BETTER TONE in
THE HOG MARKET
Prices Show Some Advance from the
Weeks Low Spot-Medium and
Heavy Weight Beef Steers
Lower-Sh0rn Lambs Up

South st. Paul, Mimi, April 80, 1921.
Fresh declines on dressed beef at cas-
ern centers and fairly generous re-
ceipts of cattle here and elsewhere
this week produced further weakness
in beef cattle. Local supplies again
ran fairly heavy to beef steers, and
medium and heavier weights are clos
ing 90 TO soc lower, with best light
and handyweight steers about steady.
Fair shipping and export demand de-
.veloped at Chicago during the week
and part of the early losses were re-
gained there, with slight traces of i'm
provement evident here az the close.
Beef steer trade was featured by the
sale of a load Of choice 1850 pound
Herefords at $500, but these were the
best that have been here for some time
and practical top on heavy steers to
packers was $3.50, with a fair showing
of sales from $500 to $3.50. Good
grade steers under 1000 pounds aver
age have sold in load lots from $3.50
to $7.S5, with common and medium
grades OF lightweight steers largely
from $500 to $500. A few handy
weight heifers sold from $500 to $500,
but bulk of cows and heifers went ut
$3.50 10 $3.50. The bull trade has
been fairly active with bulk of the
heavy bolognas selling from $4.25 to
$4.75. Yeals are soc higher for the
week, with packer top at $3.50, and a
few to city butchers up to $500.
Stockers and feeders are generally %
to SOC lower for the week, closing with
a fair clearance.
The hog market closed about 4Oc
higher on the average compared with
the weeks low spot. with a better
feeling in the market on later days Of
the week. Range today 1928 to $3.50,
bulk s7.55 to $7.S5. Good to choice
pigs mostly S7.75 TO $500. Choice
clipped lambs of "a lb. average at

GIVE HIN A SQUARE DEAL

II all farmers organizations would
do what the Clay County, Indiana,
Farmers Association, the farm-burean
organization Of that county, did, there
would be a lot more satisfied city bust
ness men and a lot more friendship
and cooperation between the business
men in town. The members of this
association needed eighty-six tons of
commercial line, 440 tons of ground
limestone and n big order of fertiliz-
ers. They pooled their orders and OBJ
tanned the goods through a local deal
err. They saved themselves $1696.20.
These men all came for their goods
at once. They paid cash for the fer
tiliZer and lime as they hauled them
away. The merchant received his
money promptly, and so in turn was
able to meet his own bills. He was
saved a lot of trouble. He was saved
storage space. Doubtless the railroad
saved some time and car space in
handling a large consignment at once
II a dealer is dishonest and takes
advantage of the farmers to hold them
up in price, or il he refuses TO give
service, then let the farmers do their
own merchandising. But If the dealer
in town is willing TO do his share and
to cooperate. then he can save the
farmers much time and trouble by
handling their business for them

DATA ON PROPOSED TARIFF

Attached herewith Is a brief COM
parison of duties on leading agricul-
tural products as proposed in the
Fordney Emergency Tariff Bill, and as
existed in the Dingley Act of 1897. the
Payne-Aldrich Act Of 1899, and the
Underwood Act Of 1913 which is still
in force.
American agriculture in the present
emergency has sound claim to any
tarig protection that will really be OF
benefit The feeling is general. how
ever, that the increasing of tariff du-
ties is a question that needs very
careful consideration.
This statement of comparative du-
ties and of recent imports and ex-
ports. has been prepared by Mr.. VAL

of the tariff question. ~
