Receipts Included Only a Few
Steers, Mostly of Inferior
Quality
HOGS ADVANCE FIVE To- TEN
There Was Light Run in That Mar
ket, But Little Trading, the Only
Support Being Given by Shippers
Sheep Offerings Lack ouaIity-sIow
and Steady.

Chicago, Dec. 24-Cattle were weak
ahho receipts were but 1000. The run
contained but few steers, and these
were mostly of an inferior quality, for
which there was but little demand.
All the markets in the country are
loaded with poultry and game, and
packers are having much difficulty in
getting rid of beef. They say their
coolers are full to the limit and they
have not been able to move the prod
uct freely for week. The situation
is bad in the east for the same reason.
Hogs.
On a light run, prices advanced so
10c, but there was little trading, ship
pers giving the only support.
The country is trimming its sales
to suit the gale generated by the pack
ers. If hogs are to be put on a scent
basis the country is evidently deter
mined not to be a party to it. The set
tied policy of the packers = and this
all of them-is to do no scramb-
ling for hogs. They realize that they
will get what the country has before
the season is over and an understand
ing appears to exist that the market is
not to be bid up for the purpose of
putting product away in cellars. If the
winter packing season is to develop a
shortage it will be distributed pro rata
among the principal killers in the
trade.
Sheep.
Sheep were slow and steady, and Of
ferings lacked quality.

stocker and Feeder Demand.

Chicago, Dec. 24.-Demand for stock
ers and feeders recently has been quite
satisfactory where quality was good.
Buyers have put a good deal of force
On the quality, realizing that good
steers were a better investment at rel
atively high prices than common ones
ait low rates. The price of beef is a
strong factor at this time in deterlnin
ing feeder selections. The higher the
price of corn the more careful the feed
er is to what kind of animals he gives
it to- Realizing that it does not take
any more corn to feed a good steer
than a scrub results from the high
class animal are so much more salts
factory that at this time buyers do not
want to fool away their time nor put
their corn into an uncertain proposition.
A very large percentage of the feeding
steers bought lately have gone east.
Most of the good feeders have landed
in Ohio and it is claimed that feeding
in that state will be about up to the
normal in volume compared with other
years. There were good many lighter
steers sent to PENNSYLVANIA before the
foot and mouth scare, but since then
shipments have been modified.

Some EnoIish "BuIIs."

Some excellent bulls are credited to
William Arolin, who was a London po-
lice judge in the '3Cs of the last cen
fury He once remarked to counsel:
IF you can show precisely at what mo-
ment the otrense was committed, and
prove that the prisoner was not there
when he did it he could not possibly
have done it," And he sagely added:
'sWe cannot divest ourselves of COM
mon sense in a court of justice" OF a
similar character was an axiom he
once delivered himself of. which has
been maliciously fathered on many
other occupants of the bench: eff ever
there was case of clearer evidence
than this case, this case is that case. /"

[fion Of witnesses and the framing of
plans for the government was w. A.
Ryan, special agent of the interstate
commerce commission.
The first information that there was
evidence lying loose against the pack
ers and the railroads doing business
in Packington is said to have come
from agents of the commission.
The commission, however, is con-
cerned with violations of the rate and
rebate laws only. The grand jury is
not confined to these things 1t will
look also into the question of the vio-
lation of the antitrust laws.
Council for Armour & Co., Swift e.
Co, and the Schwarzschild & Sulz-
berger company did not betray any
anxiety over the situation. They have
been aware of the issuance of the sub
poenas and the fact that an investi
CATION was on, but they appear to take
it for granted that it lies only against
Norris & Co. on the rebate and false
claim charges.
Attorney John S. Miller, who acted
as counsel in chief for the packers dur
ing their trial, was not called into con-
ference.
The grand jury will adjourn at noon
today until Monday. At that time the
investigation will be taken up in earn

SOUTH TAUGHT A LESSON.
one-mue Farmers Made AsricuIturists
and Republicans.

