Hog receipts were $4,000 today,
which included 10000 sent direct

with only shippers and small pack

to $3.50 for hogs, but none were
sold that high early.
Shippers and city butchers
bought some medium to good hogs
at $4.35 to $3.50. The strike"
hogs in sellers hands last week

The supply of cattle was 5000,

Silver Has High Place
in Realm of Industry

Silver, because of its cheaper price,
has wide industrial use. Some
40,000,0O0 ounces of silver are an
nually distributed by government
agencies and private retiners to man.
ufacturers. The present low price
has given it a decided impetus in
this field.
Much silver is reclaimed today
which formerly was lost in scrap
heaps. It is estimated that $1,000.
600 worth is saved annually by ex-
tracing particles from the sweep
ings of factories where it is used, by
filtering the water used in cleaning
where silver compounds are manipu-
lated, and most of all from the dis
carded film which comes from the
motion picture industry.
This reclaimed silver, as well as
the new product, goes back to indus
try. Because silver resists the action
of acetic acid it is used to line food
containers and stills. condensers,
taps and faucets in dairies. fruit
juice and brewing trades. 1t also
resists caustic alkalis and. therefore.
is used to line great watts in their
manufacture. The uses of silver to-
day are so varied that the list might
be extended almost indefinitely.
