If food satisfies the two great but neglected

Perhaps the best system Of diet Is 10 take

too much.-omitting all those foods which
experience has shown Us 10 be harmful Ana
almost everything has its use. Sometimes
it NAV be Indispensable as with fruit ACIDS,

To-day's Markets.


Chicago Union Stock Yards, Oct
15.-Receipts in all sections were ex-
cessive today--hogs were from 1000
to 5000 above the estimates, cattle
1000 and sheep 10000 and added to
the receipts were large left overs
from yesterday.
In the hog section there was little
competition from eastern buyers al
spectators and the big packers had
things much their own way. The OPP
ening was slow at a cents reduction
from yesterday and as the day ad-
vanced prices went on down another
5 cents and in many cases 15 cents.
The close was the dullest part of the
day with very poor clearance eff
fected. With the receipts promised
for tomorrow and the big left over
there is no reason to look for better
ment Of prices
The bulk sold today at $S05@8.45,
against $S.15@S.55 yesterday; $1,000
$40 last Wednesday; $8.OO@S.60 four
weeks ago; $S.90@9.2O corresponding
Wednesday in 1912; $630@6.65 in
1911; $S.40@S.90 in 1910; $740@7.70
in 1909 and $5.20@5.60 in 1908.
The top paid early this morning
was $3.50; yesterday $50; last Mon
day $3.50; four weeks ago $905; one
year ago 1925; two years ago $3.50;
three years ago $3.50; four years ago
S.85 and five years ago $6.05.
While cattle receipts today were
large the quality was generally poor.
A good many cattle held over from
yesterday were not brought out to-
day, sellers preferring to take chances
that supply would be small tomorrow.
The market was dull and weak all
day with nothing selling better than
at 10 cent reduction from yesterday.
II don't look as though there would
be any improvement tomorrow.
Stockers and feeders found a fairly
good outlet at the decline. Demand
was strong for the good, we'll bred
heavy feeders, but that kind was ex-
ceptionally scarce. The bulk of the
trading was done in fair 10. good. 500

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

while the harvest as a whole has
fallen behind expectations, especially
as to corn and cotton, the grand re-
suit in the United States has been
about an average YIELD" says Henry
Clews in his weekly New York let
ter, and the money value of our
crops will probably be almost as great
as, If not equal to, that of last year:
There has been, no crop calamity !;
and our farmers as a class, backed
by several successive good years, are,
generally speaking, prosperous. The
losses of corn in Kansas and Okla
homa We're largely compensated for
by the big wheat crop; and the loss
of cotton in Texas and Oklahoma by
"a larger yield in Georgia and other
states and the high prices obtained
for the staple OF course the heavy
crop losses in certain districts must
result in spotty business situation,
which has already been reflected by
smaller merchandise orders, as well
Jas a decided shrinkage in the demand
for currency In those sections The
South, as whole, however, has not
been injured. On the contrary, the
high prices now obtained for cotton,
together with the large crop In GER.
tain states, promise TO result in a
period OF exceptional prosperity In
that section OF the country. The yield
yield OF cotton may be exceed 1900
900 bales. and some excellent author
tiles estimate the value OF the crop
at fully billion dollars-an UMPIRE
cedented total. AS TO both cotton and
corn. it should be remembered the
Government is apt to underestimate
the final yield. There Is, therefore,
no serious reason for business appre-
hension so far as the crops are con-
cerned. even allowing for earlier dis
appointments.