| Washington, Dec. 24.-One of the
m ost fascinating stories to come out OF
| that camp of enthusiasts, the depart
m,snt of agriculture, is that relating
how the one-mule farmers of the south
are being transformed into two-mule
farmers. 1t is a story rosy with prom
ise and bound to be national in it's
effects. And it is one of the potent
reasons for MIR. Tafts belief that In
1912 he will carry some of the south
Ner,l states.
The major general of this movement
fo: the education of the farmers of the
south is S. A. Knapp of Louisiana.
Knapp was an ordinarily prosperous
Individual in one Of the middle western
states when he happened to visit the
great swamp belt facing the Gulf of
Mexico and to perceive the possibilities
there concealed. He bought an area of
tn, swamp for about cents an acre,
drained it, devoted it to rice culture,
and then found it worth at least 5000
an acre in any mans money. Today
he is millionaire and his example IN
re.laiming swamps was so freely fol-
lowed that he became convinced that
sthe southern people needed nothing but
a good example u Take Care VI llAeM
selves.
AT this point he and Secretary Wilson
came together with the result that this
rich and successful man agreed to de-
vore some years of his life to the edu-
cation of the one-mule farmer of the
south, and to do 1t by example He
organized in the department of agri-
culture what he called the Farmers
Co operative Demonstration Work,
and with it has been causing a revolu-
tio,a He has sent agents thru the
south to show a few of the farmers In
each community how to farm. And
pre- sently HIS example was followed by
the neighbors and all became prosper
Gus; and highly disposed to think well
of the republican administration at
Washington.

pressed.
Sick kidneys weaken the body thru
the continual drainage of life-giving
albumen from the blood into the urine,
and the substitution of poisonous uric
acid that goes broadcast thru the sys-
tenn, sowing the seeds of disease. Loss
of albumen causes weakness, languor
depression. Uric poisoning causes
rheumatic pain. nervousness, nausea,
cricks in the back. gravel and kidney
stones. The proper treatment is a
kidney treatment, and the best remedy
is Doan's Kidney Pills. Great Mar
shalltown cures prove it.

203ls South First street. Marshalltown,
Iowa, says: II am glad to express my

The Debs Crow.

Mrs. Isaac l.. Rice, the brilliant lead
or of the anti-noise crusade, has
canned noises, as she quantity calls
quent addresses. Mrs. Rice, that is to
say, demonstrates with actual phono-
graphic records the hideous street din
of New York.
Discussing the other day animal
notes.-the night noise of prowling cats
the sunrise noise of roosters kept in
alleys-Mrs. Rice said:
IAN anti-noise man got the better of
an inconsiderate socialist last month.
1t is a queer story.
The anti-noise man, nervous jour-
nalist. lives in Brooklyn fiat. and the
socialist, the landlord lives below him.
The socialist kept talking crow-you
know crows talk if their tongues are
split, and this bird, from its cage on
the balcony, roared all day long:
"'Hurrah for Debs! Hurrah for
Debs!'
.'All thru the presidential campaign
the journalist got no sleep on account
of the crows socialisttic cheers. Tho
no great foe to socialism, he came to
loathe the very thought of Debs:
He tried to buy the crow, offering as
much as $25 for it. In vain. He be-
sought it's owner to keep it indoors. In
vain This unsocial socialist was too
proud of his crow to curtail moment
of it's noisy Debs enthusiasm.
The journalist was afraid to kill or
steal the crow lest the owner, discov-
ering his guilt, turn him out of the flat
house. He did, instead, a willy thing.
He went to a pet stock dealer,
bought crow that couldn't say word,
and the next day, watching his chance,
substituted the dumb bird for the To-
quacious one.
THE journalist met the socialist in a
cigar store the other day.
Don't you ever regret he said,
that you refused my liberal offer for
your talking crow
".No, street. exclaimed the socialist
warmly. I value that bird more than
ever now. Why, man would you be-
live it? Ever since the defeat of Eu-
gene V. Debs the crow HASN'T opened
his lips?"

Out or Order.
(Success Magazine).

Champ Clark loves to tell of how in
the heat of a debate Congressman
Johnson, of Indiana, called nIllinois
representative jackass. The express
sion was unparliamentary, and in re-
traction Johnson said:
while I withdraw the unfortunate
word, Mr.. Speaker, must insist that
the gentleman from Illinois is out of
order"
How am out of order?" yelled the
man from Illinois.
Probably a veterinary surgeon could
tell you,'' answered Johnson, and that
was parliamentary enough to stay on
the record.
