SOME GOOD IDEAS RELATIVE
TO HOG MARKET.
Editor The Commonwealth:

Editor The Commonwealth:
note with much interest the
articles in last weeks issue of our
local papers relative to the sug-
gestions Of the Business League
to communicate with a buyer or
buyers to make regular trips to
Greenwood, and buy the offerings
Of merchantable hogs at New Or
leans. st. Louis or Memphis prices,
less freight and a fair profit TO
the buyer. Now to those who
are not acquainted with all the
facts, this seems to be a very good
idea. Now let US see. The high
est market for hogs at any time
is st. Louis. The prices paid in
st. Louis today for Tops, that Is
Packer Hogs, is $7.l5 per hundred,
The hogs we raise here from one
hundred and fifty to two hundred
pounds would bring from 6 SAC
to 7c, less for lighter hogs. The
freight on-this Car is $500; com
MISSION charges for selling will be
about 1926 90; the shrinkage viii
be no less than 81; not counting
bruised hogs or other accidents
and after deducting a reasonable
profit for the buyer, what do you
think your hogs would or shoult
net you?
Nor is it just this year that thu
prices decline, but every year a
this time the prices 20 down ant
in March up they go.
| am very anxious myself t
create a market for hogs here
for ! raised about one hundred
head this year and expect f
raise double this amount mex
year. The trouble with us her
is. that we all have our hog
ready to market at the SAM
time, and have no means to hol'
them except to feed them tn
high-priced corn or other feeds
One solution Of this problem /
to arrange a system Of pasture
to carry the hogs until the large
markets offer a reasonable price
Then again il we were all in
position to hold our hogs instea
of being forced to sell as we ar
now, the local market would nc
become glutted and we could Sc
nearly all our surplus hogs rigf
here at from &c to 1-2c pc
pound, which would be hard I
, beat at foreign markets at best, 8
t it would cost nearly | l-2c pe
pound to sell our hogs at S
!. Louis counting shrinkage, freigl

"MOVe On!"
BY George Randolph Chester.
C0pyriQhf, The Frank A. MUnsey Co.

Along about midnight, with his
head bent and his shoulders huddled
against the biting cold, man turned
painfully back to the brick yard
chimneys glowed red and promised
warmth.
AS he entered the lane of sheds, he
saw a lantern come swinging up
from the other end, and hid himself
in the shadows of pile of clay-hung
lumber. The watchman stalked by,
whistling cheerfully. Out of the cor
ner of his eye he saw the vagrant, as
the gleam of the lantern flashed upon
him, but he paid no attention; he did
not want to see the man. He was a
big, bluff, hearty fellow who had
known cold nights himself.
When the watchman had passed,
the man slipped out of his conceal
ment and shuffled hastily into the
mouth of one of the broad, low
sheds. He found himself in a pas
sageway, on either side of which
were a dozen furnace doors. Each
of the walls which contained these
doors was built with a ledge about
seven feet from the ground, and was
about two feet wide.
Feeling above one of these ledges,
the mans hand touched something
soft, and a rough voice cursed him
and tol6 him to move on. This ex-
perience was repeated with varia-
tions, twice more, and then he came
to an unoccupied place. The bare

tramp travels by night, and always
rides. This man had been merely
improvident. He was the winter
grasshopper, and the ant had no use
for him, that was all.
1t was this unthinking nature that
allowed the mere exhilaration of
walking in the brisk air to keep him
contented through most of the
morning. He passed bleak, frozen,
landscapes, passed bleak, hibernat-
ing farmhOuses, passed bleak, life
less little villages, with never a
wonder whether in some of these
places there might not be, at last,
the haven where he might rest and
become once more human.
1t was not until full midday that
hunger distressed him. For some
time past he had thought of it, but
one glance at any house where it
crossed his mind to apply for food
was enough to send him trudging on,
discouraged before even making an
attempt.
