PORTLAND LIVE STOCK

The following market letter is from
the Portland Union Stock Yards COM
pany: The receipts for the week have
been: Cattle, Alb; calves, 10; hogs,
2781; sheep, 6288.
With depressed condition of the
cattle market last week and Monday
being holiday, the receipts in the
cattle division totaled IA loads. The
principal buying was done by out of
town buyers from Oregon points,
who took all offerings at slightly
higher prices than those prevailing
last week. Choice steers sold at $3.50
and COWS are quotable at $3.50.
Strictly choice bulls will bring up to
$500.
The quality of hogs being offered is
not as good as should be available for
market at this season. Swine which
have been allowed to run on pasture
while fattening or which have been
fed fattening rations for only short
time are soft and washy and do not
make firm pork. One lot of hogs

Early in the season hats having
transparent brims made their appear
ance. These brims were fiat and
mounted on braid crowns. They were
made Of malines, net, chiffon or thin
crepe. Nearly always, embedded be-
tween layers of such airy materials,
flowers, with petals spread fiat, added
touches of lovely color. The effect
is very pretty-and gave the hats
their distinguishing name-that of

So good an item OF art in millinery
was destined to outlast the early sea-
son and to introduce many transpar-
ent hats for midsummer. The latter
are made, crown and all, of the thin
fabrics, and brims have grown wider.
Flower and feather trimmings
mostly fowers-are mounted on the
outside or underbrim instead of being
embedded in the material.
A beautiful hat of this character is
shown in the picture. 1t is of black
malines made over frame of fine
silk wire. The edge wire and one
other are outlined on the underbrim
by filter jet. There is an immense
pompon of malines at the front with
two long jet ornaments thrust in it.
Nothing could be prettier for midsum-
mer wear than this exquisite piece of
millinery
Hemp and leghorn hats, with fac

is the favorite color and hats of this
character are among the best de-
