Nature Stock Feels Competition From
Regular Run of Western Range Cattle

The regular annual run OF western
range cattle is now In full swing, and
the trade in native stock Is feeling
the competition. All grades OF com
mon cattle are working lower rapidly,
with nothing but steady decline in
sight for the next fortnight. To add
to the difficulty. here In Michigan,
pastures are burned up with the
drought and farmers are sending for
ward all kinds. Fully two-thirds Of
the cattle that made an appearance
in the Detroit market last week were
thin stockers and feeders that went
to the country a few weeks since and
are BACK again without making any
gains worth mentioning.
The demand for heavy cattle Is still
dull and slow. The only kind that is
anywhere near holding its own Is the
little heifer stuff and medium weight
yearling and two-year.old steers. Even
these are easing of In price before
the flood Of grass cattle that Is run

is. OF course, very dull, as the farmer

It's own again after a long vacation"
Not long ago the lowest average
weight that was acceptable. to killers
was 20 pounds, but the limit has
been lowered and hogs weighing 10
pounds. III fairly well finished, are
promptly taken without complaint.
Many coarse old sows are coming and
buyers are taking them under pro-
testation. When buying rough hogs,
drovers should exercise great caution,
for the time Is not far distant when
the trade will insist that this Kind
must be sold on its merits and at
much lower prices than now.
Detroit is receiving some or the most
unaslable hogs OF late that have ever
found their way into this market
Many OF them are thin and rough, with
nothing to recommend them except
that they are called hogs. Hundreds
of stubble hogs will come to hand dur
ing the next 80 days. and dealers viii
do well TO exercise great caution. as
buyers will soon begin to sort much
more closely and the dockage for thin,
shelly hogs may more than equal the
profits ON the undertaking. The wealth
or Is still hot and drovers should load
light and put in plenty OF Ice. One
OF two big dead hogs will SOAK up the
profit from a load OF good ones.

HE WOULD EXPERIMENT

Or. CarreI Believes States Should
Give Scientists the Right To DO
So-Some Progress Made.

PARIS, July 27.-At a dinner given
here In honor OF DIR. Alexis Carrel. OF
the Rockefeller Institute. the guest
was asked his opinion of the Gala law
permitting a condemned criminal TO
choose between execution and three
experiments with a view to discover
ing a method for curing consumption.
DIR. Carrel unhesitatingly Endorsed the
law and said he would 60 further and
some day ask for the enactment OF q
law permitting surgical experiments
on condemned criminals He believed
that some American States would
grant the request. as II was most i'm
portant I'm science that surgeons have
the opportunity To study the method
OF conservation OF the tissues and or
gans. and also the secret OF reviying
them.
DR.. Carrel, when asked III the organs
when transplanted from one animal to
another would perform their functions
normally. replied;
This is the most delicate and OBJ
scure Of all the experiments | have
made. | do not know II the nerves
transplanted or the organs themselves
resume functional life. II may be pos
sible that. by an unknown attraction
the nerves put themselves anew into
communication with the nerve centers
On the other hand, transplanted or
gans may live their own life In some
manner automatically. However, the
transplanted kidneys OF dogs have
functioned admirably. The chemical
analysis of carnations before and aft
er the operations showed no change.

searches TO the possibility OF the
