The Fort Scott Tribune has a stand
ing offer of five hundred dollars to
anyone who will show how the same
dollar can be spent for groceries and
whiskey too. We hear of a man in
Arkansas who came very near
winnig that five hundred dollars. He
went into the corner grocery store
and called for fifty cents worth of
bacon and so cents worth of tobacco.
The groceryman put them up. After
lettering around for awhile the native
hesitated and, said, ssI don't believe
I'll take them thinks. Give me a dol
lars worth of whiskey instead" The
groceryman put away the tobacco and
bacon and put a dollars worth of
whiskey in the natives jug, soon he
started out, jug in hand. ssHold on.v
You didn't pay for that whiskey, said
the grocer. 81 gave you the tobacco

native. " But you didn't pay for the

Butcher grades sold strong to 10 high
er, veal calves a quarter higher, best
at $3.50.
Stockers and Feeders
Prices advance 25 cents on practic-
ally all kinds yesterday and there
were enough buyers in the yards to-
day to enable sellers to get strong
prices. Feeders especially sold well.
A large number of sales of f1eshy
steers yesterday and today at $11.O0
to $3.50, and some up to $13.25.
Light weight feeders sell at 1855 to
$1O.75, stock steers $500 to $9.75,
stock cows and heifers $6.25 to $780,
Hogs
Extra light receipts forestall all
efforts to depress prices, particularly
at Kansas City, top hogs here yester-
day highest on the Missouri River by
25 cents, and 10 cents above Chicago
The market is strong today, choice
heavy hogs at $3.50 and s1S.75, best
medium weights $3.50, lights $3.50,
bulk of sales $3.50 to $18.65. Appar-
emily no branch of the trade is getting

ating this week, but most of them sell
around $500, no great number at
tracted by the price, outside of some
pigs from dry spots in Texas.
Sheep and Lambs
Packers say their requirements are
small, but at the same time they are
forced to keep up with the feeder
buyers in order to get anything. Both
killers and feeder buyers paid $3.50
for choice Western lambs, plain ma
tives selling around $3.50. Feeder
buyers are figuring on getting over
20 cents a pound for their lambs,
which killers admit is not unreason-
able in view of the way pelt prices
are climbing. Breeding ewes sell at
stronger prices, $3.50 to $17.25,
choice quality black faces and pure
breds recently at $4,000 to $24.00 a
head.

~)~% STOCK MARKET
.~~~~~~~

New York, May -Opening.-Indus- trials of the equipment and intuition groups, metals and shippings led the active dealings of today's early stock market, all being in demand at ad- vances ranging from material frac- tions to more than a point. The in- quiry for United States Steel com. prised several individual lots up to 117 5-s, an overnight gain of almost a point Marines, Atlantic Gulf and West Indies and prominent coppers and motors rose in a way to suggest additional short covering, this being indicated also in the further advance of Industrial Alcohol. Oils hardened with other specialties but railroads were uncertain.
 Noon-Almost without exception market leaders recorded advances of one to two points before profit taking became effective. Shippings and mo- tors also increased their early ad- vantage. Railroads gave promise of general improvement, but sold off abruptly on word from Washington that the interstate commerce com mission advises. extreme conservatism respecting dividend returns during the war. Union Pacific, St. Paul, Atchison and Reading reacted an av- craze of a point. Part rallies at noon were again forfeited. Bonds were firm, although United States coupon 3s lost 4 on single sale.
