ACTIVE DEMAND SHOWN
TN CATTLE MARKET
Hogs Still on the Toboggan Slide
Prices Steady on Sheep
and Lambs.

An active demand for stockers and
feeders in the past two days has re-
vived the cattle market. Prices for
practically all classes are 25 to so cts.
higher than Wednesday the low day
this week. Wednesday $50 cars of
stock cattle went to country points.
and Thursday 585 cars. Hog prices are
still on the down grade. The decline
today 25 to 40 cents took the market
into low position for the year. A
scant supply Of sheep and lambs sold
at steady prices.
This Weeks Receipts.
Receipts this week were 66,575 cat
tie, 1880 calves, $4,000 hogs, and
23,050 sheep, compared with 64,275
cattle, 1882 calves, 50,799 hogs, and
26,552 sheep last week, and 10000
cattle, 1880 hogs, and 10000 sheep
a year ago.
Beef Cattle.
Though total receipts of cattle early
in the week were large the per cent
fat enough for killing purposes, ex-
cept cows, was relatively small. How
ever killers depressed prices until late
Wednesday when they started active
Operations at rising prices. At the
low point Wednesday prices were
fully $1.00 under last weeks close.
Since then, half the decline was re-
gained. No prime corn fat steers ar
rived. Some good short fed steers
sold at SLIPS to $12.75. Grass fat
steers sold at $3.50 to $11.00 with can
ner steers down to $4.25. Cows broke
as much as steers early in the week
and made nearly full recovery in the
past two days. Veal calves were
steady to so cents lower.
Suckers and Feeders.
In the first two days Of the week
demand for stockers and feeders was
extremely dull with heavy supply
accumulated in the yards. Buying
started up late Wednesday and in the
past two days shipments were the
! largest of the season. Prices today
averaged so cents higher than We'd
nesday.
Hogs.
Hog prices broke % to 40 cents to-
day making drop of $1.15 for the
week. Today's decline took the mar
ket into a new low position since Dec
ember 1916. The top price today was
S11.65. and the bulk of the hogs sold
at SLIPS to $11.50. Pigs sold readily
as % cents lower prices. and they
show about the same decline for the
week as hogs. Receipts are increas-
ing. IN the five days this week re-
ceipts were the largest of the season.
Sheep and Lambs.
The few sheep and lambs offered
today were plain native grades that
sold slowly at steady prices. Offerings
this week were the commonest of the
season, mostly natives. Fat lambs
are quoted at $1,000 to S11.00, COM
mon to fair kinds $500 to $1,000, and
culls as low as $500, yearlings at $500
to $S.75, weathers $3.50 to S7.25, and
ewes $3.$$ to $500.
%. Horse and Mules.
A light supply of horses and mules
sold at stronger prices, and limited
demand for farm mares and chunks
was carried over owing to lack of af-
ferings. The general market though
dull for the season Of the year has
| improved some compared with last
week

Southern Ports
For Exports

Excellent facilities for handling ex
port shipments of live stock were
found at the ports of Charleston,
ton, S. c., and Newport News, Va, By
a representative of the Bureau of
Markets, United States Department OF
Agriculture, who recently inspected
these ports.
'At North Charleston which is
about seven miles from the central
TART of the city proper, docks and
warehouses were erected by the War
Department during the war. These
we're transferred to the Shipping
Board" his report said.
1.-THE warehouses and dock facilities
at Charleston are of the most up-to-
date type and all are fireproof. The
stockyards and barns are also new
and in good condition, but are not
fiji eproof. They are located about two
miles from the dock and therefore it
would be necessary under usual con
ditions to drive or lead animals from
the barns to the dock. If there wele
TO delays, however, the arrangements
are such that the animals could be
loaded directly from the car to the
beat. Both the Seaboard Air Line and
the Southern Railway have direct con
nections with the docks. The chief
drawbacks at Charleston are the few
boats going there and the fact that
there is no one but Army officers to
handle live stock shipments"
While the facilities at Newport
News are not new or up-to-date, they
are conveniently located, according to
the bureaus representative.
The sheds where cattle are held are
only a few hundred feet from the
peers. The tracks of the Chesapeake
G Ohio Railway are so arranged that
cattle may be unloaded from the car to
The barns or, in case the boat IS
ready, from the car to the boat. The
man who owns and operates tn yards
is prepared to sell feed in large guam
titles for export shipments and, If de-
sired, he handles the live stock and
charges a fixed rate per day per ami
nal, for care, feed and loading on the

perience in handling live stock, hav-
ing handled 100000 horses for the

cattle for the Belgians since the

Why a Thermometer

Did you ever wonder what happened
when the mercury climbs in the glass
tube of the thermometer on the back
porch?
With one or two exceptions, metals
expand when they become heated.
Mercury, or quicksilver, is metal as
we'll as fluid
In the thermometer the mercury
is sealed in bulb at the bottom. The
tube above the bulb is very small
smaller sometimes than hair. Thus
the slightest movement of the mer-
curry in the bulb will force the mer-
curry in the tube a great distance.
When the air around the thel-
mometer grows warm the mercury in
the bulb expands and shoves part OF
itself up the tube. The tube is made
thick so that part of it will act as a
magnifying glass so that you can see
the tiny column of mercury within.
The best thermometers are those
with the largest bulbs and the small
est tubes. The larger the surface OF
the bulb the quicker the action of
the instrument, and the smaller the
bore of the tube the less the expan-
sion or contraction necessary to cause
movement in the bulb to show in
the tube.
Clinical thermometers, used by
physicians, are very delicately made,
and the celebration, or correction OF
the scale has to be carefully done.
The slightest difference in the size
of the tube along its length will make
a difference in the reading. The ex-
pansion of the glass also has to be
taken into account.

Chinese Names

Fukien, China, derives its name from
its principal towns, Foochow Flu and
Kienning Flu, and means happy estaD-
Ishment,' according to Miss 81 Tsung.
writing for the China Bureau Of Put.
IL Information. 1t is mountainous
country with the special characteristic
that its chains are almost parallel, hiQ
der the development of the rivers.
The rivers of Fukien run rapidly
from the mountain to the sea, and
are not good for commerce, the Min
River being the exception. The water
is very shallow in some places and
very deep in others. Many boats are
wrecked every year in the shallow
waters. To sail up the river the boats
must be pulled with bamboo ropes.
Sometimes the current becomes ex-
.ceedingly rapid and the boatmen can
not ascend and must wait for weeks.
The province of Fukien has 24,870,-
600 inhabitants, of peculiar customs
and dress. Their language comprises
several dialects and is very difficult
tc learn. The principal dialects are
Foochow and Amony, among which
are many variations of sounds. Means
of communication are thus very trying
because of the variety of the dialects.
Lacquer is the most famous product
OF the province, being exported TO
many parts of the world.
