HOGS-The sensational advances In

close, coupled with the shortage OF live
hogs at all Of the principal market points,
are bullish factors which are boosting the
local swine trade toward the ceiling" The
term toward" Is used advisedly, as no
one Of the talent seems able to predict a
stopping place.

but buyers were hungry for hogs. and az
