largely correct this deficiency. ST.
rammany parish also needs 1000
new farmers within the next decade
or so to settle upon its lands. Some
people are wondering where the
farmers will come from to take up
our lands when we have drained and
improved them. Some tell US that
all our farmers will have to be inn
ported from the North, for the
natives don't know how to farm and
never will fearn. Is that true, or
are we unfair to our children?
Think! If one-half of our school
children were taught agriculture and
encouraged to take up farming as an
occupation, would that not largely
solve the problem of agricultural de-
ve!opment in this parish?
. What are we educating our child
rem for? Why, under the present
condition, we are educating them for
clerk1hips and jobs in New Orleans
or elsewhere. What can they do in
st. Tammany parish after they finish
the elementary or high schools?
What industries have we here in

Wheat-IndicatiOns of rain or snow in
the Southwest and easier opening cables
made the early tone. The closing cables,
however, showed a recovery and a higher
close at Liverpool. Advices were to the
effect that Argentine offers were pressing.
There were liberal deliveries here on De-
ccmber contracts, which widened the
some further. Receipts 1T all points We're
again liberal and advices from the
Southwest predicted cash wheat would
be for sale freely whenever the country
points could pay a dollar. Kansas re
ports indicated some Improvement IN
their crop conditions, but there are still
unfavOrable reports coming from the
north central and northeastern counties
The wheat situation just now is still
date supplies Of the odd crop of United
States and Canadian wheat and the
reiterated expressions of free Argentine
offerings of new wheat. Until our pri-
mary receipts show smaller or the eXpor-
demand picks up, especially for United
States wheat, we must expect twO-slded
Qarkets.
Corn and oats-Corn and oats were
very firm. Receipts continue liberal
cash article and Winnipeg reported q
better demand there for feed stuffs too
especially oats and barley. 1t would take
but little enc0ura cement for these
coarse grain markets 10 do better. All
the bear news is out on corn and oats.
Anything that comes must be In the way
OF constructiveness.
Pruvisions-The market was dull, with
little change. Hogs were a shade easier.
The demand for cash product was slow,
but consumption seems going on at fair

SWINE 10 TO
Is CENTS LOWER
Cattle Market Is DemOraliZed
Veal Prices Slump.
RANGE OF HOG PRICES
With receints around 7.5OO. the mar

With receipts around 1900, the mar
ket yesterday was rather out Of line with
other of the principal hog markets of
the country and lower prices prevailing
elsewhere, swine prices were 10 to 50
cents lower in trade on the local live
stock exchange today. Values during the
closing hour Of the market yesterday
were somewhat lower, but the bulk of
the sales were made at the opening
prices.
Local packers again established the
market, but they were not as active as
usual. They bought heavy hogs prin-
cipally, while the shippers took the
lighter grades.
Trade was somewhat better after the
start and fair clearance for the day was
anticipated.
The cattle market was termed by COM
mission men as demOralized. Prices were
fully % to 80 cents lower generally on
practically all grades, while there we're
spots that were even lower.
The weak tone of the market was due
to the inactivity of the packers end this
in turn was due to the slowing up of
meat orders from the East and to the
fact that packers now have their coolers
full Of meat, with no outlet.
One Of the principal local packers has
around 1.2O0 cattle unbutchered and the
coolers Of the concern are practically
full.
There was fair demand for calves at
the opening and prices. were steady, but
Eastern orders were cancelled shortly
after initial dealings and prices fell. In
fact, after the cancellation of early or
ders there was practically no demand for
calves.
Receipts for the day ran close to 400
calves.
With around 300 sheep and lambs on
the market, the quality only fair and
the demand the same, prices were about
steady ON the quality offered.

NEW YORK, Dec 15.-Although the
general list showed more or less irreg-
ularity in a market that displayed a
moderate lessening Of activity, the ses-
sion furnished enough features of
strength to indicate that bur1ish tao
ties were still being pursued with sue
cess. Many stocks that had been rather
inactive lately came to the front with a
rush, and several specialties made sharp
advances. In certain instances this was
due to short covering, while in others It
was the reflex of favorable news or the
imminent expectation of it.
Advances Of one to nearly fiEe points
accompanied these operations. the most
striking gains being established by Cali
fcrnia Petroleum. Union Oil, General As
phalt and Pacific Oil among the petrO-
leurn shares. Crucible led the steels, al
though Bethlehem B. for a time showed
considerable strength. Chandler made a
net gain of more than two points on the
announcement of the regular dividend.
The leather stocks also showed a better
undertOne, with good gains by the Amer
lean Hide & Leather issues and Central
Leather. Among the other industrial
specialties that were active and strong,
were Otis Elevator and WOrthinCton
Pump, both common and referred. Key
stone Tire & Rubber continued its rise
and made new high level for the pres
ent upward movement.
The rails were only fairly steady, and
