STILL HOGS GO
TOWARD BOTTOM
ANOTHER DOLLAR OFF, MAKING
$3.50 DECLINE WITHIN
THREE DAYS. ..-..
Dealers Believe the Market Will Sta.
bilize Around the SIS
Mark
DAILY Herald. Sept. IL.


For the third day in succession hogs
declined the second drop of a dollar
in two days. Since Monday $3.50 has
been chopped off the price of hogs,
the biggest decline in similar period
in the history of the markets. Tops
sold today at Louisville at $3.50, the
lowest price known this year Deal
ers generally believe that when the
market reaches SIS it will become sta
bilized. They do not believe that
conditions now warrant the predio-
ton that the market will go below
that figure.
Cattle have been inactive and un-
certain for several days and a decided
slump in values within the week is
generally predicted. Sheep and lambs
are steady.
There were no changes locally in
the produce and corn markets.

OURS Is A SAFE AND SATISFAC.
TORY STORE WITH WHICH
TO DEAL.

One feature Of our business is the
ono-price system which we rigidly en-
force This system is too well estab-
lished in modern merchandise to need
any explanation; yet there are many
stores that persist in fixing movable
prices on their goods, thus forcing the
customer to. haggle and bargain for
the lowest price. And with such store
one can never be sure that he has
received the best price; for a shrewd-
er barGainer may secure an even low
er price.
Every article in our store is mark
ed at a fair price, and that price is
quoted to every patron. A child can
shop here with the certainty of re-
coiying the same prices as the most
experienced shopper. You are safe
in buying anything at this store, both
as regards to price and quality.
