LIVE STOCK TRADE
HIGHLY IRREGULAR
Markets Unsettled During the Week
Cattle Uneven, Most Kinds Clos
Ing Lower-Hogs Make
Some Gain
(By u. S. Bureau OF Markets and
Mimi DEPARTMENT OF Agriculturel

(By u. S. Bureau OF Markets and
. MINI. Department of Agricultural
South st. Paul, Mimi, March 26
1921.-Live stock trade of the past
week has been more or less unsettled
on account of uncertainty as to the out
come of the packer-labor dispute. but
with the adjustment of that situation
happily accomplished through the me-
dunn of governmental agencies, the
market will not be given a chance to
move along i'm a normal way.
All branches of the trade have been
very erratic. The cattle market was
especially uneven and trading from
day TO day largely on a "catch-as-
catch-can" basis. All men i'm the trade
are agreed that cattle have made some
decline but no two men agree as to the
amount. of the loss. Choice light
weight fat cattle, both steers and heif-
ers, show the least decline, selling at
the weeks close steady to 25c lower
than on opening days. Most other
classes show a decline of % to soc for
the week, with some of the commoner
steers showing even more loss A few
small lots of good beef steers reached
1926 to $3.50, with best in load lots
at $500. Bulk of common and medium
grades sold at the close from 1915 to
$500. Seasonal scarcity prevented
marked declines in she stock. Best
heifers in the weeks trade sold from
1925 TO $S.25, with closing prices on
bulk of she stock S4.25 to $3.50. Can
ners and cutters are selling today
from $500 to $500. with most bologna
bulls from $500 to $3.50, and a few
butcher bulls on up to $3.50. Seasonal
increase i'm veal calf receipts put the
skids under the market, this class be-
ing discounted $50, and putting
prices back to a pre-war basis, with
best at the close selling at $3.50. Sup
ply of stockers and feeders has exceed
ed the demand and most of these kinds
have declined soc or more, with many
of the common and medium kinds back
to where they are selling to packers
for their Gamer and cutteAvalue.
The hog market has been the most
irregular i'm many weeks, closing with
a net gain of about % to soc. Range
at the close. $3.50 to $10.25, bulk $g25
to S10.25. Top pigs $11.50. Sheep and
lambs are about steady for the period
good to choice lambs selling from
1926 to 1915 mostly, with a few reach
ing 1906 and best light ewes cashing
at 5000. One string OF shearing lambs
sold at $S.75.

Binghamton, N. Y, March 29.-The
tenth anniversary of the establishment
of the first county farm bureau was
celebrated here on March 81.
Although the first farm bureau in
the United States was started as an
adjunct to the Binghampton chamber
of commerce with finances provided
by the United States Department of
Agriculture, the Binghamton chamber
of IN and the Lackawana rail-
road, the farmers sOOn realized that
il was necessary for them to have
absolute control of their own organic
alton. Consequently a meeting of the
farmers was called to take over from
the chamber of commerce full respon-
sibility for the farm bureau.
O. Z. Bradfute, vice president of the
American Farm Bureau federation,
who gave the principal address at the
anniversary, said the success of the
farm bureau movement was due to the
fact that the farmers were determined
TO cooperate in the solving of their
own problems. He continually stress
ed the point that the farmer neither
warts nor expects any special privi-
lege. He merely seeks justice and an
opportunity to function in making a
better place for all the people.
w. j. Spillman OF Washington as
serted that he had no idea when ne
went to Binghamton as a department
of agriculture official to assist in the
organization of a farm bureau that he
was helping to sow seed which would
grow into the American Farm Bureau
federation, the largest and most pow
erful farmers organization. He de-
clared that every farmer in America
should become a member of his local
farm bureau in order to have a part
in the state and national program to
secure economic justice.

SHORTHORN BREEDERS MEET

The Hand County Shorthorn Breed
ers met at an oyster supper at the st.
Lawrence Hotel, Monday night. and
discussed plans of interest to the AS
s~ociation and the Shorthorn business.
Forty-three enthusiasts bucked the
mud and snow drifts to attend the
meeting.
A committee of three was appointed
to cooperate with similar committee >
from,lthe other breed associations &,
work out plans for the first Hand
County Live Stock Show. to be held at
st. Lawrence the week before the
State Fair.
Decision was made to hold a Short
horn sale at St. Lawrence April both.
John Burget of st. Lawrence IVES cleo
ted sales manager. The Magness
Brothers will cry the sale. Shorthorn
breeders in the County who we're not
at the meeting should get in touch
with MIR. Burget imnediatelv ana
make their entries. While this will
be primarily q bull sale, a few females
will be offered.
Hand County Shorthorn breeders
are optimistic. The general discus
sions brought out the fact that the
pure bred i've stock prices during the
past few years have been too high
for the general good Of the industry
and that the farmer who needed the
better bred stock would not and could
not ouy because OF the high price.
Conditions In Hand County are rap
idly improving. Many well bred in
dividuals are being sold The demand
for bulls Is strong and the sale should
prove satisfactory.

A DIRECT HIGHWAY DOWN THE WEST

A DIRECT HIGHWAY DOWN THE WEST
COAST OF FLORIDA-"There is no official
highway connecting the Georgia seaboard with
the Florida West Coast" says the Fitzgerald
(Ga.) Leader Enterprise and Press and this pa
Per thinks "such Guli-Atlantic highway should
bring many additional tourists to swell the tide
OF those the Dixie Highway brings"
The value OF such road can be quickly seen,
for, while persistent effort has been made to
develop roads feeding the East Coast OF Florida,
the West Coast highways have not received the
attention they deserve.
AS it is, many of the automobiles bound for
points on the West Coast have been entering the
state by eastern routes, then, by following trans
versing routes arriving at their destination along
the West Coast. Direct routes are more to be
desired because they distribute the traffic more
evenly and eliminate unnecessary mileage, and
most important are big factors in the develop
ment Of territory that is reached only by circuit
Gus routes under the present system of roads.
The Leader Enterprise and Press outlines the
proposed route as follows:
"From Savannah, in Chatham to Clyde in
Bryan, to Redsvile in Tattna to Lyons in
Toombs, to Mt. Vernon in Montgomery, to Nc
Rae in Telfair, to Fitzgerald in Ben Hill to
Ocilla in Irwin, Nashville in Berren, Vadosta
in Lowndes, where it will ntersect with the Ma
tional Highway and get many tourists coming
north in the sprng, thence to Madison, Perry,
Mayo and other Florida points down the West
Coast to Tampa
Taking it from the Florida point of view, this
route Iou1d oive TamDa and Intermediate DOntS
north direct highway up the West Coast and
the necessity of such route is already general
ly recognized, although concentrated effort
has been made to secure it.
Florida cannot have too many inets and out
letsfor travel Every additional one is asset
to the state, and with the cooperation of other
states there is no why they could not be

sibe route for nine-tenths of the northern travel

efforts and their readiness to again cooperate

that we may be able to create enough interest in
the Georgia counties affected to have this high
