The idea which long actuated the conduct
of the Kennebec Journal A-B-C Classified
Section was to give service-to both reader
and advertiser.
That idea has matured and blossomed into
the present Ideal of Service.
This is not an impractical visionary ideal,
beautiful to contemplate, yet untitled to meet
the everyday needs of the people.
Our Ideal of Service is the very essence Of
practicability, as is evidenced by certain steps
we are taking-such as the censorship of un-
reliable advertising and the perfect classify.
ing and indexing for quick reference of all
offers inserted in this section. We are daily
- taking every possible step to further reader
convenience and enhance advertiser result Z
power.
Our Ideal of Classified Service is, in short,
to make this section render as definite pub
lie service as that rendered by the telephone
or electric lighting companies.

ing year, the high market of the year
was above that of 1924. In Novem-
Der, preceding by a gradual decline,
Gamer cows sold at rock bottom
prices of l lie for the poorest Offer
ings, and were hardly wanted at that
figure. The average range of the
year was 2 1-2@3c, with slippery
cows up to 34c.
Bull beef was slow in demand for
the greater part of the year, with OIL
ferings limited which averaged of in
ferior quality. The run of the yard
sold at 4Q5 sac, with little f1uctua-
ton, with bologna bulls down to 8
1-2c, and with fancy animals selling
UP to &c, with extras even higher.
The veal calf market has fiuctuat-
ed constantly, closely following the
dressed veal market. During the
seasons when the demand was most
active picked lots of calves of quail
ty and weight sold at ~ 1908 1-2.
with extra, either small lots or indi-
vidual calves selling, up to 16@17c.
Average mixed lots during the same
period sold at 10 1-2@12c. The low,
weak calf market usually comes in
the spring when large shipments of
small calves come to the Brighton
yards from York state, and the past
year was no exception. During this
time the poorest offerings were bid in
as low as Sc, with the average 4@ &c.
At this time from April LIST and dur
ing May the market was weak also
for the better run of veals, which
then sold at 10 1-2@11c for choice
lots and 1909 1-2c for mixed lots.
Receipts have run evenly most of the
year. averaging from $500 to $500
head per week.
Prices of hogs have shown a sharp
advance during the past year above
those of 1924. The lowest point of the
year being on a level with the high
est peak of 1924. The high market of
1925 came in March and again in
July, at which time fancy lots sold at
IA 1-4@14 ga |. w. and 1908 1-2c l.
W. The low market came in January
with fancy lots then selling at 11@12c
l. W. and IS 1-4@13 ga d. W., with
closing prices in December at about
the same level. At all times during
the year offerings OF New England
hogs at the Brighton yards have been
limited, the amount of weekly ship
ment seldom reaching above 800 head
and often under $50. This has been
due in part to a better home market
than here, and also to the fact that
less hogs have been raised. In the
western market prices have run low
err than here, but eastern buyers have
at nearly all times bought promptly
all New England hogs offered. Prices
for the greater part of the year have
been on a paying basis to the farmer.
Western arrivals of the year have
shown material decrease at the
packing houses.
While western shipment of sheep
and lambs have arrived for the Bos-

TRAMPS LANDED
IN COUNTY JAIL

Sheriff Stevens was called tc
Glenns Ferry the forepart of the
week to get five tramps, who were
found guilty of violating the trespass
law in the Justice Court and were
sentenced to thirty days in the coun-
ty jail and fine of ten dollars. The
men were arrested by a Railroad
Policeman on a charge OF being on
the right-of-way. Should the prac-
tice of a rigid enforcement of this
statute be followed out Gilmore coun-
ty will be haven for the knights of
the knapsack as they can be given a
sentence to the county jail and spend
quiet winter at the expense of the
taxpayers. These men were given
thirty days and ten dollar fine and
none of them will be able to pay
the fine so that will mean that they
will all have to spend thirty-fiye days
in the county Jail. 1t is figured that
board and room of one inmate in
the county Jail costs the taxpayers
one dollar per day, so the addition
OF the five new recruits viii cost the
taxpayers of this county SITS, just
because they happened to walk down
the right of way.
