Low hog market in the East
and big run Of 1890 on sale
today played havoc with the Io-
cal hog trade. The market open-
ed Toe to 15c lower with only
city butchers and a few shipper
buyers operating. A city butch
er paid $3.50 for fancy hogs,
but at the same time, other
buthcer buyers sorted choice
hogs at $40 to $3.50. These
buyers soon filled up and then
packers entered the market de-
handing concessions Of zoe to
Csc with the late market yester-
day, meaning that packers
bought good hogs at $50 to
$8.25-the same grade they
paid $685. to $3.50 for late yes
terday. Packers soon filled up
and for a time were out of the
market, but received some new
orders late and secured many
good swine at So which is fiat
zoe to 40c lower than yester-
days lowest time.
There is a large number of
pigs on sale and the trade is vir-
tually in a demoralized condi-
ton with very little demand for
them. Today's trade is fully SOC
to 75c lower than Monday. The
good ITO to 1875 pound pigs sold
at $6.75 to $500, and. the light
er pigs at Sc to $3.50. Rough
hogs brought $3.50 to SITS.
Cattle trade is much more ac-
tive than late prices of last week.
All kinds of killing cattle are
15c to 25c higher, while stockers
and feeders are closing SOC per
cwt. higher than last Friday.
Sheep market active today.
Very few lambs here, with mar
ket strong to 10c higher. No
top lambs on sale; best bringing
$685.. Fat sheep sold mostly
around Sc.

ADVERTISING is VALUABLE

AS a striking and forceful ev-
idence of the great value OF pub
licity, by judicious advertising,
one has only to comprehend the
results of Mr.. Edward G. Bar
rolls recent Concert at the
Monarch Theatre. Mr.. Barroil
utilized every avenue and means
of publicity, and the result was
a monstrous overlooking crowd.
We frequently hear complaints
that these people will not at
tend function or concert; that
they are not responsive. The
great body of the people here
is not different from that of
other cities and towns; but,
great scott, how can the people
be expected to attend when
they know not of the occasion?
Shall it be supposed that they
should know intuitively? The
best cure for this apparent short
coming is Advertise, advertise
as Mr.. Barroll did.

GREEN MANURE

Our soil needs manure more
than any other fertilizer. Even
in the swamps where the lum-
herman has cleared up small
patch, the same thing is true.
Where garden or farm crops
are grown on these small clear
ings, the place where shed, or
barn, has stood, is always out
standing.
But Southeast Missouri does
not now have enough live stock
to supply enough manure to
properly cover the land. Green
manure is the best thing to use
until we get stock. Peas are
more often used for this pur-
pose than any other crop be-
cause of their rank growth and

UNCLE JUD ON HOW TO AD-
VERTISE

Some folks who mean all right
enough would open wide their
eyes if you should tell 'em that
they don't know how to adver-
tise. They think that with sue
cess their efforts surely will be
crowned if they employ small
boys to throw their printed hand
bills round; the hand bills litter
up the porch ; are swept into the
dust, and seldom get inside the
homes to be read and discussed
it's just a waste to throw them
out broadcast into the street
for the same amount of money
one could advertise in the home
sheet; the ad would reach the
women folks, for they're the
ones who buy, and they're look
in out for bargains; lookin' out
with eagle eye. Other merchants
waste their money paintin' signs
on barns and trees, and disfigur-
in the landscape with announce
ments such as these: go to
Murphy's for your School Books
Bradley's Drug Store Leads

Price Clothier! Buy your Feed

be a bit progressive; boost your
town and do your part; and pat

because they add nitrogen to the
soil. Any rank growth adds hui
mus. Even weeds have consid-
cradle value and a heavy growth
should be plowed under.
One thing we lack for this
work is better plows. 1t may be
some farmer can turn under
tangled pea vines, or weeds, as
high as the horses backs with
the ordinary walking pillow, but
not many do SO. A sulky pillow is
the best thing to tackle such a
job with, and | am afraid we will
continue to burn much valuable
humus until we get better plows.
