UNDER LIGHT RECEIPTS
FAT CATTLE ADVANCE
BY Bureau of Agricultural Economies

culture.
Chlcago.-Fat cattle values, stimu-
lated by small receipts, continue to
advance. Weighty steers had difficulty
IN holding the gain, these being de-
pendent on shipping demand which
huctuated. Lower grade steers showed
most of the 25c to 35c upturn over a
week earlier.
Fat stock made comparable adj
vances, demand being active. Can
ners, cutters and bulls eased off, Veal
ers, in spite of expanded receipts, held
about steady, a spread Of $1150 to
$3.50 taking the bulk of light offer
ings grading medium to choice, small
quota of selected 100 to 1S0-lb. calves
going on shipper account at $3.50 to
$140O.
Activity in stocker and feeder steers
was one of the outstanding features
of the trade. Comparatively little
went out locally under 500 and meaty
well-bred yearlings were not infre-
quent at $500 to $S.25.
Weighty steers were marketed lib
orally from Nebraska, Iowa and Ill
inois. Most offerings had been on
feed three to five months and usually
showed a $3.50 to $500 advance over
original costs.
Swine trade was "jumpy' and val
ues tiuctuated sharply each day. Net
losses for the week amounted to zoe
to 40c for the rank and file of offer
ings Packing soWs ruled 15c to 25c
lower for the week. Slaughter pig
supplies exceeded demand and an ac-
emulation resulted in a SOC break.
Increased supplies knocked the
props from under fat lamb values,
losses figuring mostly 75c to $1.00.
Well-tinished desirable weight lambs
steadied and sales fell with fair reg
ularity in range of SIPS to $3.50.

CONFESSES PLOT To
KILL NJ CLINTOCK
Faiman Says Shepherd
Promised to Divide Vic
TINS Wealth.

Chicago. - William Darling Shep-
herd was directly accused as the
slayer of William McClintOck, the mil
lionaire orphan.
The accusation was made in a com
plete confession by DIR. Charles d. Fai-
man, head of the so-called National
University of Sciences, that he and
Shepherd conspired over a period of
year to take young McClintock's life
by means Of typhoid germ poisoning.
Faiman declared in the course of
deliberate and slowly traced confess
sion, that he furnished typhoid germs
TO Shepherd; that he instructed Shep-
herd from time to time in the care
and culture of the germs, and that it
was perfectly well understood between
them that young McClintock should be
killed for his fortune and that the
fortune should be divided by the
slayers.
Faiman and Shepherd were taken to
the states attorneys Office
Faiman Accuses Shepherd.
Shepherd and Faiman were brought
If Shepherd had got germs from him.
Faiman suddenly leaned forward,
shook his finger in Shepherds face,
and burst out:
He got the germs from me. I gave
those tubes of cultures to Shepherd.
He told me he wanted them for a mil
lion-dollar deal and he would pay me
plenty"
Shepherd turned to the states attOr-
ney and said: 81 never saw this man
in my life before. | suppose you ca
hang me, but / am innocent"
Faiman said he met Shepherd in No
vember,, 1923. After some prelimina-
ries they began talking of the uses of
germs. This led to talk of the i'm
plantation of cultures with the idea
of causing death. Then they came to
the point
Promised to Divide Fortune.
Faiman said Shepherd told him he
was foster father of young McClintock.
Mrs Shepherd was the boys guardian.
Young McClintock would soon come
into S1,OO0.0O0. Also he would likely
marry Miss Isabelle Pope as soon as
he came of age Faiman said Shep-
herd proposed that they implant ty-
phoid germs in young McClintock,
cause his death, collect the fortune,
and divide
Il agreed to do this Faiman ex-
planned. 81 instructed shepherd in the
culture Of germs. | gave him three
tubes. There were three distinct spe-
cies. l told him how to guard them
and to propagate them. 1t was the
understanding that Shepherd was to
wait until young McClintock had
signed will leaving the money to
Shepherd and then at the first favor
able opportunity he was to be given
the germs and killed.
"FrOm time to time | met Shepherd
In various hotels in the loop. We
talked over our plans there and told
him more Of how to carry on his plans.
Finally the moment arrived. The boy
had made his will, leaving the money
TO Shepherd. The first dose Of the
germs was given to McClintock in a
glass of cold water After that the
doses were repeated and his condition
aggravated"

When locating campsite your
immediate consideration is water,
wood, safety and accessibility to
supplies. fish and game.
Good water for drinking is the
first essential. Wood for fuel comes
next.
Keep away from dead trees that
might fall on your tent. Burn cans
and camp refuse. Keep the camp
clean and sanitary.
Don't pitch your tent in low place
or too close to your water supply. If
your horse drinks out of lake,
stream or spring, you can safely
drink at the same place.
A dog, on the other hand. will
drink any kind of water, good or bad
when thirsty. ;
Drink sparingly Of water that is

RAMS BARN DANCES

Langdon, N. D.. June III. NJ.
Snowfield. states attorney of Cava-

says he has decided to withhold his
approval of all barn dances in Cava-
lier county.
He says most of them are difficult
to police and often are a source of
supply of intoxicating liquor. The
ruling may work hardships in some
instances, he says. but declares his
belief that the interest of the public
is best conserved by closing such
dances down entirely.
