In the face of continued liberal mar
ketings values have gone persistently
skyward and the end OF the year finds
them upon the highest plane known in
this country since the days Of the civil
war and the brief period thereafter. We
may expect therefore. to see in this
country a continuance OF nigh prices
for all grades Of livestock. and the more
liberal the marketing of beef cattle
now the more keenly viii be felt any
shortage in the spring We can see
ahead for the livestock producer only a
continuance Of nigh prices.
'Latterly the outgoing movement Of

but there is not being returned to the
