LIVESTOCK REPORT

South Saint Paul, Minn.-The runs
for the first two days of last week
on the seven principal western mar.
kets are considerably lower than for
! the same period last week, and this
slackening off had tendency to
strengthen the trade somewhat on
different classes, says WELLER &
WELLER. Chicago opened the week
about steady and our market here
was the same, and we would call the
trade from 15c to 25c higher at the
close on Tuesday, with prospects IA
vorable for the balance of the week.
The trade all over the circuit has
been very bad, and it certainly can
stand little reaction.
Judging from reports from other
markets, we do not hesitate to say
that the trade at South st. Paul, and
sales made in WELLER G. WELLER COM
pany's alleys are as high as they are
at any place on the circuit at this
time, and we believe that all West
ern shippers coming this way should
at least try out this market. There
is absolutely no expense in connec-
tion with this, except for feed bills.
Please consider this.
Killing Cattle
Reports from Chicago on the beef
trade were more favorable. The best
load lots of western beeves averag-
ing around 1900 lbs. sold up to $7.75
with the trade, however, eligible for
sales up to 1925 on some real good
ones, but the bulk of those coming
are selling from $3.50 down, with
the common kinds as low as $3.50.
While choice females would sell up
to $500, very few went over the
scales at more than $500. This on
ferings.
Stockers and Feeders
The trade on this class has been
rather slow, and the market uneven.
The range quoted is from $3.50 to
So; the latter price for real choice
that would be sold in COM
petition to the packers, and the for
mer price for the little bow-wow
steers. The bulk of the offerings,
however, have cleared from SO to Sc,
with the best western steers for the
feed lots going up to 81. There are
any amount of inquiries for choice
kinds, and we do not look for this
trade to go any lower; in fact, we
look for the trade to improve, for
with the abundant corn crop in the
Central States for this year, there
will no doubt be a lot of it used for
the fattening of cattle this winter
and as in the past, we believe South
st. Paul will get their share of these
buyers, and there is no reason in our
why shippers of this class
should not come here. There is no
doubt but that the trade here is as
good as on other markets. Feeding
COWS and heifers cleared mostly from
$3.50 to $3.50 with some choice heif-
srs up to $500.

erage production of 634 pounds OF
milk and 25.1 pounds of butterfat,
were tested during September. Thirty
five of these COWS produced more
than 40 pounds of butterfat each.
Six Best Herds
The six best herds for September
were herd number 8, with an aver
age production of 1,545 pounds of
milk, and AZ pounds of butterfat;

day.
Best Cows for Month
The high COW for September is
Johanna Posh Belle Fayne, a regis
tered Holstein belonging to w. H.
Voelker, of Kalispell, which pro-
duced 2,100 pounds of milk, and 63.5
pounds of butterfat. The other five
high cows for the month were: Belle,

Grossweiller, of Kalispell, produced
Ito pounds of milk, and CO.'S
pounds of ,butterfat Josie, a grade
Holstein owned by F. x. Grossweiller

55.4 pounds of butterfat; 10, a grade
Holstein, owned by Winfield Scott, of
Whitefish, produced 1,4S5 pounds of
milk, and $40 pounds of butterfat.
Cost of Production
Of the herds on pasture alone, herd
number 27 is giving the most econo-
mical production, returning $6.11 for
every dollar spent for feed, and pro-
ducing butter fat for six cents a
pound, and milk for % cents for
every hundred pounds.
OF the herds on pasture and grain,
or other feeds, herd number 4 is CIV
ing the most economical production, |
returning $5.13 for every dollar for
feed, and producing butterfat for 8 |
cents pound, and milk for 2S cents
a hundred pounds. Three herds are
getting no pasture at all, and their
cost of production runs somewhat |
higher than most of the herds that
are still on pasture.

Rich Copper Vein Uncovered

The tapping of rich vein of cop
per ore on the property of the Hudson
brothers and Koch brothers, in the
Wolf creek district is reported.
The ore is of similar character to
that produced by the Rosenfeld prop
erty, which recently caused a consid-
cradle stir in mining circles, showing
chalcopyrite and grey copper and
bornite, estimated by mining men to
contain 20 per cent in the red metal,
and believed to run we'll in silver
and gold. No assays have as yet
been made.
q Much significance is placed on the
strike by mining men, who regard it
as proving a very extensive area, with
promise Of opening up one of the
greatest copper districts in the coun-
try.

which the seed has been grown this
year will precipitate this industry
from infancy into one of the largest

ducing no better melon and cucum-
Der seed is selling at the present time

LIS BOYS AT
WINTHROP CAMP

JEFFERSON Smith Of the Y. M. G.. A.
camp at Winthrop was in the city
yesterday on business. Mr.. Smith
stated that there were ITS boys at
the camp at present, and that he had
1900 people booked for the season.
These people are included in the
church, Christian Endeavor. students,
ministers and employed officers con-
ferences that follow the boys en-
campment.
He stated that the boys were
specializing in life-saving this sum-
mer as they have in the last few
years. This camp had the largest
number of boys of any camp in Maine
to pass the Hfe-saving test in the last
two years. There were AZ boys, all
under the age of IA years, that were
able to bring struggling man
weighing around 200 pounds from a
long distance out on the lake to the
wharf and place him where it was
high and dry. This seems to be a
wonderful thing to many people. but
it is a common requirement at the
camp, making it safe and profitable
place for any boy to pass the sum-
mer. Prof. A. E. Fender Of Spring.
field. Mass, assisted by ~ leaders
has charge Of camp work. There are
six instructors in life-saving, and
about % boys who have passed the
test, are assisting.
Besides this line of work, is the
woodcraft series for the younger
boys and all kinds of athletic sports.
There are 20 boys from Augusta and
20 from Waterville who are enjoy
ing their vacation there.

