on the general principle that it
takes a woman to do we'll the
thing that a man knows all
about. However, the making Of
a real home is second nature
with most women and for that
reason they should be consulted
pretty freely about the plans for
the house. When it comes to
lumber we find the women are
extremely keen on the satin fin.
ish and smooth surface stuff.
Guess they know that this kind
Of lumber is going to save a
heap Of money In the actual
work of building because it
won't need any planning or sand
papering by carpenters. We're
strong on that very thing our.
selves and the mills we buy Of
lay particular stress on the high
grade quality, bright color and
natural grain Of the Finish,
Flooring, Ceiling, Siding, Case,
Base, etc. Come in and see
this for yourself.

Chicago, Feb. 14.-fiigh cost Of
rough feed has been the ydamper on
stocker and medium class feeder trade
thus far this year In some sections
of Iowa roughage has been so scarce
that there are reported sales of oats
straw for that use as high az ST.. and
more per ton. These are highest prices
evcr recorded for that c,asg Of rough
age.
Territory east of Chicago has the
slimmest supply of rough feed ever
known. hay prices are up around $50
Per ton and a lot of Michigan and Ohio
farmers are buying hay now at that
price to carry their horses thru. 1t
takes high price beef to warrant feed
ing $50 hay and corn at present prices
and the flood Of light and habitat beef
steers that showed up yesterday and
the narrowness of demand for thrifty
stockers aud feeders are not difficult
of explanation.
This slim demand for young stuff
may be expected to continue as long
as weather OF such severity holds out,
but with a warmer turn there Is likely
to be activity and fairly broad outlet
for young stockers and feeders of
class to do best by feeding in pasture
FOR the summer market. and current
prices are not likely To represent the
value of stockers and feeders three
or four weeks from now when the time
for refreshing pastures will be only
few weeks away.
Most of these light steers are drag
sing along now with narrow demand
at prices ranging ss.5064.10 for an
inferior to very plain light class. fair
class going around s4.4O and fancy
breezy stockers quotable up around

GOOD THINGS To EAT.
Grocery Stores Have Made Ample
Provision for Christmas.

The grocery stores have begun to re-
ceive supplies of good-things-to-eat for
the Christmas season; also holly and mis-
tletoe in abundance. Christmas trees too
are now on the market.
The Topeka girls will have to work
sharp If they do not wish the boys to
take advantage of the chance that hang
ing mistletOe gives to administer kisses
that are usually forbidden. The crop of
mtstletoe in the south was unusually
heavy and the berries are of an excep-
tonally perfect white. The price is not
beyond the reach of those who are not so
fortunate as to possess bullying purses
thirty cents a pound. 1t will be remem-
bered that last year good mistletoe was
a scarce article.
Good holly retails at ten cents a pound
and some of the grocers and others are
selling holly and evergreen wreathS at
twenty-five cents each.
The Christmas trees are of a quality
that will delight those who behold them
all bedecked in shining ornaments, and
toys of the little tots.
The California orange crop is now NOV
ing. The fruit is sweeter than a week
ago, and the prices are not quite up to
never cheaper than now.
Grapes are inclined to be scarce, but
they may be had If one cares to pay
the price. The top-notch price is one
dollar and a half, which IS the price de-
manded for the English hot house variety.
Casaba melons from California are re-
failing for fifty cents each Then there
are a number of unusual fruits that sell
for fancy prices.
Turkeys VIII be plentiful and compare
lively cheap. In fact the feathered tribe
in general will be well represented on the
market.
Eggs have taken a decided drop. The
best eggs are selling at thirty cents a
dozen as against thirty-eight cents two
or three weeks ago. Butter is slightly
cheaper-thirty-seven and thirty-nine
