IMPROVED TONE IN CATTLE MARKET
HOGS STRONG; LAMBS LOWER.
Trade in cattle which has been indiffer-
ent for some time past, took on new ac-
tivity today at strong to 80 cents higher
prices than last weeks close. Receipts
were light. Killers were short on supplies
and there was a good demand for stock
ers and feeders. Hog prices were firm
with trade active The top was so 10 and
bulk of sales $9.T5 to $1005. Sheep and
lambs were 25 to so cents lower. Liberal
receipts and lower prices elsewhere caused
the decline here.
TODAY'S RECEIPTS.
Receipts today were 1000 cattle. 5000
hogs and 5000 sheep compared with 20-
500 cattle, 11,000- hogs, and $500 sheep a
week ago, and 1880 cattle, %, 100 hogs.
and 10.150 sheep a year ago.
BEEF CATTLE.
Light receipts forced killers into active
competition for fat cattle today and prices
were higher. Fat steers were up 20 cents
and cows end heifers up 20 to 90 cents.
Trade was active and everything fat
enough to draw killers bids sold readily.
No choice steers arrived. Fair to good
short fed steers sold at 50 to so. and warm
ed up classes from $3.50 to 50. Grass fat
steers sold at $3.50 to $3.50 and were in
limited supply. The principal decrease
was in range cattle Cows and heifers
which have been selling usually low rallied
more than steers. Few fed grades were

Must Pay OFF War Debt.

The fundamental fact which at pres
ent dominates the governments flnan-
cial situation is that seven and a half
billions of its war Indebtedness mature
within the next two and a half years.
OF this amount, two and a half bill
lions are floating debt and five bill
lions victory notes and war savings
certificates. The fiscal program of the
government must be determined with
reference to these maturities. Sound
policy demands that government ex-
penditures be~reduceds to. the lowest
amount which will permit the various
services to operate efficiently and that
government receipts from taxes and
salvage be maintained sufficiently high
to provide for current requirements,
including interest and sinking fund

same time retire the floating debt and

Honesty in merchandising is gen. orally being accepted as the best policy but there are still Feme things which it would seem sS me should be corrected
 I believe that there should be a law enacted by the United States government which would require that all manufacturers place on each suit of clothes a label which would tell just exactly the charac- ter and quality of that particular piece of goods. If it is true that it is all wool, let it say so. If the suit is only half wool then let the label proclaim the fact that this is a suit containing fifty per cent wool and fifty per cent cotton
 It does not seem peculiar to you that when we do business with a bank we have full knowledge of it's assets and liabilities. The goverE- ment requires that a statement be made public at regular and irregu- lar intervals for the protection of the public The government re- quires that a newspaper should print sworn statements as to it's circulation at regular intervals so that the advertisers in the paper may know through the government statements the circulation they are getting So on down the line the government shows a policy of 'Let the facts be known"
 Some people want to know whether an article is imported or not and seem to take pride in dis covering the word imported" from France, England or Germany on the article I shouldn't see why we wouldn't have just as much pride and a greater knowledge of pro- duct if it were to say Made in America" and then with an ex- pIanation of the quality of the goods stated in percentages of the actual materials used For instance. this label should tell the public that a shirt is made of. madras or percale or that shirt is half silk, etc. The public is the buyer of the goods in the stores. The public is the gov ernment. Why then shouldn't the public through the government re- quire the manufacturers to place labels on goods so as to clearly in-
 dicate what is in the goods? I be- lieve the customer has the right to know just the quality of the goods he buys and I believe that this would be the proper method of ac- quainting the customer with what he buys
 Do you think such houses as Will son Bros, or Hirsh Wickwire would object to labelling every one of their shirts, suits and other articles of haberdashery? I do not, and if [ were in a legislative position I feel that I would be introducing one of the things which would be for a great good if I were to introduce a bill which would bring about the acquaintance of the public with what they purchase by the manu- lecturers labelling their goods.
 Most of the suits in my store are priced at S50.00 or more. This IS because we do not care to have In stock suits that are not all wool
 and because we know that the pub lie in Phoenix is willing to pay the
 price of the goods provided it gets | what is represented. Let the old time regime of Let the buyer be- ware" pass out entirely. Give the ! purchaser all the facts and then ! merchandising will have reached 1 even a higher plane than it has now l attained.

1t isn't always the price you pay that determines real val ue - sometimes excessive prices are asked for inferior quality merchandise. Noth- ing here is overpriced. For instance if you spend soc here for an article you can feel sure that you have re- ceived an article whose real value is soc. You have our assurance for this. Proof positive will reveal itself upon careful inspection of our merchandise.
 There never was a time when anyone could really afford to pay more for an article than it was worth. But now it is trebly important that you receive 100 per cent value for every cent expend- ed. Here you can find de- pendable qualities at prices that give you what you are entitled to-.