DRY SITUATION
NEARING DANGER
Line FOR MILLS

Twelve weeks ago today 1t was
raining, IL weeks ago today the
cities and towns of New England
were Just beginning to recover from
the biggest flood in % years. Mills
and power stations were crippled by
the high water. Yesterday the
Amoskeag mills in Manchester. N.
H., announced that they would not
be able to open up until the dry sit
uation is ameliorated.
At the Bangs Power station it was
reported yesterday afternoon that the
water was low but had not reached
steam to run it's dynamos part of the
time. The water guage read 81
inches below the dam level which is
100 about o'clock yesterday which
is somewhat of a contrast to the
reading taken II weeks ago next
Monday of 122 inches pouring over
the dam.
The Lockwood mills report nor
NAL water situation with the level
about six inches below the dam and
six foot reserve in Moosehead
lake.
The Fort Halifax power station of
the Sebasticook river IN Winslow re-
ports that the water level is normal
with big supply in the storage
basin.
During the spring the water in
this section has been moro plentiful
than usual owing to the heavy SHOWS.
This situation has probably saved
Waterville manufacturing plants
from power difficulties that would
have resulted if the spring flood had
been below normal.
Very little rain has fallen during
the past six weeks in this city. There
have been several minor falls but no
driving storm that lasted for several
days.
Dry as 1t has been during these
past few weeks brush fires have been
far fewer than last year and days at
a time go by without a call coming
J into the local fire station.

LADY CUT ABOUT
HEAD WHEN AUTO
GOES OVER BUMP

A ridge on the street. caused by
workmen who laid cable beneath the
ground just above the upper College
avenue crossing, is the subject of
much conversation among motorists at
present. The dirt in the street was
thrown back after the cable was laid
and decided rise in the road is no
ticed by passing autoists. In fact it is
so decided that lady passenger in a
car that passed the spot yesterday was
thrown to the top of the car, strik-
ing the bow with her head and cutting
her forehead severely. Elizabeth. the
little daughter of o. N. Haglund. who
was riding very slowly up the street
with her father. was thrown to the top
of the car. striking her back on the top
of the seat as she came down. She was
not injured except from being little
lame. Several people were hurled vio-
lently about in big closed car Thurs
day evening as they passed by. caus-
ing no little amount of indignant COM
ment at the condition of the street.

Two Decisions in
Municipal Court

Judge Charles w. Atchley handed
down two decisions in the civil court
yesterday afternoon.
In the case of Samuel Freeman,
Jeweler, against Fred Gage of Oak
land. he awarded the plaintiff $3.50
and taxable costs. This case came
to trial on June Is. Mr.. Freeman was
represented by James L. Boyle and
Mr.. Gage by Carroll N. Perkins. The
case concerned the purchase of a
ring by Mr.. Gage from Mr.. Freeman,
the purchase price being SIS.
Mr.. Freeman claimed that Mr..
Gage purchased the ring paying an
amount down and making one pay
ment thereafter. He said that he
wrote number of letters to Mr..
ceived no answer and finally recov-
cred the ring in a pawn shop where
it had been taken by Mr.. Gage.
Mr.. Gage admitted purchasing the
ring but declared that he and his
wife came into Mr.. Freeman's store
after that and returned the ring to
him. He said that he had separated
from his wife since then and did not
know what she might have done.
Judge Atchley awarded $10.45 and
taxable costs to the plaintiff in the
case of the Maxim Motor Service
against j. w. Hamlin, both Of Wins
low.
The case started almost year ago
when Mr.. Hamlin took his car to the
garage for repairs. He took the car
out of the garage and had trouble
very shortly after that. He took
Ids car back and had it fixed and re-
fused to pay the second bill. When
the suit was filed against him he
filed an account in setoff. The only
item allowed in this setoff was the
charge of 1925 for a mudpan split
during the repairing of the car ac-
cording to the claim of the defendant.

YOUNG MEN MAY
STILL SIGN UP FOR
CITIZENS TRAINING

There Is still opportunity for any
Waterville young man to attend the
Citizins' Military Training camp at
Camp Devens during the month Of Au-
gust. The camps are designed by the
government to give to young men a
few weeks training in work that will
develop them physically, mentally and
morally. Boys between the ages Of II
and "a are wanted for the camp. Boys
who will be II before Dec. 81 will be
accepted.
The campaign in Waterville has re-
suited in IL boys being enrolled from
tris city and all are now anxiously
awaiting the summons that will take
II EN- to camp. The United States gov
ernmcnt bears all the expense Of get
ting the boys to camp, caring for them.
feeding and clothing them while at
camp. and returning them to their
homes.
The officials of the camp and the in
structors arc men picked for their abil-
greatest care is taken in the SUPER
vision of each boy.
Mayor L. o. Tebbetts Of Waterville
Yesterday strongly endorsed the train
ing camps. He said: Il think these
camps are the greatest opportunity
that coul1 be offered a boy, and I can
not understand why many more young
men have not applied for admission.
The training they will receive will
make them better men physically and
stronger citizens"
Maine will doubtless have her full
quota at the camp. as only a few more
are needed to fill out the number asked
for from this State. Other states have
not done so we'll. SO there will be
chance for any Maine boy who wants
to attend.
Applications and full information
can be obtained from Fred d. McAlary.
