This is most effectively accomplished by the
free use of Nuxated Iron. This valuable prod
uct contains the principal chemical constitu-
entofactive living nerve force in form which
most nearly resembles that In the nerve and

II also contains organic iron like the iron In
your blood and like the iron In spinach, len
tils and apples. This form of iron will not
blacken nor injure the teeth nor upset the
stomach. II is an entirely different thing
from metallic iron which people usually take.
Nnxated Iron may therefore be termed both
a blood and a nerve food. as II feeds strength
giving iron to your blood and the principal
chemical ingredient Of active, living nerve
force TO your brain and nerve cells.
Over four million people are using Nuxsted

SLIGHT CAIN IN
CATTLE VALUES
over LAST week
(By Consolidated Press.)

U. S. Yards, Chicago, JAM A.
Livestock trade was hampered by
wet weather today, and it was late
before sellers were able to do
much. An uncertain undertone
was noted in,~all branches of the
trade at the present time. The long
strike and the uncertain condition
Of other industries do not tend to
gice cattle traders much confidence
in the future of the market. Pres
ent cattle values show a small
gain over the levels noted at the
close Of last week, however, re-
ceipts Of livestock at local yards
today were estimated at $4,000 cat
tie. 10000 hogs, 10000 sheep and
$500 calves.
Cattle.
Trading was slow even for the
best steers. Some deals were
called nearly steady, but the gem
eral market was low late in the
day.
Choice yearlings sold at $3.50
while good heavy steers made
$8.65. But common steers sold at
$6.50@7.65. Cows sold about
oCcduy, Dul Tue ITdQe was weak
later in the day. Gamers held well,
while best bologna bulls made
$4.AQ4.50. Packers paid mostly
$S.00@9.00 for calves, but shippers
went up to $40 on a steady market.
Hogs.
Light hogs were mostly 100 15c
lower from the start, but the trade
was off 25c later in the day, clos
ing at the low point Some OF the
good heavy butchers sold about
steady. Best light hogs made SIS
early, but tops were placed at $3.50
after the first rounds, while rough
packing hogs went about $500
$50. Light butchers were quoted
at $7.5097.90.
Sheep.
Lambs were steady to Csc high

Curb Market
BY STUART P. WEST
Copyright. 1921

New York, Jan. 4.-There was
considerable nervousness on the
curb exchange today. An action of
overnight selling orders by COM
mission houses and renewed SELL
ing by the professional element
caused weakness and many new
low records were established. Sub
Sequently there were rallies on
short covering by the traders. Some
issues showed resistance to the
general trend, notably Chicago Nip
pie A, which advanced on rumors
of favorable dividend action, and
Southern Coal and Iron, which was
influenced by talk of the possibili-
ty of the company being included in
one of the steel mergers because
of its ore properties in eastern
Pennsylvania. Cities Service issues
were the weak features, the old
common declining sharply while
substantial losses were recorded in
the Bankers Shares and the Pre-
ferred Stock. Prairie Pipe Line, on
small sales, dropped several points.
Standard Oil of Indiana was an ex-
ception in this group. 1t advanced
after a small loss in the initial
dealings.
In the miscellaneous group inter-
est was displayed in California
Crushed Fruit, that stock continuing
its sensational decline until it sold
at 81 a share, when announcement
was made that trading in the issue
had been suspended pending an in,
vestigation by the exchange au-
thorities. Durant Motors of Indi-
ana reached a new low and Tobac-
co Products exports was a weak
feature. Todd Shipbuildfng was
comparatively firm and there was
a sharp recovery in Earl Motors
on Chicago buying
Magma Copper rose a fraction
and Nipissing and Boston and Mon
tana held steady.

Bond Market
BY STUART P. WEST
tCopyrlght. 192S-D

New York, Jan. tit was a very
uneven bond market today with a
reduced volume of business. There
was not the same amount of evil
dence as on the preceding days of
the presence of the January re-
investment demand. Declines and
advances were about equally dis
tributed but with slight prepond-
erance of losses. The United
States war group stood practical
ly still all day. The only features
amounting government issues were
the Swiss SIS which held at a new
high at 115h and the City of
Berne SIS which we're up a half
point to 10S. Otherwise changes
in this section of the market were
trifling.
The weakness in Kelly Spring
field stocks following the passing
of the stock division had a further
sentimental effect upon the SO per
cent bonds wllch were of a half
point or so. u. S. Realty SIS sold
at 90 against their high of "a, but
this decline implied nothing more
than normal market readjustment
Mercantile marine SIS were of near
ly a point and Pacific Gas and
Electric SIS a nalf point.
In the railway group there was
more losses than gains. While re-
covery continued in some issues
like the ST. Paul Convertible Az IS
and the Erie BIS which have recent
ly been under special pressure
this was more than Offset by losses
of a half point to point in such
representative bonds as the Balti-
more and Ohio convertible AIS, the

DryGoods Market
BY STUART P. WEST
= Copyright, 1921

New York, Jan. 4.-Buyers con-
tinued to proceed with caution in
local drygoods markets today, al
though raw cotton showed recovery
after yesterdays break. There has
been no weakening of prices and no
offerings from second hands to in
dicate nervousness there. Every
where the feeling prevailed that
business would develop slowly and
steadily. Sales of 3S1a inch 54x60
print cloths were made in small
lots at cents and 6Sx70's brought
10 cents. Sheeting held firm at 90
net for four yard 56x60's. New
prices have been named on several
lines of cotton goods. The leading
manufacturer of blue denims an
nounces prices on the close basis
of Sc cents pound for S-ounce
goods, which is 10 per cent lower
than the current price. In bleach
ed goods a price of liz cents has
been made on Fruit of the Loom A.
Muslin delivery this month and
next.
