The acute car shortage has been

From Boston comes reports of in
creased activity in medium grade
woods with prices firmer. The belief
is expressed that the market is APP
preaching normal and that dealers will
no longer have to sacrifice their
stocks. From other points. however
the market is reported dull and quiet
in the main. At Philadelphia auc-
tiOn recently only II per cent of the
offerings We're taken. and some lots
passed without a bid. This fact sug-
gests that manufacturers may be
waiting for the government auctions
TO begin November 10. Fine woods
are very strong, as heretofore, both
in America and overseas. High grade
flceces have sold high, owing to the
shortage.

LIVESTOCK

LIVESTOCK
Record prices are being paid for
fancy cattle. In-between steers are
running in excessive supply, while
strictly choice grades are scarce. The
proportion of desirable stuff is unusu
ally small. Receipts Of all grades are
about the largest of the year. In the
presence of this heavy run, the market
has ruled weak with trade slow. The
labor situatiOn is against the selling
side, however. In the hog market the
situation has been otherwise at times
with packers active buyers. Light
runs Of stuff have supported the mar
ket. Sessions are not uncommon
when receipts run heavy. but even
then quotations have often held well.
The new pig crop is considered large
and the average hog grower seems
dispOsd to use much corn in feeding,
preferring livestock prices to those
prevailing on the grain mart. Sheep
and lambs have been in large supply
and dull, weak market has ruled.

Jugs Sold at $50 Each.

Centervtlle, July 1.-THE Bookkeeping
firm of Hayes & whitacre has been
retailing whisky at $3.50 a gallon. Some
price. 1t Is true, yet this is the price
they have been charging for the liquor
and, what is better yet, they have been
getting IT. Sheriff Elgin and Deputy
Harry Trigg caught them in the act
of selling IL Sunday night and Hayes
and Whitacre are now in Jail await
Ing the time when they must face the
charge.
The method by which they had been
making sales is perhaps the most
clever Of anything which has ever been
seen in this section OF the state. A
quantity of jugs had been bought by
the men, each jug holding two gallons.
These had been taken to the home OF
Cotton" Hayes and had been placed
in a small blacksmith shop just behind
the house. 1t is said. Here tho bottom
OF the jugs had been broken out in
such a manner that a whole piece OF
the crockery about six inches in
diameter had been removed. Thru
this opening a small funnel had been
inserted and placed against the mouth
of the jug. This funnel had been made
to hold its place by means Of sealing
wax
The bottom of the jug had then been
replaced. the two men being artists in
using a combination Of sealing wax
and plaster Of paris to make the
broken crockery stick. The jug had
been filled with water up to a point
where the small part OF the funnel
touched the water. A cork was then
inserted in the funnel and more sealing
wax placed over the cork TO make sure
that II could not leak. The funnel it.
self held half pint and this was filed
with a nexceuent brand of whisky.
When a purchaser desired to sample
the whiskey before he purchased the
entire two gallons. he would turn the
jug up to his lips in that good old
country style and find that ii was ex-
cellent liquor, and just to think that
two gallons Of 1t could be purchased
for $50. 0F
After the half pint had been used
the purchaser would then discover that
he had a jug of water. Thirty times
sixteen half pints, or one gallon;
equals $3.50.

Unusual Hiding

Des Moines. July 11.-Locatins 'he

places recently unearthed around the
state by officials may be taken as
criterion of the average Illicit liquor
dealers ingenuity in secreting MS 1or-
hidden source Of income.
At the same time, however, II might
be added, Iowa sleuths would have
fair chance of finding the proveroial
needle. for so all-embracing are 1neir
methods of search. that in some cases
thew have practically torn down nous
90 ding I'D yards and even trespassed
on the forbidden premises Of woman
wardrobe in their efforts to locate hio-
den liquor.
Reports made by authorities IN va
rious Iowa cities reveal some UNIQUE
hiding places for John Barleycorn

bootleggers, but a search OF seVerai
hours failed to reveal any incrimlnaI-
ing evidence until he accidentally
stumbled over q corset lying on the
floor. The we'll known cInk or glass

II was found that the corset conceaieu
two bottles Of whisky. Further search
revealed that the woman living IN the
house. who said she was sick, mad a
large number Of bottles OF liquor IN
he'd with her and that her wardrobe
concealed additional supplies,
Search of another house also prov
ed unayailing until one detective no
ticed that broken window hao peeh
boarded I'D on both the outside and In
side. Pulling down the inside boards
the detective found that the conpart-
ment formed by the two sets OF ooaro-
ing concealed nearly hundred ootues
of whisky. Further demollshment VI
the window sill showed that all 1our
walls Of the room concealed compart-
mepts filled with bottles OF whlsKey'
uine and beer-the latter not or the
2.75 per cent variety. The house vir-
tuaIIv was torn to pieces before the
search ended.
Another hiding place literally was
"unearthed" when dog digging IN a
back yard found his way obstructed ov
a bottle of red eye" as the bootleg
gers term cheap whisky. Detectives
who happened to be searching the
place at the time dug further and founo
a large supply of liquor had been bur-
led.
Among other hiding places were hay
stacks, rubbish heaps old weiis' caves
hollow trees and mattresses.
Great difficulty is found By the au
thorities in preventing shipments OF
liquor because it would be necessary
to search nearly every package carried

thing from axle grease" to "condens'

with the harmless medicines. One
very popular method which house,
keepers are adopting more and more,
is that of sealing the cork to the bottle
with sealing wax after using a poison
GUS medicine. In this way, one cannot
pull out the cork hastily and use
poisonous drug by mistake-it requires
distinct effort to pry out the cork eacn
time, and the necessary delay insures
close inspection. To be sure 1t Is
nuisance to reseal the cork each time
with sealing wax, but the sense OF
safety more than repays one for this
extra trouble. Where there are chill

portance Of conservation Of water sup
plies and the creation of natural parks
of forested areas to aid in moisture
conservation. Recent Investigator
has shown that the water level OF
Iowa has dropped twelve feet IN fifty
years and that something must be
done in Upper Iowa and the other
upper valley states to stop the rush
ing Of water to the large rivers. DR..
