Weekly Market Letter
By WELLER & WELLER CO.,
"Wednesday. Ocfnher % 1924

wednesday, October ID. 1924
We are pleased to report that since last
Saturday there has been a decidedly diff
ferent tone in the trade here in the yards.
we would call prices anywhere from 25c
to SOC higher than they were during the
first part of last week on steers, with
females steady to quarter higher. Our
receipts are very light for this time of
the year, with prospects of only a fair run
next Monday, and a good, active market;
We are not getting any grain fed stuff at
this time, and the top sales on choice
butcher steers is around $3.50 per cwt., and
only small punches have brought this
price, with odd head up to $780, and the
bulk of good grass killers going from $3.50
to $500, with the in-between kinds from
$3.50 to $3.50. Heifers, in order to bring
800, must be exceptionally, good, with
real good grass cows from 81 to $3.50.
We have received from the following
Montana stockmen the past week:
W. r =. Stokes Big Timber; Byron Hur-
Bell, Eden; John Kemper Big Timber.
ST0CKERS AND FEEDERS: We are
having a real decent trade on stockers
and feeders, there being a very heavy out
side demand for all the supply, and we
look for this market to go stronger
HOGS: This market has certainly been
on a slump during the past week. going
back much more rapidly than it went mp.
The top today is 5000 for select hogs, with
sows around $3.50. The fairly heavy run
Of spring pigs has no doubt caused the
snarp Dreak IN prices, Dut everyone Is
talking a short hog crop, and we do not
expect them to go much lower. Pigs are
selling from $500 to $500, with peewees
down to $500 and $500 There are consid-
cradle numbers of these coming
SHEEP AND LAMBS: We are pleased
to quote prices in this division about
steady with those of last week South st.
Paul is certainly coming into its own
as sheep and lamb market. We have
more than enough buyers hero to take
care of breeding and feeding stock, and the
packers are over anxious buyers for the
good killers and we belive it would be
greatly to your benefit to at least try
this market if you are shipping this way.

FEEDING DUCKS FOR

" HE matter of feeding ducks is
very simple is they are not so
h susceptible to digestive trOub-
les as are chickens and young tur-
keys.
The feed for baby ducklings should
consist first of little sand or fine
gravel. Then use a little of most
any of the good chick mashes that
are on the market, mixing a little
sand with it. They should also have
plenty of ground green feeds. Many
people think it necessary to have
pond of water in which the ducks can
swim, but it is not at all necessary.
They should always have access
to a drinking fount or pan that is
deep enough that they can get their
heads under the water as in this man
ner they keep their nostrils cleaned
out. If they cannot do this they are
apt to become clogged, causing eye
and head troubles. On some of the
large duck farms where the ducks
do not have access to a pond or
they hang lanterns near the
drinking pans so that the ducks can
go to them at night and thus keep
their nostrils cleaned out.
They should be ready for fatten-
ing when II weeks of age. On Long !
Island are possibly found the largest
duck farms and their fattening ra-
tons have become quite famous |
While they have been kept quite Sc

Two parts corn meal, one part wheat
bran, one part red dog flour (Arling-

mix ground greens with this, and it is
n this manner that the famous cell |
sry-fed ducks are fed.
If you have not the above in

or fattening chickens will do, but

COFFEE CREEK FARMER GETS
YIELD OF GA BUSHELS To ACRE

The question as to what farmer
would secure the greatest average
yield of winter wheat from a large
field in Fergus county this season
appears to have been answered, with
the honor going to Henry Creekmore,
of the Coffee Creek country, who
threshed out ga bushels to the acre
on field of more than 100 acres.
The field was summer falloWed and
has attracted attention for q consider
able time, promising to yield heavily.
Mr. Creekmore is rated as one of
the best farmers in the country, al
ways getting a good yield when condi-
lions are favorable, but this year he
topped his own record.
