BRAN ALWAYS HAS DAT HuLLs

In Prominent Iowa Towns-More
Pure Food Legislation.

Professor L. G.. Mchaelson, the
chemist of the .Ames experiment sta
ton, was in Marshalltown Monday In
specting all classes of livestock food
stufYs offered for sale at the various
feed stores in the city, and 1t was as
tonishing to know that he reports
adulterated feeds found in every one OF
the stores. He had just come from
DesI Moines, where he had inspected
thirty-two stores, and found adulter-
ated bran In all but one.
Professor Michaelson is making
tour of twenty Of the largest towns in
the state, securing evidence as to the
prevalence of adulteration in the
ground feeds sold at the feed stores. to
support, if possible, a movement to Sc
cure additional pure food legislation
which shall apply to stock foods the
same as the new law applies to other
foods.
According to the professors expert
ence bran is the feed most generally
adulterated, oat hulls, alfalfa and
screenings being found in almost every
sample He explains that middlings
and the high grade foods are seldom
ever adulterated, for the reason that
any foreign substance is easily detect
ed, but that shorts are nearly always
mixed with some inferior grain.
The prepared or continental foods
will also be examined and samples sent
to Ames for chemical analysis for their
food properties and to discover what
class Of grains of which they mostly
consist so as to determine the rela-
ton the price of 5000 to $1,000 per ton
bears to the grain prices Of $40 to SIS
per ton. 1t IL the conviction of the
chemists and experts at the Ames ex-
pertinent station that there is a most
exorbitant margin between the prices
asked for the prepared stock foods and
the cost of the grains and powders of
which they are composed.
Professor ,Michaelson's Forthcoming
report will be Of great interest to this
farmers of Iowa when his tour Of in
vestigation Is ended.

Demand Tame and the Small
Supply Was Sufficient For
All Needs
DECLINE IN THE HOG MARKET
scaIpers We're the Leaders in Today's
Bearish Operations and the Bad
Quality of Offerings Proved to be
An Additional Deterrent Factor =
Sheep Prices Were Steady.

Chicago, Oct observation-disclosures
were rather small, but as the demand
was tame, the supply was sufficient
for all needs, and sellers We're willing
to admit that they would be fortunate
If they succeeded in holding prices to
levels of the Monday market Ship
pers apparently did not have any ur-
gent orders, and 1t looked as If sellers
would have to place their hopes for
sales in packers. Receipts of western
cattle formed more than half the total
supply. The quality Of native offerings
was poor.
On top of last week. enormous mar
keting the run OF $4,000 Monday was
far above the actual requirements 81
slaughterers. The shippers, while tax
ing a fairly liberal volume, went at
their work rather indifferently and the
local buyers were quite Indifferent to-
ward any but choice steers during the
greater part Of the day. Export de-
mand was disappointingly small. and
salesman had little satisfaction In find
ing an outlet thru this source me
markets abroad have long been in poor
shape and the exporters claim they
have lost too heavily in the seasons
operations to enable them to get into
the trade now on very liberal scale,
hogs.
In a general way, the Initial trade
looked Toe lower than the best time
of the previous session, scalpers being
the leaders in bearish operations. The
quality of hogs was bad, this proving
a deterrent factor.
Traders say packers are going to buy
hogs cheaper this week if they get a
run and it is the season for an ex-
banding movement. If they succeed
in putting the market on "a bR to D.
cent basis they will probably be salts
fled for awhile. Late last week a
range of s620@6.40 took most of the
hogs, range that is practically 81 per
cwt higher than year ago. The OBJ
iective point is now Sc for packing
droyes. but within the next two
months the spread in prices will come
closer together. The trade is looking
for normal supply and there is
nothing to justify present high prices
except increased consumption. One
prop that will soon be knocked out
from under the market is an urgent
eastern demand. From now on ship
pers will be able TO buy their hogs
closer to home.
Sheep.
After very unsatisfactory action OF
lambs the previous session. sellers
were not looking for advances, ana
were willing to let go at steady prices.
Good lambs We're scarce. Sheep held
at steady prices.
