South St. Paul, Minn., July 25, 1922:
The keen demand for thet limited sup
ply of choice young newcr6p hogs com
ing is sending prices of such kinds to-
ward the $ll.O0 mark, best today land
ing at $l0.75, while the dull demand for
the liberal marketings of heavy mixed
and packing grades has forced values
on such kinds downward, heavy pack
ing grades going today around $500
to $7.75, showing the widest price range
Of the season. Good pigs brought $l0.60.
Heavy receipts continue the rule in
the cattle trade, around 10000 arriving
for the first two days Of the. week.
The market held mostly steady, how
ever, only moderate price losses being
registered on in-between grades Of but
cher she stock. A good demand from
the country and from shippers for
stockers and feeders absorbed all Of
these offerings at steady prices and
helped maintain values Of killing cattle.

are quotable at 1915 to $1,000, load
lots and small lots having sold 1T these
prices on recent market sessions. Dry
fed beef steers of good grade both

Funds for local road purposes are
l9,Sll,27l for the year, however, and
more than double the current funds
available for the 7,000-mile system Of
state trunk routes.
The current trunk highway funds
for the first two years under the
Babcock plan are averaging about
$7,S50,O00 against the $10,000,000 an
nual average proposed in Amendment
No. l. Federal highway aid has been
cut in two-reduced by nearly $780,
900 for each year. Motor vehicle tax
revenues were $5,616,OOO last year and
have passed $6,000,0O0 this year, in
creased numbers of cars being register
led.
The bulletin continues:
"Many automobile and truck owners
including those in the large cities
which cannot share in the trunk funds,
assert that they are ready to pay more
lear taxes to extend better roads.
That will increase savings on tires,
gasoline and general car expense which
already more than offset the auto
taXes.'
Reductions in county township road
taxes are for local road authorities to
decide, it is pointed out, but with
other states issuing big blocks of road
bonds, Minnesota must provide more
funds for trunk highway development
in order to hold place in front Of
good road ranks.

GAIN IN DARYINC
IN THIS COUNTY
PRODUCTION In 1921 AHEAD OF
1920-1S FARMERS BEST
SOURCE OF REVENUE

Chris. Heen, head of the Minnesota
Dairy and Food Commission, has pre-
pared statistics showing comparative
figures concerning the dairying industry
in Morrison county for 1920 and 1921.
Mr. Heen states in a letter accompany
ing the statistics that while the total
amount paid patrons, as well as other
totals in the cash account, show con-
siderable Of change in 1921 as COM
pared with 1920, which change may
not appear to be particularly in favor
of the patrons, it should be remembered
that the cost of practically al! items
that enter into the production OF cream
has been materially reduced since.
l920-that is, the cost Of care and feed
was less in 1921 than the previous
year. This, he states, leads him to be-
lieve that the actual net return to the
patron, taking into account the costs,
is still really we'll worth while and a
much better return for money and
labor expended than received by the
farmer from any other source.
Below are published figures compiled
by Mr.. Heen. It was necessary with
respect to some localities to estimate
in part the number of patrons but the
figures given are such as may be- de-
pended upon as approximately correct.
The statistics follow:
