SIOUX CITY LIVESTOCK MARKET

Sioux City, March Cattle re-
ceipts were moderate for a Tuesday,
estimate calling for 1,40O head, as
against 2,459 a week ago and 2,494
the corresponding day a year ago.
Quota of killing grades included
this morning was of small proper
tions and disposal was quoted as firm
with the previous day. Wires from
outside points indicated a weaker
trend.
Narrowing of country inquiry for
stock cattle had its effect on the
market today. and prices developed
a degree of weakness OIL practically
all grades. Trade lacked life and for
the most part prices were reported rs
weak to a dime lower than on yester-
day, or the market is now 10 q zoe
lower than at the close of last week.
Receipts of hogs were somewhat
larger than on Monday, but were still
comparatively moderate. Bullish
conditions existed. Strong demand
for shippers gave statesmen the ad-
vantage and most business was done
on a basis that was 10 q 15c higher.
Top sales were pushed to $3.50.

ers and friends. it is time for US TO
wake up and discuss, and do our
best to have better road law

any better ROADS.
| think it is up to the Board of Sap.
ervisors to call good roads meet
ing in each district to discuss The

ing at Monterey to consider the best
plan for working our roads and to
formulate bill to send to our
Representative in the Legislature
to have enacted into a law, where
bv we could have all our road tax
put on our roads in a more
economical way than under our
present law. Didn't our Super
visors promise before election to
serve the people to the best OF
their ability. Now let us give them a
chance to see what they will do III
regard to our roads. Our roads are
of about as much Importance to
the public as our schools. For
without roads schools cannot be of
the best either, as we have to have
roads to reach the schools.
And another question OF import
ance is to get a law passed to have
our automobile license put on our
public roads in the district where

State roads where we can never
get any benefit therefTom. This
will not only be benefit to the

And let us remember the little boy
who was asked by his teacher who

Us all make that our motto IN the
