New York. Nov. 2I-Bradstreet's will
say tomorrow:
Mixed characteristics are presented
in the weeks trade news Unseason-
ably mild weather has hampered re-
tail trade over a wide area, which fac
tor has reacted to some extent on job
bers. Conservatism as regards buy
ing is in evidence. Money for time
accommodations is rather tight. and
collections seem to be somewhat hard
er to make. On the other hand, ac-
tivity in holiday trade has tended to
close up some of the gaps caused by
mild weather. Winter wheat is in fine
shape on a record area; railway traffic
is being conducted with relative ease:
farmers appear to be prosperous, and
country banks report a rather heavy
demand for loans, while day-to- day
buying of staple articles is sufficient
to keep stocks down to low levels, this
being indicated by requests for quick
shipment, and a multiplicity OF indus
tries continue active, thug tending to
minimize slowness in other directions.

and lumber.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
UnseasonabIy Mild Weather Hampers Retail
Trade. but Holiday Demand Is Large.
Reaction in Steel Continues.

New York, Nov ar. C. Dun & Co. S
weekly review tomorrow will say:
Trade conditions are reflected in the
unseasonably light demand for money,
especially in the East; in the South and
West there is a little more inquiry. The
recession in iron and steel is more pro-
nounced than in previous weeks In cop
per the situation continues one OF ex-
treme dullness, and substantial conces-
sicns are offered from the values pre-
viously prevailing. As against these evil
dences of trade reaction, however, the
distribution OF dry goods remains steady
and the effect of a restricted supply and
a broad inquiry are clearly apparent. The
largest cotton blanket mills can take no
additional spot orders ana are being
forced tC enlarge their equipment, while
some of the most prominent silk mills
have booked excellent spring contracts.
Futures operations in the dry goods
markets are becoming more conservative.
but there is very steady movement on
cid contracts. All merchandise on order
Is promptly wanted, and at present
prices are decidedly firm.
Few encouraging features are mani
tested in iron and steel, since the shrink
age in new business has been accentu-
ated and prices continue to decline. Even
the low quotations now prevailing have
failed to stimulate the demand to any
extent, buyers apparently believing that
the situation warrants further conces-
sions. The restriction of purchases is
bringing production in some districts
close to the minimum, and IN conse-
quence many employees are being laid
or
"It still is asserted that the paucity OF
offerings restricts trading in shoe leath-
ers, buS in spite of the fact that the
situation is a trifie less active values
hold firm.

New Disease Among Hogs.

Gus Carpenter of Denver was in town Tuesday and reports that there is a disease raging among the hogs of his locality that is wiping them out in a hurry.
 While many the hogs that have died some have evidently had the old fashioned cholera or something closely akin to it, Gus is certain that it is new form of disease that is killing his hogs and those of some of his neighbors.
 The first evidence of the disease is the loss of appetite. The victim droops for about week and takes fever, it's ears swell up to the bursting point, and gradually it grows worse and dies with in nine or ten days from the time it takes the disease.
 MT. Carpenter says he has made ex- animation of two victims of the disease and one he found had congestion of the kidneys and bladder and the other had congestion of the lungs. Some died bleeding at the nose.
 So far not victim has been helped by treatment to the extent of recovery.
 The situation is alarming. It seems like this would be good subject tc talk up with the state experimental station.

Of Great Inter est to Farmers.

Eureka Springs, Ark, July Is, 1913. MT. J. L. Russell, Editor, Green For est Tribune, Green Forest, Ark.
 Dear Sir You are probably aware of the movement of car which the Food Research Laboratory, U. s. De- partment of Agriculture have fitted up, showing results of investigation made by the government, with view of securing better grade of eggs, poultry, etc. We have induced Mir. H. c. Pierce, who has charge of the car to exhibit at Harrison, Saturday, July 26.
 wish you would mention the fact that this car will pass through your city, about p. m. Friday, July 9, in train No. II, and will show all day at Harrison. This demonstration car is entirely for the benefit of the farmers and We would like to have you notify the poultry and egg dealers of your city that this car will be at liar rison all day Saturday and try to in duce them to be there, as Mir. Pierce will be glad to explain to them what the government has in mind with re- spect to shipments of poultry and eggs.
 Yours very truly,

GOVERNMENT DEMONSTRATION
Exhibition of E xpert in Preserving and Marketing Poultry and Eggs at
 Harrison Saturday.

Uncle Sam's Special Egg and Poultry Refrigerator and Demonstration car will leave Neosho on Friday 18th, and is due to arrive in Harrison Saturday the 18th. The egg shippers and pro- ducers along the roads already visited by the Department of Agriculture Poultry shipping car have expressed themselves as highly pleased with the demonstrations given in their towns. At each stop, the specialists in charge of the car, MT. H. c. Pielce and MT. F. s. Jacoby, have tested, graded, chilled and packed without charge, local eggs for local shippers.
 When the car reaches Harrison, it will be located on the side track, most convenient to town. The Demonstra- tions will begin at S:30 o clock and continue until 4:30 The ear will spend all day in this place.
 The two department specialists on this summer tour will give special at tention to eggs and there proper prep aration for shipment. They will also give demons tration to those especially interested in the most approved methods of dressing, chilling and pack ing chickens and turkeys for ship ment to New York and other distant markets.
 Thousands of eggs will be candled according to the commercial standards. Fresh eggs, fioaters, blood-rings, white rots, black rots, and other grades will be exhibited. The demonstration in detecting white rots with fresh eggs. The eggs will then be sorted by market standards of size, cleanliness of shell and condition of shell. These gradings will show exactly the standards now set by commission men in distant markets.
 The eggs will then be put into the refrigerating rooms of the car which will chill them to 40 degrees farenheit in 24 hours. Eggs chilled in this way before being put into the ordinary refrigerator car do not deteriorate rapidly. Eggs packed warm in re- frigerator do not get chilled properly for about five days during which time they undergo constant deterioration.
 The chilled eggs can then be loaded in cases for shipment. The demon- strators will show the most successful plans of using filters, flats and buffers, placing a number of nails and the best way of storing cases in the cars. The eggs thus packed the local owner will be free to ship to his market with the certainty that they started right from his warehouse.
 All interested are cordially invited to attend. The car in itself is well worth seeing as it contains the prin- ciples of thoroughly modern poultry and egg refrigerating plant operated by it's own gasoline engine. It also provides it's own electric lights so that the refrigerating rooms can be well 1 lighted and night demonstrations can be held The same car spent last season in Kentucky and shippers which followed it's methods were able to ship turkeys for the Thanksgiving and Christmas trade in New York in |
