HOGS-Hogs were extremely slow and
the market as a whole very unsatisfactory
to selling interests from start to finish.
A very few loads sold early at prices that
did not look very much lower, but the
trading on that basis was very limited
and not of sufficient Importance TO talk
about. Packers as a rule started out bid
they would buy them that way or leave
the hogs alone. AS statesmen did not feel
justified in making the concession, the
nothing doing during the first half of the
forenoon. In fact It was well along to-
ward midday before buyers and sellers
could get together.
In the end the sellers had to make the
concession. The market was safely 50lao
lower, growing even worse than that later
on, so that the trade at the close was very
flat, with prices generally 10c lower. The
bulk of ali the hogs sold at H.S0Q7.96 and
on up as high as SS,10 for the top.

The dawn of another year has been
ushered in Lots of us have made
numbers of resolutions Let's see if
we can't keep these Make the deeds
of the year shine out tenfol1 brighter
than those of the past year. If you
have made up your mind to do better,
don't let the first temptation make you
yield. Just use your will power and
overcome it,
Gee, but someone has got very liber.

downed whiskey and didn't give dane

just as short as yours and my beard is
just as stiff When ever | get ready |

lieye in drinking, but you take a
drink now and then. Is that chris
tian livingI Yet you go and give me
a lot of christian advice Pot can't
call the kettle black. All religions
don't condeEn dancing and / expect I
am living about as near up to my re-
ligion as anyone.
Everyone is at work here now and
there is no news to write. Ethel.
