Help Them on the Extra Offer.
This has been an interesting week
in the piano voting contest. Some
Of the contestants have been looking
over their territory-taking account
of stock-fnding out who are SUBJ
scribers to this paper and incidental
ly making a few mild inquiries about
those in arrears. Better watch out
if you are not a subscriber you are
bound to be approached by not only
one good looking girl but by several
and their winning manner will only
make it pleasure for you to say
"yes, put me down for one year"
and many will say two years. If you
are in arrears, one of the slickest
things to do is to pay promptly, Sc
cure your votes and your name on
the subscription book will not be
watched so eagerly by the contest
ants. The subscription book is wide
open to contestants and their friends.
The leader this week is Miss Vera
Humphrey who has 23,275 votes to
her credit.
The extra gift to contestants is
this: The contestant who will secure
five new subscribers for one year
each, will be given 10, 900 extra votes.
A new subscriber for one year
counts 1000 votes; two years, 5000.
Fifty dollar advertising tcontract to
be used in one year counts 10000
votes, and other advertising contracts
in that proportion.
If a subscriber is in arrears one
year and pays $500, which dates the
paper one year in advance, 5000
votes are issued. In fact, the num-
ber o.-Totes issued to old subscribers
is just the same as issued to new
subscribers.
All contestants from now on must
give in their votes every week to the
vote counter for publication.
There are sure to be surprises
right along. Something to help
contestants to make rapid gains in
their votes. There is plenty of op-
portunity for candidates to now en-
ter the list and win out, for there
will be all the time needed and in
ducements given to get in the lead
and your friends will rally to your
aid and glady help you to win. This
contest is for every young lady in
Essex county and adjoining territory
covered by The Herald who wants to
win a piano. There is no such phrase
as cant win" in this contest. New
fields are the best places for a win
ner for it will be new subscriptions
that will pile up the votes
The grand prizes are splendid
gifts, guaranteed by your own music
rooms and the best money will buy.
Youwill be proud to possess them
and gladly give a little of your time
and effort to be a winner. The
eleventh hour contestant is quite
often the winner, but you want to
get into the contest now. You can
win. Just try it and see how your
friends will come to your support.
Save the little 25-vote coupons
write in the name of whom you wish
them to be counted for and give then
to some boy or girl and help them t
win prize. Your votes will go t
the candidate of your choice and yor
will be helping a little friend, thus
making two persons happy. More
boys and girls should get after these
, little votes. They want prize anC
should have one.

LIVESTOCK MARKET
O.. DURING PAST WEEK

South st. Paul., April 23.-weak-
ness characterized the cattle. hog and
sheep markets last week. Receipts
were lighter all around tina the pre-
viOus week.
Cattle trade last week was some
what uneven, though the general ten
dency was lower. Packers showed
cept common cows, which had good
action all week. In fact, prices on
this stuff were stronger at the close
than they were at the beginning of
the week. The requirements for
cheap beef and canning meat were
responsible for the improvement in
this trade.
Steer trade gradually weakened I'M
til 1t lost much of the strength acQuir-
top of the previous weeks decline.
steers lost rs cents more last week,
the good as we'll as the medium and
common stuff being affected. In spite
Of this a new high record was cache
on odd lots. $3.50, and straight loads
sold up to $12@12.15. Quite a lot of
stuff was good enough to bring $1o.5o
OBJ, and at times this stuff a pref
ty fair action. The kind selling under
$40 dragged all week.
Better grades Of cows and heifers
weakened of 1926 cents, while the
common and in between stuff appear
cd to be steady to strong. Bulk Of
the she stock continued to sell at 81
and better, and toward h close of
the week cutters were selling up to
1915 and n right up to Sc. Ev-
Gamers, with the result that trade on
that stock was the best of anything all
week. Veal calves declined rs cents
during the week.
stocker and feeder trade was the
poorest last week it has been any
time in April. with declines ranging
from 25 cents to so cents on steer
stuff. Feeding cows and heifers also
were lower. but toward the close of
ment in demand and price. Dairy
COW trade was about steady all week.
Judging from the action Of h hog
market the past week. it reached n
crest and is slowly sliding backward.
Prices apparently went as far as the
traffic would bear when top hogs sold
receipts could not account for the
steady decline that began Monday
and continued up to Friday. Total
supplies here last week fell short of
the previous week, the high week, s.
500, though some outside points were
rather literally supplied last week.
Bullish news was not lacking. Ad-
vancing feed prices were not calcu-
lated to lower the COS of pork, pro-
visions ruled strong with a healthy
demand, and the first big government
meat order Of 100000 pounds of
bacon was announced. Packers. how
ever, were bearish all week inc gen.
orally were able to enforce their dis
counts. On Monday and Tuesday de-
clines were moderate. but on Wednes-
day prices broke 1920 cents, the
severest drop of the month, and the
