A recent government publication
dealing with the causes of decay of
cabbage in storage states that soft rot
and leaf blight are the immediate
causes of this decay. The organisms
which cause decay gain access to tine
leaf through bruises and injuries due
to the careless handling and through
leaves infected with black rot.

shrewd, kindly old Senator Mike"
Moriarty have a view to still further
procrsstination In the Senator Brad
ley. attempted bribery case, when he
fought against having the report OF
the investigating committee taken up
By the senate as whole this week,
and secured date for next Tuesday
Moriarty's plea was that a mans
time in building up. In one locality,
should not be blasted by hpsty action.
As result, there will not be hasty
action, because the legislature will
adjourn Tuesday night for the week,
the Democratic and Republican con
ventions calling away so many OF the
members OF both houses that IL would
be impossible TO do business. No one
seemed TO think of IL when the reso
luton for postponement was adopted
but IL Is thought that Bradley will be
the gamer by letting the charges get
cold. on the other hand, II is almost
certain from the report OF the com
mittee. that the preponderance OF EVIL
dence tends TO corroborate me story
told by Sherman Townsend, the de-
posed assistant sergeant at arms, will
be adopted by a majority.
Bradley has been changeable dur.
ing the week. At one time his friends
said that he had decided To resign
and 90 back TO his constituents for a
reelection, with the assurance that
he would not be opposed. Later, II
was announced thai he had changed
his mind. The incident has had a
disquieting effect on the session that
IL probably will not overcome.
The adjournment Tuesday night will
also interfere with the progress OF
the home rule amendments prepared
by Corporation Counsel Hally, which
were TO be taken before the legisla.
ture Wednesday by the legislative
committee of the League OF Michigan
Municipalities.
The adjournment Thursday night
was due TO the wish OF various com
mittees OF the house 90 make visits

tuition which was forced through over
Speaker Bakers ruling this week. The
senate. which has become disguised
with the tactics of the house on the
junket proposition. gave IL slap on
the wrist when nine out OF ~ sena

SHEEP-With weeks clearance OF sheep
and lambs practically complete and no
fresh supply available, today,s market
was void OF business and showed no
changes in ,prices
IL was a heavy trade during the week,
however as fully 10000 head Of stock
arrived and changed hands, this total be-
ing the largest of any week thus far this
season. Lambs made up the big bulk Of
offerings and feeder animals outnumbered
fat grades by almost three to one. The
various outlets proved ample as present
clearance indicates, but the tone to demand
at times was slow and unsatisfactory.
Daily clearances always involved bulk but
were usually qualified by few loads OF
followers.
Lambs, running more freely than any
other class of stock, yielded TO bear pres
sure read'iv and suffered liberal declines,
especially where packing orders did not
meet the competition OF the country de-
mand. Good, fat lambs, now selling at
IS. lOd5.40, show a slump OF S5G50C, while
feeder lambs drew a lesser cut of l5G25c.
Thrifty feeder lambs are selling from $500
d5.6 downward. Sheep, both feeder and
fat, have been well sustained at all times
and are closing steady to perhaps little
stronger in spots
The trade in thin and inbetween classes
OF stock has been the largest and most
interesting, OF course, as western ranges
are furnishing feeder stuff rather than
finished strings According to packers
tab, fully 10000 head of animals were
purchased by country buyers and spec
ulators during the week. this estimate
amounting to about 40 per cent of the

quarters were rather hard to find a con
dition that is typical OF saturday business.
Right around sixty loads OF animals
made up the run and offerings presented
weight rather than quality Larger droves
consisted of ordinary butchers, purchased
at narrow spread of S695dIO0, while
best bacon grades on sale brought NOo
Identical with yesterdays high price.
Shippers bought sparingly, furnishing an
outlet for only eight or ten loads, clear
ance at 10 o'clock was practically com
plete.
A light supply. a break OF about 15c in
prices, and a narrowing OF spreads were
the main features OF the weeks trade
Only 27.OOO head OF animals were received
since last weeks close and values. In
stead OF having a Csc range, show merely
a 1O-cent spread from extreme top TO
bottom OF bulk. Demand on most days
has been very conservative.
