complete recovery Rhd closed Ac lower to
40 higher compared with final figures Of
the previous session. Corn and oats closed
steady and provisions firm.
Trading IN the wheat pit was dull during
the first hour and although sentiment was
bearish no great weakness was apparent.
The marked then tslumped sharply on gem
eral proiit taking, prompted by liberal
sales of the December delivery by a lead
ing elevator Interest. This selling brought
out numerous stop loss orders, the ex-
ecution of which caused additional weak
ness. Late in the aYV however, shorts
covered freely, resulting in a strong tone
at the finish. The range for the day on
December was between S1.01M and Sl.02h.
The market closed at almost the top notch,
with December at STOP.
Corn was affected by the late bulge in
wheat and closed moderately firm. with
final figures.

more than 5000 head less than the figures
for the corresponding day a year ago.

One Of the members Of the Inter
urban Railway Company said to the
Ledger: I'VE have about completed
all our surveys and estimates and
plans for an interurban system of
more than 100 miles, with Mexico as
the center. Mexico Is the natural
location for the power house, ma
chine shops, car houses and office
building; yet. strange to say. we
are having more trouble at Mexico
than anywhere else. Al Columbia,
Hannibal anA Fulton we get the right
Of way to the city limits and no trou-
Bile to locate the city line IN any Of
these places. At Mexico we can hard
ly get a foot of right of way within
three miles Of the town. without fight
ing for 1t.
1T seems almost impossible to get
through the town. We are held up
by exorbitant prices at every turn.
The public sentiment is all right, but
when we come to deal with the indivi
ual he holds us up.
IF this enterprise fails, 1t is be-
u It is strangled at Mexico.
When we present our estimates Of
cost to financiers and builders, and
they gee the cost Of getting through
Mexico, they are liable to turn the
entire proposition down in disgust"

SALE MOST SUCCESSFUL
HELD SINCE FIRST ONE

Only once before has the Missouri
Horse Sale company's great sale eve
equaled the one Just closed. That wa
the opening sale. At the Fifth sale
Just closed, over $4,000 worth o.
stock was disposed Of. The highesI
price was brought by Galloway Belle
the property Of f. c. Holland, o.
Auxvasse, who was purchased by Ge<
Paul, Of Washington, Ia, for s1,O75
This is the highest price ever pax
for a saddle mare at auction lin tht
State Of Missouri. AT the first sal,
in 1904 J.. P. Cudahy, of Kansas
City, paid $11OO for a gelding.
Owing to the number OF ready Il
use stock, such az the management
Of the sale demands, it was impossi
BILE to continue the Sale three days
as has been done heretofore. AND
through the extensive advertising th'
management floods the country with
buyers from every section Of the
country have grown to look forward
to the sale as one worthy of atten
ton.
Secretary Rufus jackson, In speak
ing of the price brought by Galloway
Belle, said: "She is undoubtedly q
fine animal. One lesson could easily
be drawn, though, from the price she
brought. She was finished. AZ least
a year and a half had been spent on
her education and when she entered
the Sale ring this fact was immedi'
ately noted by every horseman pres
emit.
zone of the reasons Kentucky hors
men command larger prices than Nils
souri, is they have their horses fin
ished before they place them on the
market. II we follow this practice
there would be more such good prices
as that of Friday on Galloway Belle"

Feed Mills.

It is almost time for you to begin thinking about
feed for the chickens; wouldn't it pay you to buy a
Famous Lightning Feed Mill to grind the feed for
them and also for your horses and hogs? Makes the
feed go one-third further and saves time and trouble
in going to mill. The Lightning Mill is the one that
grinds so fast and runs so easy. Think this over and
let me show you the Mill and talk it over with you.
Agentf for the Deering Harvester Goods; Moline
Farming Implements; the GAINESVILLE Brown Disc Gull
t~ivator, the Zanesvile-Brown Shovel Cultivators, Har-
rows, etc. Have you bought that Manure Spreader
yet? The Corn King is the one for you to buy. It is
the King of Manure S~preaders. Terms and price
right. Buy one now. Build up your land with little
work and make it produce double.
Call and see me when in need of anything in the
Hardware Line. Large stock to select from.
