MARKET REPORT
Live stock prices higher General trade active

I Oc iiSI dl u que dCJlFc
 Cattle receipts today were the smallest of any Monday this year and the market showed an active turn at higher prices. The general opinion is that receipts from now on will be light. Hog prices which ruled strong last week made a further slight gain today and the general market is on a $1O.- co basis. Receipts continue short of a year ago. Sheep and lambs were fully steady with last weeks best prices and 10 to 15 cents higher than the close.
 Today's Receipts
 Receipts today were 1000 cattle, 5000 hogs, and Ill., O9O sheep, compared with 13,000 cattle, 1000 hogs, and 5000 sheep a week ago, and 13,000 cattle, 12,8OO hogs, and 1915 sheep a year ago.
 Beef Cattle
 Though a strike among coal mines was in progress 1t was no matetial consequ- ence in the live stock mar ket. Receipts were light and this fator sent buyers into the pens early. Prices ruled strong to 25 cents higher in the extreme, most Iy 10 to 15 cents up. Good handy and light weight weight steers were in bet ter demand than for some time past. The supply of heavy steers was small and largely equal to demand. Cows and heifers and mixed yearlings were 10 to15 cents higher. Veal calves were stronger.
 Stockers and Feeders
 Prices for thin cattle ad- vanced as much as fat steers, with the trade active. The movement of Southwest cattle to Northern grass is under way and will continue for the next six weeks.
 Hogs
 The hog market is in a strong position with prices generally 10 cents higher than last weeks close, and 25 to 35 cents higher than the tow point last week. The top price was S1O.1O, and bulk of sales $9.80 to$10. .O5. Receiptsare materially short of urgent requirements, and packers in order to keep their killing forces in opera tion are having to buy on other markets and ship here for slaughter. Pigs sold mastly at $9.00 to $9. .65 and were quoted stronger.
 Sheep and Lambs
 Though offerings in the sheep division had wet feec- es and weighed heavy, trade was active with prices quot ed strong to 15 cents high CT. Shorn Texas wethers sold at 1925 to $9.50, shorn lambs $12.5O to 1900, shorn yearlings $12.25, and wool ed lambs $15.0 to $15. 50.
 Horses and Mules
 Opening trade in horses was about the same as a week ago. Pricee were un- changed. There was a fair ly good inquiry for mules.

words, but she has no existence in an
official sense because there is no rec
ord in Somerset House that she was
ever born.
The discovery was made when an
occasion arose which called for the
production of the woman's birth
certificate. At the registrars Office.
after the officials had made search.
she was informed that no such per-
son as herself existed, according to
the records. The astonished woman
consulted her parents, and then it was
discovered that her birth had not
been registered, although it took
place - years ago.
The omission was due to a chapter
of accidents. The father was travel
ing when his daughter was born, and
the mother had very dangerous ILL
ness Immediately afterward The
question of the baby's birth registra-
ton was overlooked, and later father
and mother each assumed that the
other had attended to this formality.
To her further establishment the
young woman learned that the omis-
sion could not be rectified The law
lays down that no certificate of
birth can be issued after the lapse of
seyen years.
Daughter and parents set out on
their quest to solve the riddle, How
can she prove that she is she?" BY

American Movie Stars
Now in Jerusalem

Twenty stars of the American film
world arrived in Jerusalem recently to
prepare for the filming of the Old Tes-
lament story of King David.
The big scene in the play is to be
the fight between David and Goliath
which will be staged few miles north
of Jerusalem. Biblical accuracy is
not strictly to be adhered to, since
the scenario provides a love scene
after the battle.
About 5000 persons are to be en-
ployed in the filming of the play. Five
thousand sheep, 1000 camels and 1000
goats are also to be used.
This will be the first time a pro-
duction of this magnitude has been
filmed in the Holy Land. Apart from
the appropriateness of the country
for the filming of Biblical stories, it
is declared that Palestine is unsur-
passed for film productions owing,

Bull Moose Walk Softly

Although taller than an ordinary
horse. weighing more than half ton,
and adorned with widespreading ant
lers, the bull moose stalks with
ghostly silence through the thickest
forests. where man can scarcely
move without being betrayed by the
loud cracking of dry twigs.
In summer the moose loves low
lying, swampy forests, interspread
with : shallow lakes and sluggish
streams. In such places 1t often
wades up to its neck in lake to feed
en- succulent water plants. and when
reaching to the bottom becomes en-
tirely submerged. These visits to the
water are sometimes by day, but
usually by night. especially durin

the season when the calves are young
and the horns of the bulls are but
partly grown.
Late in the autumn. with full
grown antlers, the bulls wander
through the forests looking for their
mates, at times uttering far-reaching
cries and calls of defiance to their
rivals, and occasionally clashing
their horns against the saplings in
the exuberance OF masterful vigor.
Other bulls at times accept the chal-
lenge and hasten to meet the rival
f. a battle royal. At this season the
call of the COW moose also brings the
nearest bulls quickly to her side.
Hunters take advantage of this, and
by initiating the call through a birch
bark trumpet bring the most agrees
sive bulls down.
