There Will Be a

General anticipation that there
will be heavy demand for livestock
during the fall and winter months
and that prices for finished animals
will be well maintained. is expressed
by livestock men connected with the

conditions is reflected in the main
tenance Of exceptionally good prices

days has the price been lower than

animals have been taken quickly by
the pork packers represented ON the

Upon his return from the east this
week, Secretary s.. s.. Jensen Of the
Ogden Packing & Provision company
announced that several large con-
tracts for meat shipments to Eng
land and France. as well as to army
camps In the United tSates. has been
awarded the Ogden company. In line
with this statement the company has
also announced the building of a
larger freezer to occupy space of so
by 100 feet, in which meat will be
prepared for long distance shipments
This freezer will have refrigerator
lines more extensive than any other
unit in the plant and temperature
Of five degrees above zero will be
its maximum when the equipment
for cooling is in operation. The or

both pork and beef and show that
