The firmness, exhibited by the live
hog situation, is really the only bright
spot in the live stock deal. The large
run, which the packer crowd. has
been predicting for the early days
OF February, has not yet made its
appearance. AS nearly as can be
learned, provision stocks have seldom
been smaller at this season OF the
year. When IL Is remembered that
the end OF the packing season is only
a month away the conclusion is ineyi-
table. The season for large increases
in the demand for cured meats Is at

consumer Is cultivating taste for

The demoralized condition OF the
sheep and lamb trade, which has ex'
listed for the last 80 days, continues,
with little hope for the future. TEous-
ands OF lambs are being marketed
every day, at loss of more than 81
per head, from feeding cost, making
no account OF the grain and rough
age that they have eaten. The west
is believed to be long on fat lambs,
and the money which will be lost In
the sheep and lamb feeding business
this year, will run far into six fig
ures.
In the current lamb market, very
little stock crosses the scent line,
while on the same date last year,
prime lambs brought from $3.50 to
$S.75 per cwt. The lamb feeding ex.
perience of the current season has
been a decidedly unsatisfactory one,
