfied with havlrg his work
limited to the university, has Il plan
for extending the work into The high
schools of the state in a way that will
dodhtiess prove very popular
The plan is to make up complete sets
OF al the bones in the human body
a:ri to send them out TO lie high
srhccls as loan collections or use in
tue teaching of physiology. The kone"
are not articula ted into skela,ois. hut
are sent out in attractive Aa"lwtod
cases. containing compartments for the
different bones. The preparation af The
sets is done in the anatomical labo!a-
tories. and the cases, which will be or
naments in the high school laboratories
where they are placed, are neatly
marked as loan collections from those
laboratories.
Owing TO the large amount of WORK
involved in getting these bones ready.
at the beginning only a few sets = a
dozen or fifteen--will be sent out, bat
if they meet need in the high schools
more will be prepared and sent out
from time to time.

CUT OUT LIQUOR BUSINESS.
Charles City Druggists Abandon Liz.
uor Permits.


Charles City, Nov. 16.-Unable to live
up to the letter of the law; three drug
gists of this city have voluntary sur
rendered their permits to sell liquor for
medicinal purposes. The action was
entirely of their inception and no pres
sure was brought to bear on them. 1t
is understood that one reason why they
have quit is that their regular business
suffered if they refused patrons
drink when they asked for it. and so
the simplest way out was to stop SELL
ing at all.
The way of the druggist and other
liquor dealers seems beset with thorns.
Not long ago the John ElWanger COM
pany of Dubuque, pioneer wholesale
liquor dealers, We're caught by rev.
.enue agent covering up the whisky la
bells on barrels intended for interior
druggists. They were fined heavily and
the whisky confiscated. The reason
for the concealment is that druggists
do not wish to be known as receiving
much "booze," so the wholesaler is ask
ed to cover up the whisky stamp with
a label marked turpentine or some
+h;no else
