Stockers and Feeders.

little better tone has developed in
the stocker and feeder market this
week owing to the better inquiry
from the outside. The low scale of
prices has loosened things up lit
tie in the country, and more competi-
ton was noted in the trade. Receipts
were also lighter. and so local traders
have been able to make pretty fair
cleanup. Most of the holdings are
common to medium stockers, there
being very few good strong weight
feeders available. The good stockers
are taken quite readily but the com
mon stuff is generally neglected. The
bulk of the 500 and 750lb stockers
sold at s3.40M3.15. with better kinds al
s4 and the common at s2.60m3. Choice
selected feeders were quotable around

Among his friends and intimates
William H. Taft is renowned as a
story teller. He Enjoys hearing good
story as much as ha delights to re-
count one. He is exceedingly prone
to illustrate a point in an argument
with an anecdote. Most of Mr.. Taft's
stories are the result of personal ex-
perience His long service at the bar
and on the bench of the United States
court provided him with many of his
best stories The following examples
are furnished from the memory of a

crop report from along the lines OF the
Northwestern road west of Winona
shows weather conditions during the
week to have been changeable.
''Cn July IS and 20 rust began
working on late wheat in the North
Jim valley in South Dakota. and it is
very uniform in Sphinx, Brown and Pot
ter counties, South Dakota. We failed
to find any black rust penetration on
the stalk in single instance. but the
black rust. was on the leaves and stalk
covering, and the rust on the stalk be-
low the head was not in the black
stage, but was the red spore that had
become affected and began work and
had been checked by change in wealth
er before it had penetrated the stalk
or reached the black stage, and when
ii had lodged on the stalk had dead
ened or glazed the stalk. In every in
stance the inside of the stalk was clear
and green to a point where it was
mature.
Wheat harvest is now general in
the Jim River valley, and IS per cent
of the wheat is mature and past dan
ger prior to rust dates.
You will note we do not consider
damage by black rust In South Dakota,

it would have been different. 1t came

Receipts We're Principally Made
Up OF Butcher Cattle and
Common Steers
DECLINE IN HOG MARKET
Liberal Receipts and Lack of Demand
Force Prices Five to Ten Cents
CONCENTRATIONS Very Bearish.-
Common and Medium Lambs Prove
Drug on the Sheep Market.

Chicago, Aug. 7.-CattIe were NOM
inally steady and extremely dull The
major portion of receipts We're made
up of butcher cattle and common
steers, for which there was strong de-
mand.
Common cattle has been seriously
neglected, all week, for the supply OF
that class of steers was larger than
the demand required. Hot weather
and buyers are not loading up with a
greater quantity than they think they
can dispose Of readily. While the
western cattle are coming, natives of
similar quality will have to sell on a
range basis. There are more steers
selling at s4O0@5.0O now than at any
time this season, and many of the light
short-fed steers are a dollar lower
than a month ago. The supply of cat
tie is lacking in variety.
Hogs.
Liberal receipts and lack of demand
brought about decline of @10c.
Shipping orders were scarce, and pack
ers were exceedingly bearish.
The day run was in round
numbers $4,000, which is $4,000 more
last week, and yet the market is how
ering close around where it was then.
Supply this week, both here and in the
west, is nearly up to what it was dur
ing the corresponding period of 1907.
Sheep.
Sheep We're weak and inactive. Com
mon and medium lambs We're so plen-
tiful that they were practically a
drug on the market
A heavy supply has been the de-
moralizing influence this week. In four
days receipts were about $4,000, or TO-
900 more than last week and $4,000 in
excess of a year ago.
Feeders have had least of the de-
cline. Lambs have been very scarce
and are quotable at S5.25GD5.50. Feed
ing sheep and yearlings have lost a lit
tie ground.
A year ago native lambs sold up to
$685. and westerns to $3.50. bulk of
lambs going at $7.00m760. Yearlings
were worth $6.250l6.50. sheep $3.50
900 and ewes, $3.50 @5.75.

'The Rothschilds push their strict
ness to the point of eccentricity. They
once had for agent here in New Or
leans fine fellow. They telegraphed
to this agent at a certain seasonto sell
their cotton holdings, but he knew the
price would go higher, and therefore
he didn't sell till four days later. In
consequence he melted an extra profit
of $4,000 for his firm.
when he sent the Rothschilds the
money and told them joyously what he
had done they returned the whole
amount, with a cold note that said:
The $4,000 you made by disobey-
ing our instructions is not ours, but
yours. Take it, Mr.. Blank, your suc-s
