HEAVY RECEIPTS AND SMALLER
DEMAND FORCE PRICES TO
LOWER LEVELS.
DECLINE RANGES FROM
IS TO IS CENTS
Rance Between Prices For Lights and
Butchers Narrows-Good weight
Western and Native Cattle Strong
to Hisher-killer Sheep Decline
Current Quotations.

Chicago, Nov. THE session Of the
hog market today was unsatisfactory
to sellers. Receipts. were heavy for
Thursday and prices we're mostly 10
to 90 cents lower. The range between
lights and butchers has narrowed I'M
til now the top prices are only a
nickel apart.
A total of 10000 hogs at eleven
markets Wednesday showed 5000 in
crease compared with a week ago, 81
600 gain over q year ago and 1000 de-
crease compared with corresponding
Wednesday two years ago. Chicago
had 1000 more than week ago, 1900
less than year ago and 400 less than
two years ago. Four Missouri river
markets received 1900 more than a
week ago. $500 more than a year ago
and $500 more than two years ago.
The first half of this week the eleven
markets received $1,000 more than a
week ago. IS. 900 more than a year ago
and 5000 more than two years ago.
Chicago first halt of this week received
1.40o more than a week ago and 10000
more than a year ago.
Cattle.
Native and western cattle OF good
weight were strong to higher today.
Other classes were slow to lower.
Too many thin light animals are
coming 10 market at this time and
naturally they are badly neglected.
some of them often being held for days
before finding a clearance. Even then
-. teSo nr \
shorter quota of 600 to 900 pound Of
fern-s would work a benefit to coun-
try owneN.
Receipts Wednesday were about as
expected at $1,000, including 700 from
other markets to the packers and
around 1000 western rangers. Offerings
were about the same as week ago and
nearly 5000 short of corresponding
Wednesday year ago. Local arrivals
the first half of this week totaled -
200. around 5000 more than same
period last week and 1000 less than
corresponding three days a year ago.
Each one Of the six outside western
markets had fewer cattle than week
ago. while the increase at Kansas City
over year ago offset the decreases
at the other markets. Including Chi
cago, the seven markets were credited
with $1,000, or $4,000 less than last
Wednesday and 1000 less than year
ago. Combined arrivals for the first
three days this week totaled 2S3,ooo'
or 10000 more than a week earlier and
$1,000 more than corresponding time
a year ago.

Des Moines, Nov. 1S.--In its biennial
report officially filed with Governor
Harding today the state board Of
parole sets forth a new condition with
which II has been confronted in its
work with paroled men since the va:

In spite OF the restrictions against

that Appropriate legislation be enacted

men have proved good soldiers or have
done constructive war work they
should be finally discharged from

The board discusses to some extent
