ed little better tone after the early
decline. At the low point, the Deem

cents from the high point of last week.
This, coupled with continuance of wet
weather, may change the attitude Of
the country little in regard to sell

today regarding loadings and offerings
to arrive.

the United States never qualify for
food, is one Of the recent revelations
of the department of agriculture. The
loss amounts of $45,OOO,OOO annually
1t is pointed out that one third Of this
loss is due to development of the germ
in fertile eggs, and can be avoided by
eliminating ROSTERS after the breeding
season. Judgment in gathering, handl-
ing and marketing would reduce the
loss still further. A summary Of the
weeks trade follows:
Eggs.
During the past month, the move
ment of storage eggs to the retail trade
has been Is per cent greater than a
year ago. Larger supplies however
are available tc draw from. Storage
stocks at the beginning of October were
% per cent greater than previous year.
Prices in eggs have increased slight
ly during the week. Fresh eggs are be-
coming increasingly scarce.
Butter.
The increases in production due to
the fall make have ceased, and a re-
verse movement has set in, brought
about by colder weather. Demand
slackened slightly during the week.
Prices are somewhat lower.
Poultry.
Slight fluctuations in the poultry
market occurred, but the prices are
practically at the same level as week
ago. There has been a slight falling
off in receipts over much Of the coun-
try, but the demand is strong.

STOCK AND CROP NOTES.

British Columbia's honey crop last
year amounted to nearly 225 tons, the
largest yield yet.
J. H. Mitchell of Sites, Idaho, re.
Gently disposed of 81 head of hogs in
Spokane for 1854.
The valuations of the various classes
of live stock on farms and ranges in
the state on January l, 1919, were as
follows: Horses, $27,S76,O00; mules,
$2,160,00O; mich cows, $4,000, 900; ;
other cattle, $11,463,000; sheep, 49,,
100000; swine, $6,974,OOO; or total
valuation of all live stock of $73,S77,,
900, compared with an aggregate val,
uation of all classes of stock of $76,,
$4,000 in 1918, $61,552,OOO in 1917
$58. 1000 in 1876, and $62, 900 in
1915. These figures are compiled by
E. T. Marchetti, Spokane, field agent
department of agriculture. Consider
alton must be given to the fact that
of the $11, 424,000 increase in valuation
of all classes of live stock for the
state since 1915, the increase in mum
bers of certain classes contributes 50,
AGE, 800, and the actual increase in
value of proportionate numbers is
$7,958, 200. In other words, if the tOta
number of live stock in 1915 and 1915
had been the same, the increased val
uation of live stock for the four years
during which the cost of feed ant
labor increased materially, would be
$7,958 200, or II per cent.

8-HOUR DAY Is NEW
RAILROAD ORDER
six-Day Week for All Employees,
If Possible-Is Govern
ment Move.

Orders to work out an eight
hour schedule and, where possible,
give all their employees one day off
a week have been received over
the United States from r. H. Ash
ton, regional director for the U.
S. railroad administration. This
order, looking to universal eight
hour day, is said to be the most
sweeping ever issued, affecting
some 100000 railroad men in the
United States. The changes, one
railroad official said, are the re-
suit of an order from the war la
Dor board.
The order is due, it is said, to
the fact that under the present
agreement with some of the Or
ganized railroad employees, requir-
ing time and a half for all over.
time, the pay rolls are running
too high. 1t is believed that a
strict eight-hour day will remedy
this. Another factor is said to be
the growing demand for six-day
week.

WILL GIVE SOLDIERS
NEW INSURANCE
U. S. War Risk Board Announces
Six Sorts for Soldiers and
Sailors.

Washington, D. C.-Conditions
under which soldiers or sailors
now holding government life insur-
ance may convert these policies
within five years into other forms,
are announced by Colonel H. D.
Lindsey of the war risk insurance
bureau. Rates will be made public
soon.
There will be six different kinds
of insurance ordinary life, 20 pay
ment life, 30-payment life, 2O-year
endowment, 3O-year endowment and
endowment payable at the age of
81. All policies will contain clau-
ses providing that in case of per-
manent total disability the gov
eminent will make monthly pay
ments and premium payments will
cease.
: Means Old Age Pensions.
This amounts virtually to old
age pensioning and disability in
surance and insures that no man
who has served in the army or ma
Wy need ever be destitute if he
carries government insurance.
All policy holders will partici-
pate in dividends and earnings of
over 81 per cent will go into divi-
dends. Since the reserves will be
invested in government securities
it is certain that there will be
large dividends periodically.
Collections of premiums will be
made through postmasters.
Issue 4,4e0, 900 Policies.
Any man now in military or ma
val service holding government
term life insurance can obtain the
new forms, but the amount will be
limited to his present holdings
| The government urges all men to
continue to carry their present pol
icies, but to convert these as soon
as they are financially able with
in the next five years.
