THURSDAY

There was only small showing OF
supplies in the livestock market to-
day. and some of this was a direct
purchase of killers and therefore did
not enter the trade this morning.
Recent sales in the mutton division
have been rather deceptive and on
this showing it might be stated that
prices were lowered. Lack Of gener-
ally good quality, however, has been
factor of importance in keeping val
ues away from the high mark. Dur
ing recent days no transactions in
lambs have been made above SJ.75,
and seemingly this would be the eX-
treme mark.
Only 434 head or sheep appeared
in the North Portland yards during
the day, compared with SOC a week
ago, 1491 a year ago and 409 head
two years ago for this same day.
Sheep shippers: r. Kopplin, Plain
view, loads; S. l. Hibbs, McMinn-
vile, loads sheep and hogs.

Select spring lambs 80. .$5.75 $500

10000 a year ago, the market show
ed a loss of sc to 1Oc with tops at

No Cattle Arrive.
There were no cattle among the ar
rivals in the North Portland market
today. The trend of the trade has
been so poor recently that local sell
lers have sent out discouragng re-
ports to country interests. With so
much better feeling in the south than
here, California shipments in this di-
rection are likely to cease for the
time being, but this will not likely
have much effect upon the immediate
trade, owing to the surplus now being
held by killers. As soon as this is out
Of the way the market may do bet
ter unless so much local stuff comes
forward that wants of killers are
oversupplied.

Pitching
BY BILLY EVANS.

Few really great baseball teams
are shy on battery men. Good
pitching and good catching cut a
big figure in every battle of the
diamond. Few teams have won
pennants unless well fortified back
of the bat and in the pitchers
box. No matter how many runs a
team may make, they are wasted
If the opposition makes one more.
Many national league critics in
sist that the Cubs would have cut
a big swath last year had the
pitchers not failed. Many look on
the teams showing as remarkable,
considering the pitching staff.
Detroit suffered because of a
pitching slump. The Cubs and the
Tigers, the scores show, lost many
games when they made five, six,
seven and eight runs. Something
is wrong somewhere when SO
many runs fall to win.
The late Addie Joss, a great
student of the game, once said
pitching was seven-tenths of
clubs strength. Many scoffed at
this, but Addie was not far out of
the way.
Take last years Washington
club for example. Let an ordin-
airy pitcher do the twirling and

Hall is one of the best pitchers

very we'll satisfied with the pres
