Traer, Feb. 3-Ars Chris Petersen,
of Portland. Ore. mother of Henry
Peterson, northeast of town, has ar
rived for an extended visit with her
son and numerous friends. She removed
from this locality with her husband,
who died about two years ago. to Or
egon a number of years ago, and this

Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Richards, north
of town, are parents OF a son.

Hill farm north of town, recently va
Gated by George Linn. Mr.. Linn and
family moved to farm near Hudson.
The calendar for the February term
of the district court, which convenes
on the 18th of February, is filling up
rapidly. Two new suits have been insti-
tuted at Traer this week. One. is
brought by G. H. Milne against }. w.
Rourke and l. S. Rourke, of Toledo, for
their failure to pay certain prom
issory note of $240. The other is a dam
age suit brought by S. P. Moore. for
mer Traer boy, but late of Elberon,
against the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul. The petition sets forth that the
plaintiff delivered to the railway COM
pany at Anamosa, on the Goth day of
August, 1908, certain standard bred
horse called sid Moore" to be shipped
to Elberon. Iowa; that the horse Was
Very fast and capable of being driven
to a low mark, and eligible to be en-
tered in the class of PAGERS known as
the 2:30 class, and winning a. large
amount of money in said class, and that
said horse was reasonably worth $4,000.
The petition further alleges that while
the car furnished by the defendant was
standing on the track at Anamosa, the
engineer in charge of defendants
trains, caused said train to be run in
such a violent, reckless manner, that

against the car, and was injured in

worthless. Mr.. Moore sues for $1,000
damages and costs.

played Late, Prices Did Not
Advance Materially
DECLINE IN THE HOG MARKET
Trading Extremely Quiet, Packers
Bearish, and Demand From Other
Buyers, Meager - Heavy Holdover
Receipts = Packers Had Sheep Mar
ket to Themseves-Sheep and Lambs
Both Lower.

| Chicago, Feb. Seattle opened slow
and generally 10c lower. because of
liberal receipts. Later, more activity
was displayed. but prices did not adj
vance materially. Cow stuff closed
steady. Butcher cattle enjoyed more
activity than steers.
With q liberal supply in sight for
the balance of the week. the situation
is not encouraging. Buyers have had
little excuse for the pounding they
gave the market the past few days,
except that they We're loaded up with
beef This loading up process occurred
some time ago and with the light re-
cepts last week it was generally be-
lieved that the meat channels were
pretty we'll cleared. Apparently this
was not the case for at present the
outlet is extremely poor. The refusal
to buy has been based mostly on the
assumption that there would be plenty
of cattle to fill all requirements to-
day. Many cattle were held back on
account of the storm last week and
the usual Mondays supply is coming in
later.
Hogs.
A tremendous run brought about a
decline of 10000 from yesterday, AMI
trading was extremely quiet. Packers
were bearish, and demand from other
buyers was meager Including holdov-
ers, there were about $4,000 on sale.
The principal western markets re-
ported 100000 for the first two days of
the week, against $4,000 last week and
$4,000 a year ago. but the two-dav run
at these points is only 141 900. against
10000 a year ago. Local supply is
little less than last week
1t is improbable that country buy
ers have followed the advance of Sat
urday and Monday. but if they have
they have been riding for "a fall, as
the logical result of restoration of sup
ply to normal volume is reaction in
prices. The time rs not opportune for
the appearance of the 7-cent hog.
Provision stocks are construed as
rather bearish The increase in regu-
lar lard last month was $1,000 ties in
Chicago. and ribs increased 100000
lbs. Total stocks Of meats of 1869
900 lbs. compared with 121000000 lbs
month ago and 129,00o,000 lbs last
year. A few of the provision specialists
are very bearish on lard, claiming that
the bulk of the winter trade is over
and that at present prices buying will
be slow. 1t is expected that the worlds
stocks of lard will show an increase of
$4,000 ties during January. compared
with an increase of $4,000 ties in De-
cember and 1926 ties last year.
Sheep.
Altho receipts We're not considered
excessive, sheep were hard to sell.
There was practically no shipping de-
mand, packers having the market to
themselves.
Sheep closed 25c lower, and lambs, 10
@15o off.
