HOGS ADVANCE
Fifteen CENTS
WHILE CATTLE CONTINUE DULL
AND LOOK GOOD FOR AN
OTHER DECLINE.
Wheat CONTINUES Firm At Two DOL
lars-New Potatoes Are
Bringing So.

Not only has there been no improve
ment in the cattle market, but the in
dications are that the level has not
yet been reached and that before quo
tations steady the prices will drop
from half to cent on the grassers
and probably less than that on the
higher grades.
Hogs alone of all the live stock
show continued strength the market,
advancing today from 10 to Is cents,
with the spread between lights and
the heavies widening to eighty-five
cents, unusual for this season when
not infrequently premium is placed
on the lighter sort.
Lambs were lower again today, but
sheep maintain the $3.50 figure.
Three dollars is still quoted by
dealers for the new potato crop. The
yield SO far reported in the county
has been rather disappointing. Espe-
cially is this true of the first that have
come in mostly of The Triumph varie-
ty. The cobblers promise better, al
| though comparatively a small part Of
that crop has been marketed.
Quotations on eggs and poultry are
| firm and unchanged.
Wheat was unchanged today, after
a holiday of two days, July closing
at 50.
If there were any wheat to be Of.
| fered here, as is usually the case at
this season, the market would open at
81, which is the highest price paid
for wheat at threshing time since just
after the close of the civil war.

The Junior Order.

Bigbyville people celebrated the
Glorious Fourth with, one of the most
and largely attended dem
constructions known to the history Of
that section. The people were afire
with patriotism and every utterance
of the eloquent speakers was cheered
to the echo. If there were any slack
ers in the crowd or any one who ex-
pected to give encouragement to the
slackers or any who in any way lacked
in the fullest measure of loyalty to
the country that fact was not appar-
ent.
1t was altogether fitting that this
demonstration should have been held
at Bigbyville, for it will be remem-
oered that away back on March 8, be-
fore the declaration of war, at Jun

of Bible and United States flag. The
exercises were held on the beautiful
lawn Of the Methodist church and DR.
c. B. Belts, pastor Of Hopewell church
acted as master Of ceremonies.
Judge Mcknight, Of the county
court, presented the Bible. His ad
dress was an inspiration. 1t was
beautifully worded tribute to the
Bible and its influence upon the des
tiny of the human race. He referred
to the fact that in this war the United
Sattes and its allies were fighting fol
the civilization and the ideals which
they had received from the Bible. Hi.
address was frequently punctuatet
with vociferous applause.
The presentation of the flag wa'
done by Maj. Horace Fierson, of thu
Firts Tennessee Artillery. His ad
dress, too, was notably eloquen
one. He referred feelingly to thu
crisis that now confronts the natiol
and urged that every possible effor
in every direction of every citizen b
given to the cause of human libert.
and Christian civilization.
Rev. ]. NJ Horn, pastor of the Bigby

the tenets of the Junior Order. H
declared that patriotism, the love o
country, the willingness to do and j

were the basis upon which the corner
