Heavy Receipts Unsettled
Chicago Butter Market
Demand for Eggs Remains Firm
Live Poultry Movement Heavy
Price Two Cents Lower

Butter markets the past week
have been somewhat unsettled and
with heavy milk production
throughout the Central West, and
comparatively heavier receipts on
the larger Eastern markets, the
price tendency has been lower.
Trading has been slow and only
fairly satisfactory. The "into
storage" movement of butter is
increasing, but as yet speculative
buying is somewhat lacking, as the
present market situation has not
been fully tested out.
Chicago 80 score Standards to-
day are quoted at 40A cents.
New York go score Extras 42h
cents. These quotations represent
a decline in Chicago on Standards
of n cents; New York Extras a
decline of n cent.
Production of eggs continue to
show a gradual decrease. How
ever, receipts on the larger East
ern markets are holding up well
compared with receipts the same
time year ago, and considering
the consuming demand, the supply
is still liberal.
The consuming demand for eggs
for current trade has been fair but
as yet comparatively heavy pro-
portion of receipts are finding
their way to storage warehouses.
AS the season advances, and quality
becomes less desirable, quotations
are showing no material change.
The Chicago egg market on
Firsts today is 20 LIZ to Fl 1-2
cents. New York Firsts % to 23
cents. These quotations represent
a fractional increase as compared
with a week ago.
The movement of live poultry in
the country especially fowls has
been heavy, compared with the &C
tual buying demand. Quoted
markets have declined according to
situation which has prevailed.
Fowls are quoted today Chicago
Is to 20 cents. New York FL to
26 cents. These quotations rep
resent decrease in quotations at
Chicago of two to four cents per
pound. New York market has de-
creased one to two cents per
pound.
The supply of broilers is in
creasing materially and according
to the increase, the actual selling
price of broilers is being adjusted
according to the law of supply and
demand.-Produce Review, Swift
& Company, Chicago.

This Story May Be a Fake
But Its a Good Yarn
Texas Newspaper Man Is Alleged
to Have Published Unvarnished
Facts for One Week

An editor down in Texas, says
the Saltwater (Minn.) Gazette,
has been accused on several oc.
casions of not telling the truth in
his newspaper.
In newspaper parlance, his ire
was reused, and he announced:
ga lot of people in this town
fall out with the editor and brand
him liar when the ordinary mis-
takes of life show up in the paper.
You have a little charity and fell
low feeling for every man in
town but the editor. You claim
you want the facts and id if
we don't give them to you. Read
the next issue of this sheet and
you will see facts with the bark
off.
81 admit that have been a liar,
an editorial liar ever since I have
been editing this sheet, but / have
never printed a lie in these col
umns except to keep somebody's
feelings from being hurt. 1 am
not afraid of any of you and I'll
be dad-blamed if don't print the
truth from now on or until you
get out of the habit of calling me
a liar every time I make some I'M
avoidable typographical errors.

Now watch my smoke!"
And here are some paragraphs
Of his smoke" in the next is
sue:
"John BENIN, the LATEST man
in town, made a trip to Belleview
yesterday"
"Rev. Sly preached last Sunday
at the local church. His sermon
was punk and uninteresting except
some stuff he quoted from Bob
Ingersoll, for which he failed ito
give Bob any credit. He also cited
a few passages from William Gil
bert Munsey's sermons and had
the unlimited gall to palm it off as
his own"
"Tom Spardin married Miss Car
oline Meadows last trades day at
the county seat. 1t wasn't gen.
orally known, but the marriage
was brought about mainly by a
Remington shotgun u manipulated
by the brides father. Tom con-
Guided that marrying was the
healthiest thing he could do until
other arrangements had been
made. 4"
"Regan Lloyd, cashier of the
State Bank of Willow Grove, died
last Wednesday and was buried by
the Odd Fellows at Pleasant
Mound cemetery. He had been
taking this paper for several years
and had not paid us a cent. We
though that being a banker he
would certainly pay some time
We will sell the account for two
bits worth of groceries"
'fMarried-Miss Susie Seruggs
and Horace Griffin. The bride is
a very ordinary girl who fiirts with
every travelling man she meets and
never helped her mother three days
in her life all put together. She
is anything but beauty, resemb-
ling a gravel pit in the face AND
walks like a duck. The groom is q
natural born loafer and bum. He
never did a lick of work until his
step-daddy ran him off from home
last fall. He went to the county
seat and rather than starve to
death he accepted job as cham
bermaid in a livery stable. As
soon as his ma found out where
he was she went up and got him
and brought him home. They now
reside at the home of his wife's
father and he has no definite plans
for the future. Susie will have a
hard row to hoe. +"
The story didn't say what hap
pened after the issue came out, but
reprinting this might throw scare
into the gentry who are wont to
howl "liar" when the paper makes
a trifling mistake.

day. The alliance decided "to ally
with the oppressed people of the
whole world in order to fight imper-
ialism and to cooperate with the work
ers Of the whole world in order to
improve the conditions Of the work
ing class"
In the succeeding conferences, such
topics as the dispatch Of soldiers by
the British to China, the oppression
Of the Mexicans and Nicaraguans by
the u. S. had been discussed. The re-
representatives. Of the Kuomintang and

also finance added installment buying.
