trade is looking for plenty more
fireworks before Se spring season
II over. Since the beginning OF De.
cember. prices have gone up S1.76
per cwt.. and current values are now
$3.50 per cwt. higher than on this
date last year. Killers are placing
q big premium on quality. ~ dress
Ing averages cut much greater figure
when prices are high than when
they average low. Fed westerns
never sold 40 high before. and ma
tives are so cents per cwt. above
the record. Buffalo has reached the
Sl2 mark. but only few are to be
had that are worth this price. The
wool trade Is still booming. and
prices are working higher every
day. Ohio half-blood combing has
reached 40 cents per pound In Bos-
ton. Unwashed delaine from Ohio
has sold ~ high as s3 cents and
washed delaine 80 cents. About
the best that can be done with
Michigan unwashed delaine 10 20
cents per pound. Missouri In re-
ported TO be getting 80 to 80 cents
for unwashed qusrter.blood wools.
The live hog and provision situa-
ton seems to be In rather an un-
certain position with dullness as
the leading feature. Lard has been
the weak number OF late, but pro-
visioners are looking for . much
improved demand for this useful
product little later on. Conditions
abroad would seem to make II nec-
essary for European countries TO

GOOD REPORT
ON PIERCE OIL
is EXPECTED

Strength Of the Pierce OIL corpo-
ration stock the last few days is at
tributed to the expectation that the
1915 annual report. TO be issued In
three weeks, will show a remarkable
gain In earnings. II has been esti-
mated that the balance available for
stock will be something In excess OF
seven Der cent. exclusive Of proiits
on Mexican business. which will
probably not be included owing to
the still tangled exchange situation.
In 1914 a deficit OF Si01.500 was
shown after interest charges. the
Mexican profits being also excluded
In that year.
The corporations Affairs In Mex
leo are In much better shape than
at any time In the past two years.
!. Exchange conditions have improved
10 such an extent that II Is now pos
sible TO purchase gold drafts at sew
eraI points where II has been recent
~ impossible TO obtain exchange at
all. A larger amount OF gold Is
therefore being transferred, as every
effort IL being made TO remit accu'
mulated funds from Mexico.
The Tampico refinery OF the cor
poration is being operated at capac-
ity. Construction of additions Is un-
der way which will practically dou-
mile the capacity. increasing II to 49,
900 barrels of crude daily by Aug. !.

Funds obtained through recent
note issue are being applied to i'm
provements OF the plants In this
country, as well as Mexico.

Butchers cattle have felt the In.
iuence OF q large supply OF steers.
and the trade In this department
has lacked much Of the activity
which has characterized the month
30 far. The only kinds that have
really held their own during the last
10 days are extra heavy steers and
bologna bulls. which are not found
often enough In the yards to meet
the needs Of the trade. Killers are
not accommodating beef In their COOL
ers. and every time decrease Of
receipts Is noted. they are good
buyers. A few too many cattle In

the cattle division 10 showing more
activity Of late. especially In the
west. where clearances for account
Of the interior are much larger than

r. r. L. Knight, president Of the
State Fair Of Texas, announces that
the most extensive and complete ar
ranqements have been made with a
view of making the 1916 State Fair
at Dallas, which opens October a.,
and continues to and through Octo-
ber %, the largest, most interesting
and most valuable agricultural and
educational exposition ever held.
During the year just passed, the
Fair management has conducted vast
Improvement enterprises at Fair Park
practically every department has
felt The influence Of the earnest de-
sire to bring all details connected
with the Fair right up to the min
ute. and, as a consequence, when the
1916 Fair opens next fall, every nee
essary equipment and facility for an
epoch-making exposition will have
been provided.
Premiums Largely INCREASED.
The State Fair Of Texas is, essen
tally. an agricultural eXposition; its
purpose is to gather together and dis
plav annually a representative show
ing Of the wonderful resources and
DOSNlbllikltN vi Aiit y EAfo' AfN"N'f 49, =
and this in order that the peoples Of
other sections may have an in
creased appreciation of the marve-
lous fertility Of Southwestern soils,
and the incompatible advantages Of
our matchless Southwestern climate.
Is obvious that this purpose can be
best achieved by inducing and infm-
encng large majority of farmers Of
the section to bring displays of their
products to Dallas, and with this end
III view, the directors Of the Fair
have, this year, voted large increases
in premiums for practically all classes
OF agricultural and live stock exhibits
The premiums offered by the Fair
this year are undoubtedly the most
valuable ever appropriated by any
Fair Association; and, likewise, the
total number Of premiums will be
much greater than in the past.
Many New Classiiications Added.

tieularly in the sections devoted to

be found this year a number Of inter-

poultry section. classification for all
kinds of pigeons has been devised,
and special building is now being
constructed to house the large num-

raising of pigeons for the market IS
becoming an important industry in

Premium List for 1916 Now Ready
w II. Stratton, secretary of the
Fair Association. announces that the
premium list for 1916 has Just been
issued and is now ready for general
distribution. This is a book of l42
pages, handsomely printed on good
paper, and is fittingly illustrated with
Photographic reproductions Of por-
traits Of the officers and directors Of
the Fair, and with scenes in Fair

is, in fact, much more-as it con-
tains great deal Of interesting and
valuable information relative to the
rules and regulations governing the
different classes and. in fact, all nee
essary daa relative to the aims and
purposes of the Fair
A feature Of this book which will
interest practically all Texans will
be found in the front Of the publica-

cent photograph and glowingly de-
picts the wonderful growth which
Dallas has attained in recent years.
In the back of the 1916 Premium
