Five car loads of cattle and hogs,
mostly hogs, were shipped out TUES
day morning for the Kansas City
market as result of the Farmers
Union hog day Monday. The top
price paid was $14.90 per hundred.
There were no big loads of hogs and
no especially big hogs, but it seem
ed as if all the farmers in the county
were bringing in few in order to
have the privilege of selling some
/ thing on the high market. There are
now 443 less porkers in this vicinity
than there were before the 'chog
day.. The total weight was about
II $4,000 pounds and a little over S11,
600 were paid for them. The Union
1 will buy hogs again the latter part
| of June.
