HOGs-It was the same old story In the
hog yards this morningi receipts were ia .rly
liberal, messages from outside points were
decidedly lower and local buyers extremely
bearish. Naturally, there wac very little
activity to the early trade and sales We're
more or less scattering during the first
rounds.
Later In the morning, after the big bulk OF
receipts had been yarded, buyers and SELL
ers finally settled on a trading basis ind
movement became much more active. Most
prices, however, we're just about In the
same notches as early bids, or in o'her
words, the general market was l0c lower
than yesterdays average. Fully sixty loads
Of hogs sold on this basis. A considerable
portion Of the hogs were weighed up at
$s.00G8.10, as compared with yesterday .
bulk of 81 .15QS25, Tops reached IS 25, rs
against yesterdays top OF $50.
Toward the close q few Of the last trains
to arrive did not sell TO quite as good ad-
vantagei in fact, II was difficult in many
cases to secura even an $500 bid on really
good hogs. a narrow demand at prices
that were generally zoe lower than yester-
days average would be about the best way
to describe the situation during late
rounds. The slumpy condition Of the pro-
visions market and the complete democrat
ization OF eastern rtade in live hogs are
generally conceded to be the twa principal
reasons for the sharp declines AT this point
recently.

People That Are Never Salts
fled.

1t was so in the beginning,
And no doubt in the last inning
Some will be loudly crying
That life is not worth trying:
For things are not what they seem
And it's miserable and empty dream
1t looks like they would learn.
While through life they sojourn,
That all can't be JOY and peace
Or happiness that will never cease;
For there must be ups and downs
On this journey, regardless of its bounds.
There are clouds dark and dreary,
But they re no cause for one to weary;
For after the storm and its rain
The sun in it's glory does reign,
And birds that were hushed in silence
Will loudly proclaim the end of violence.
It's joy to live and breathe [breeze
A breath of Gods refreshing mornins
And why should any forget themselves
And make life miserable hell /?
None can believe it so intended
That life should have such ending.
