Cattle trading was slow as usual

IT HIS represents a loss Of be-
III tween 100000 and 100000
- hogs over the past year. This
loss is not confined to Indianapolis
alone but is felt over the country In
general.
The top values paid this year for
porkers will lure a great many
farmers back in the hog business and
the market in a comparatively short
time probably will be flooded with an
oversupply. Prices should conse-
quently tumble.
Building and engineering con-
tracts awarded in Indiana during
November amounted to $13,483, 700,
according to the F. w. Dodge Cor
poration. This represents a 20 per
cent increase over October and is
more than three times the amount of
work started In November, 1924.
New construction started in In
diana during then past eleven
months totals s130,374, 300. This is
81 per cent increase over the first
eleven months of last year and A
per cent jump over the entire year
Of 1924.

Good and Bad

Yet loops today are still cumber'
some. They don't help in beautify-
ing the home, even though the re-
ceiver itself may be attractive. Only
where they are hidden from view is
the attractiveness Of the set IN
changed.
But there again, today, such a loop
receiver isn't much on reception. for
distance especially.
The problem Is to get something
like the loop for an aerial. the eff
cheney of which will be as high at
least as the modern outside antenna.
That isn't so difficult as 1t may
sound. There are many receivers
today that can be hooked on to the
batteries and. without aerial or
ground, get local as loud as could be
desired.
why not receivers that could do
this for distance?
Tiny Aerial Coil
w. II. Priess, noted New York
radio engineer, is perhaps the first
to conceive of an aerial that reaches
closer than others to the idea pre-
scented here. He says that in a few
years we may see loop aerials as
large as our hands, for tuning in
long distance stations.
Such loop aerials could easily be
incorporated within the radio cabi-
net and turned by means OF a dial
on the panel.
other engineers have been work
ing along similar lines. Prof. A. M.
Low. famous British wireless in
ventor, has also been working on
various types of aerials and has been
able to devise one that looks like an
eventual part of receiver.
But all this is still far from the
final acomplishment-that OF radio
receivers that could forego the use
of aerials altogether.
With these would come the practi-
cal elimination Of static. Loops to-
day cut down static tremendously.
What will receivers even without
loops dotf
With the increase OF power and
efficiency Of transmitting stations.
there is even greater possibility Of
such an accomplishment.

- URRENT prices paid for hogs
Id will go no lower for the first
S part of the coming year, is
the opinion of several reliable
traders at the Indianapolis Livestock
Exchange. The prices will vary be-
tween $40 and $12 for the next few
months, he thinks.
The reason for the present high
prices paid for pork is the big short
age in the supply. 1t is the old law
of supply and demand forcing prices
higher.
In the past two years the value
Of corn has been high and farmers
could get more for tneir corn than
they could get by feeding the hogs.
Consequently mary of them sold
their corn and the hog industry suf-
fered.
Just how hard the hog supply was
hit Is shown by the fact that this
year the supply is the lowest in
twelve years. At the end Of 1925
the total receipts probably will be
1000, 900 hogs, according to estimates
made by traders at the local Eek
change.
