The Hoq Situation.

The packers have shown their hand
this week and demonstrated that they
controlled the whip hand in spite of
the fact that total marketing was
about 5000 smaller than the prev

week
1t was plainly evident from the atti-
tude of the buyers daily that the pack

prices and it is also quite plain that
they will dominate the market in the
nearby future should supplies be
above actual trade requirements.

This Weeks Cattle Trade.

"A big drop is noted in cattle values
compared with one week ago. and
there is q decidedly weak tone to the
situation at this time. The bulk of
plain to choice steers stand 25@40c
lower than last week while instances
of 50@75c loss have been noted in
comparison with sales at the high
point two weeks ago. Demand of
late has been about as weak as it was
keen two weeks ago, and all of the
bullish enthusiasm then rampant in
the trade has been lost.
Even the choice steers have lately
gone mostly 25c lower than a week
ago The receipts have been of ex-
cessive volume In five days this week
on top of last weeks enormous supply
of nearly 10000 the offerings have
choked beef channels badly.
Cattle at $5.25@6.25 have been hit
the hardest, but these were the grades
selling relatively highest a few weeks
ago. tho the fact that even the prime
ones landing up to $3.50 have gone
lower should afford country shippers
pretty good idea of the extent of
the bearish campaign which slaught-
erers are now waging. The decidedly
weak trade for natives is in wide con-
trast to the keenness in and higher
prices being paid for western rangers,
which latter class sell at the highest
level in several years. AS a result of
the falling off in values for natives
and advancing prices for the rangers
the scale of prices for the two classes
is drawing closer together than noted
in several years.
General quality of natives has been
fairly good during the week and the
offerings have included a fair supply
of prime grades at $6.S5M725; tops
made $3.50. Most choice shipping
steers sold at $6.15@6.60. Bulk of
buying for export was at $3.50 $3.50
and the packers purchased medium
to good beef steers largely at s4.S5 q
$50, while plain to fair light grassy
killers went at $4.50@4.S0, and the
poor feshed kinds down to $500 and
under.
Heavy feeding steers still command
good prices. the market this week rul-
ing steady to hrmer, tho there is slow
demand for light stockers and bulk
have gone 1Oc off from week ago.
Eastern buyers have been the chief
patrons of the trade. Nearby feed
ers were mainly after good to choice
heavy feeders and bought most of
them at So s504.15. while paying up to
$3.50 for a strictly choice kind.

GROUND BONE AS FEED.
It Is Essential to the Well-Being Of
the Poutry-Grind the
Bones.

1t is surprising that so many fresh
bones are allowed to go to waste on
our farms when they are particularly
adapted for poultry feed. Fresh bone
contains nitrogen, phosphorus and
lime in considerable quantities The
lime Is useful in the. shells of the
eggs, but this is the least important
thing connected with the feeding of
bones. The line might be supplied in
ole plaster. But the phosphorus in
the bones constitutes a very important
element of food and this phosphorus
goes to build up the bones in growing
fowls. 1t is more useful for growing
fowls than for mature fowls, but Is
serviceable for both. The bones also
contain considerable qualities OF nj
trogen, and this nitrogen goes to
make muscle. The only way that a
farmer can use bones, says the Farm
ers' Review, is to buy a bone mill by
which they can be reduced to very
fine condition with small effort. We
have heard people complain that It
required too much muscular effort to
grind bones. But this was true largely
long time ago. Bone grinding mills
have now been perfected to such an ex-
tent that little effort is required. Every
farmer should keep enough fowls to
justify him in buying a bone mill.
which can be purchased for a very few
dollars. Fowls crave food of this kind
both summer and winter.

EASILY MADE HENS NEST
1 place my nests SO that the bottom
of the nest is two or 21a feet from the
floor, thus saving floor space A 1x2-
inch strip fastened, perch like, about
six inches in front of nests is very con-
venient for hen that wants to lay. as
she can pass along on it until she
comes to vacant nest. A board of
nearly the width and of the same
length as the top and hinged to lower
edge of top (this is not given in the
drawing) can be laid back during the
day, leaving the nests open, and let
down at evening, closing the nests and
then the hens have just one place to
roost and that where they belong, on
their perches.
Any number of nests in a set can be
made, suiting the number to the con-
venient wall space. Mine vary from
three to six or about Is nests in all, in
each of my two buildings. If plenty of
nests are provided and they are kept
clean, and enticing nest material and
china nest eggs are used, hens that
have range will seldom steal their
nests away.

DAVID AND

By cosMo HAMILTON
(oopyrIehs, By Joseph 3. BOwles.)

Glynde and Hilgay, whose friendship
puts that of David and Jonathan to
the right about, were fated to be pit
ted against each other in everything.
They cemented their friendship by
backing each others eyes when
Glynde was nine and Hilgay ten. They
both played cricket Hilgay's most
brilliant innings for Cambridge was
stopped at SO by magnificent catch
by Glynde. of the Oxford eleven.
Naturally enough, 1t came to pass
that Glynde and Hilgay fell in love
with the same girl. At least, that is
only my way of putting it. Glynde
and Hilgay would tell you, If they
liked you well enough to discuss the
matter with you, that they were in
love with the only girl in the world.
Men in love are never accurate.
There was, to both of them, a touch
of tragedy about this last coincidence.
They were dining in town together on
an off evening to see the Man of
Many Collars" at the Alhambra after
wards.
With something of blatancy Hilgay
had said. Jack, I'm in love-

absurd? Good heavens, why?" said
Hilgay.
Because I am, too, and we're dead
certain to be in love with the same
girl"
A little chilled silence fell upon the
two men. For a moment they sat
looking at each other, superstitious
horror in the eyes of both. Neither
| dared to ask what was her name.
Glynde waited for Hilgay to give the
name and Hilgay for Glynde. At las

caused by small leak. After anchor

Mr.. Perry cut one of his hands severely,
and it bled all night, but the job was
finally accomplished and the little boat
token on board, when it was found that
an eight-inch hole had been stove in
the planking near the bow.
The party was unable to attract the
attention of the keeper of Seguin light
or of the life-saving crew at Popham
Beach, SO revolver shots were fired in
the air, but the wind was in the wrong
direction to carry the sound ashore. In
an attempt to make a torch of cotton
waste and kerosene, the lighted waste
was blown into the cabin, where a
fierce fire was soon in progress.
There the party remained all night.
fearing any moment that their cables
would part and the craft be blown up
on the lodges only a few feet away.
Next morning the sea went down
somewhat, and patch was made on
the little tender by means of a rubber
coat. and Mr.. Perry skillfully padded
ashore at Popham, and Powers and
Fisher were rescued by the life-savine
crew.
The launch was towed to this city by
a steamer, and shows little effects OF
the perils of her maiden voyage. The
experience has cured Mr.. Perry of the
yachting fever for this summer, and he
is willing to sell his craft at once.

GREAT BUTTER RECORD.
What New York Farmer and His

Two Cows.

March and April, 635 pounds of butter
were made and sold, as follows: Sixty

pounds at Is cents; 35A pounds at 10

pounds at % cents; 29A pounds at "a
cents; 40 pounds at 25 cents. Total re-
ceived for 635 pounds of butter, $134. So.
To this may be added $20.22 from sale
of two veal calves which weighed 337
pounds, and sold for six cents a pound
Milk. cream and butter for a family of
two persons were reserved and of

One of the cows is Is years old,
cross-bred Jersey and Durham. The
other is her progeny, eight years old
