EAR HORSE TRADE.
Spring Demand for Farm Chunks
Broader Than General Supply.

Broader man 1eneral supply
Chicago, March 26.-General trade
fer the week has ruled uneven and has
been characterized by frequent fuc-
horses has been slower and the demand
for heavy commercial drafters mar
rover than a week ago. Conditions
of national importance operate to de-
press the demand for heavy business
offerings in the threatened coal min
ers' strike, which, if it materializes
will greatly affect all industries. Big
eastern sale stables are hesitatine
about stocking up for the normal
spring trade until the threatened Goa
miners strike is settled Big drafters
il the strike is precipitated will UNI
dcubtedly sell at considerably lower
figures than current quotations. The
rarmonizing of miners and operators
by reasonable concessions will be OF
incalculable benefit in the spring de-
mand for heavy business horses
which normally are entitled to sell at
better values than now prevail. Farm
chunks are active and prices firmer at
S11OM125 and upward to $3.50 for Sc
lect offerings. Small southerners are
in steady request at $60@115, with Sc
iect offerings commanding $120@135
Drivers have been in liberal evidence
and sold at the highest level thus fal
the current year at $160@37O. averag-
ing $500. General trade closed quiet
with broadcast demand for drivers
farm chunks and southerns.

Arranging for Horse Shows.
Omaha is to have a horse show next
fall unless all signs fail. This much
was decided on at the informal meet
ing Of the Horse Show directors at
the Omaha club. The annual meet
ing of the directors will be held in
about two weeks, at which time the
officers will be selected for the COM
ing year. Omaha was asked for the
dates of the week of October o. and
according to the present schedule it
looks as If the circuit would be COM
plete without any conflicting dates, as
was the case last year, when Omaha
had to compete with ST. Louis in the
bid for outside horses. AS planned
this season the circuit will be Louis
vile, st. Louis, Kansas City, Omaha
and Chicago, in the order named
This will make the circuit a COM
pletc circle with short jumps between
each city.

Marketing of vealers last week has
been the heaviest of the season to
date. Receipts We're $780,, against g.
G30 a week ago and 6,261 year ago.
Trade has escaped a repetition of the
severe pounding tactics practiced by
the buyers the previous week, al
though the general level of values is
down soc from last weeks closing
range. There has been fairly, good
call for the better grade vealers all
week, and in closing days. these made
firmer prices, although buyers dis
eliminated against plain light classes
and statesmen experienced difficulty in
getting rid of them. Good heavy
'.alyes met moderately active demand.
but the trade for plain and rough
kinds dragged all week. Most of the
choice vealers offered in late days
went at s6.75@7.0O. In early days
prime kinds sold up to $3.50, but this
price could not be realized later. Good
light calves sold at $6.00@6.25, and
poor kinds down to $5.25, while bulk Of
heavy vealers made $3.50@4.00, and
tailends ranged under $500.

few lots only going to the big local
killers.
Best western lambs were sent over
the scales Saturday morning at $685..
Probably these lambs would not have
brought any more than that at Fri
days low time, but the feeling was
weak and anything lacking in quality
was slightly lower. One lot of heavy
lambs assorted from the westerns sold
to an exporter at $685., the same as
was paid Friday. There were few ma
tiyes and no shorn lambs offered.

tack came on in August, when Lucy
Owings was visiting me at Seemore
cottage. You know she is an orphan.
l have thought for a long time that
she ought to marry and have home
of her own, instead Of living with her
guardian and his cranky housekeeper.
1t occurred to me that she and that
young Everett were just suited to each
other. l concluded that if they could
only be together for time they would
become engaged. So l sent him an in
vitation to come for a week or two to
Seemore cottage.
when 1 told Lucy that he was COM
ing she seemed very much startled.
She asked, at once, why, how did you
happen to invite him?
"She looked at me so searchingly
that l feared she saw through my lit
tie plan and l was quite embarrassed.
II couldn't tell whether she was
pleased or displeased at the idea of
his coming. When they met their
greeting was so stiff and formal that
1 began to think they disliked each
other. But reflected that If they did
it would be all the more credit to me
If 1 made them see each others good
qualities.
1.-The first evening young Everett
was there he and 1 sat on the porch
after Lucy and the children had gone
upstairs. took the opportunity to tell
him my opinion Of Lucy. OF course,

THE SEASONS.

When comes spring?
When blithest the robins sing,
And the violet has her hour?
Not till the hearts in flower
Is it spring.
When comes June?
At the time of the thrush's tune
OF all beauties below and above.
When reddens the rose of love,
Then comes June.
Autumn's when?
When grasses rasp in the fen,
And the face of the field is wan!
When joys are faded, gone.
Autumn's then.
Winter hoar.
Comes he with the storm-wind's roar
And all lorn Natures ruth?
IT'S winter when love and youth
Are no more.
