FIRMER TREND
IN FAT CATTLE
Instances 25c Higher On
Steers-Hogs Steady, Top
$6.75-Lambs Unchanged

South st. Paul, Mimi, May 20,
1939-Reduced supplies gave the
local cattle market a touch of
strength on the opening day of the
week, according to the Federal
State Market News Service. How
ever, as larger packing plants are
not doing much killing either Mon
day or Tuesday, the demand lack
ed urgency. Slaughter steers sold
strong to as much as Csc higher
and other classes shared that
trend. Medium to good slaughter
steers bulked at $8.25-9.25, with
few up to $3.50, and plain steers
down towards $500. Good fed heif-
ers went at $S.50-9.00, bulk plain
butchers down to $500. Beef cows
made S6.0O-6.75, strictly good fat
cows as high as $3.50. Low cut
tiers and cutters turned at $500
SIS. Vealers were steady, choice
kinds $9.50-10.0O, with medium to
good mostly $7.50-9.00. Grassy
calves were under pressure and sold
largely under $500. Extreme top
on sausage bulls was $3.50. Plain
and medium stock calves and yearl-
ings turned at S7.00-S.40, the replace
ment trade being strong to Csc high
err. Common to good stock heifers
brought $5.50-7.50.
Sheep and lambs cleared readily
at unchanged prices. Bulk of the
Monday offering consisted of good
and choice 1870 pound old crop
shorn lambs, which moved at $3.50
8.75. Lambs comparable to those
making $500 last week were absent.
A few plain light clippers went to
killers at $600-70O. Odd head of
good springers were noted at $1,000
fat bucks out at the customary
$1.00 discount. Most of the fat
ewes scaling under $50 pounds
brought $3.50, with heavier weights
| at $3.50.

THERE'S ONE BORN
EVERY MINUTE

A brand new skin game, that
takes its cue from sympathy and
kindness Of passersby, old to
the cities but new in the coun-
try towns, was practiced with
some efficiency on our own
Main Street Monday. A blind"
man, with a crooner's voice, a
guitar strapped over his should
er, cup fastened to the guitar,
slowly made his way up one
side of the street and down the
other. His feet dragged heav-
lily, a can was slung obviously
across his arm. He raised his
unseeing eyes to the sky and his
voice poured out over the street.
Crowds gathered to watch. A
smattering walked up, clinked
the cup with a coin or two. The
clink brought an interruption of
thank you" from his lips. And
then some few were startled
when he had finished his slow
pace on the street. He stopped
at the corner, dropped the guitar
from his hands, stuffed the mon
ey into his jeans, Strengthened
up. He broke into a fast pace,
scooted to a fine looking auto
mobile-and drove away. If you
gave him a nickel or a dime and
didn't know the rest of the story,
it didn't make any difference to
you anyway, did it?

Mrs. Frank Stansfield, was confirm
ed Thursday, May 18th, in the As
cension Episcopal Church, and the
girls sing In the choir.
Ed Steege Is operating one of the
largest, up-to-date off-sale liquor
stores in Pasadena. He purchased
the business shortly after his ar
rival in the West, and now has a
fine business and the family Is COM
fortably located.
Business opportunities are avail
able, but work is scarce, said Mr..
Stansfield. An average Of 5000 peo-
pie per month are moving into
Southern California to live, and
eastern industry Is moving there
to take advantage of the low cleo
trio rate.
Mr.. Stansfield sent greetings to
his friends, and stated that they
would be seeing us soon. They
would have been home a month
ago, but the children wanted to
complete the school term and the
girls wanted to finish their terms
in dancing school.

CLIFFORD DOMKE
WILL LEAVE CHINA
Plans To Return To
Sank Centre Sometime In
August, Said Parents

Clifford Domke will leave China
in a few weeks after two years of
teaching in that war-torn country.
In letter to his parents here,
Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Domke, this
week, he dated his arrival in Sank
Centre sometime in August just
two years after he left this city.
The Carleton College student-teach-
er, whose trip to China is an an
nual scholarship given to a Junior
Of the school, will sail from China
sometime early next month, he in
dictated.
Now in Chengtu, Szechwan, the
southernmost province Of China,
Cliff has moved southwark among
millions Of refugees before the jap
anese advance. His first post was
in Fenchow, within the Great Wall
of China, and far to the north.
It is estimated his southern ad-
vances have taken him nearly 700
miles south Of that first post.
Anxious to return by way Of Eur
ope to complete a circuit trip Of
the globe, Clifford is bordering
routes to take. He would like to
spend some time in Japan before
he leaves the Orient. The call of
the round-the-world tour is strong,
he pointed out.
But as strong is the will to visit
his brother, Fay, now in Honolulu,
Hawaii, whom he hasn't seen in
two years. Cliff, now weighing
nearly two hundred pounds after
his two years In China, will return
to Carleton next fall to complete
his four years of college work.
