South st. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 7, 1899:
were noted during the period with
range cattle diminishing and few
granted natives arriving, accord
ing to the Federal-State Market News
Service. Slaughter steer trade held
around steady with instances strong
on well finished steers and weak on
common grassers. She stock was
largely steady to strong but bulls
were weak with spots lower. Veal
ers sold weak to Csc lower and stock
ers or feeders generally steady. Fed
steers and yearlings bulked at $3.50
to $1,000 with only odd head of choice
steers above $10.25. Most grass kill
ers sold at $3.50 to 1925. Medium
and good heifers made $500 to $3.50,
choice lots up to $1,000, common
grassers down to $500. Good beef
cows sold at $500 to $3.50, Gamers
and cutters from $3.50 to $4.75. Most
sausage bulls turned at $3.50 to $6.25,
good bulls to $3.50 mainly. Good and
choice stock calves sold at $8.75 to
$10.75, medium and good yearling
stockers at $3.50 to $500, a few up
to $3.50. Most feeding steers went
at $6.75 to SITS, good light feeders
up to $8.25.
There was nothing in the news to
bolster fading hog market and prices
continued to decline. On Tuesday
the top had dropped to $3.50, or new
low point since the late August bot
tom. Compared with the close of
last week, barrows and gifts are
Csc to soc lower, while sows dropped
zoe to Csc. Current sales of good and
choice barrows and gifts scaling 100
to $40 pounds as well as 240 to 300
pounds were largely at $500 to $6.25.
Pigs declined with fat hogs, losing
Csc to sell at $3.50 to $5.75. Fat pigs
brought $500.
Fat lambs went up on Monday but
dropped on Tuesday when shipper
demand faded out and values for the
week were steady to Csc lower. 9th
er classes held largely steady. Good
and choice native and fed lambs went
at $500 on Tuesday after making
1925 to S940 on Monday, and Gull
and common grades turned at $3.50
to $3.50 Good and choice ewes
earned $3.50 to $500, good white
faced range feeding lambs 1925 to
$3.50, and most natives $500 to $3.50.

Funds Come in Slowly.

Some time ago the local church
sent out a large number of Pension
Fund envelopes. 1t was hoped by the
church board that people would give
something to the Pension Fund
through this method. At a recent
meeting of the board the records
show that this method is not very
effective as yet, for only about a
dozen envelopes had been returned.
c. R. Petersen is treasurer and he
will be pleased to accept your Pen
sion Fund donation. If you have
mislaid your envelope, you may hand
him the money at the store, but it
should be done soon so the money
can be sent to the synod.

DuplessiS national union party,

allies, had clinched SO seats and
government control. One seat went
to an independent, one to the ma
