Pork Prices Now Not Highest
Old Timers Can Remember Sale That Brought IA Cents Per
Pound and Were Bought by the Car Loads

between $1,000 and 10000 hogs one
night down at the old union station in
this city, paying John Harrison, Alex
Clark and John Worrel, old Hendricks
feeders who were the men on
other end of the deals.
Business Methods.
The method of transacting the bust
ness at that time differed greatly
from that of today. Then we bought
the live hogs and sold them to the
packers at dressed weight Hogs
would shrink about % per cent. I
would also receive q dollar a head
from the packers for the killing privi-
lege. At that time leaf lard, kettle
rendered. was selling at 14n15c a
pound, while scrap and grease lard was
at a lower figure. Hog products could
not be placed on the market as expe-
ditiously as during this generation.
The first shipment of hogs to be
packed by modern methods was re-
ceived by J. p. Squires 4 Co., at their
Boston plant forty-two years ago. That
marked a new epoch in the pork pack
ing industry. Before that time people
paid for sugar cured hams and were
satisfied that they were getting their
moneys worth. Since that time var
ious receptions have been played on
the public

"The lowest price ever paid for
hogs was in 1S47. That year my
father drove one thousand hogs from
Ind, to Cincinnati, dis
lance of 80 miles. I do not remember
the exact price, but 1t was less than
1925. The lowest price of which have
definite knowledge was paid in the fall
of 1881 or 1882. A sort of panic then
was aroused among the hog raisers
and the pens at the different markets
were kept filled for some time. That
year on Thanksgiving day, I bought
three trainloads Of hogs from Morgan
county feeder by he name of Morn
ingstar for the average price of 1886
q hundred. The extreme top price for
this lot was $3.50, paid for lot OF ex-
ira fancy stock.
The steady growth in the popula-
ton of the country, forming steady
increase in the outlet for all pork pro-
ducts has given the feeders a better
market for their stock and the deal
ers a higher price for their meats. I
do not believe we will have any more
cheap hogs. at least not soon. I be-
lieve prices of hogs will rule high for
some time because Of the light feed
ing and the good demand Farmers
and feeders can profitably feed their
corn to their hogs; yes. even wheat at
its present price would make good
profit. Corn fed to hogs now would
net the feeder 81 bushel.

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE
Honolulu People Should Learn to De-
tect the Approach Of Kidney
Disease.

The symptoms of kidney trouble are
so unmistakable that they leave no
ground for doubt. Sick kidneys ex-
crete a thick, cloudy, offensive urine,
full of sediment, irregular of passage
or attended by sensation of scald-
ing. The back aches constantly, head
aches and dizzy spells may occur and
the victim is often weighed down by
feeling of languor and fatigue. Ne
glect these warnings and there is dan
ger of dropsy, Bright disease, OF
diabetes. Any one Of these symptoms
is warning enough to begin treating
the kidneys at once. Delay often
proves fatal.
You can use no better remedy than
Doan s Backache Kidney Pills. Here s

learns of ner theft suspects her Of a
graver fault, that of faithfulness; and
NJ. Godcin, the skilled detective whose
deductions i'll regard to the theft fall

tional actress and in the boudor scenes
in the second act where, after she has
confessed her theft her husband I'M

was particularly strong. Maurice
Drew catches in admirable manner
the spirit of the kindly millionaire and
loving father and is at his best in the
scenes where after hoping against hope
he feels himself compelled to admit his
sons guilt. F. B. Hersome is quite the
conventional detective and his deduc-
tons in view of what are the real facts
in the case become more and more
amusing as the play progresses. Wyr-
ley Birch as Fernand LagradeS takes
his part well and brings out the con-
trast strongly between the calloW
youth in the first act and the young
man Ct the last act, VINO has sacrificed
everything because of his love for a
woman. Florence Moves as Isabelle

wife. ever thoughtful of the welfare

formation of a loving husband to a
