Cleveland Stock Market Summary

Choice steers held firm at $37 90
$4,000 but medium and good dry
feds and grass steers and heifers
were on weaker basis. Cows
were fully steady with more
strength on the lower grades of
dairy animals.
The calf trade was steady on
Monday with last weeks close
or around $l.00 lower than the
previous Monday. Most good and
choice native vealers sold at S29-
$4,000. Buyers are definately pre-
ferring light weights. Heavy cal
yes weighing above 200 lbs. are
being discounted with price cuts
rather sharp as they reach the
$50 lb. mark.
Fat lambs declined sharply last
week. A slow and lower dressed
trade over the consuming areas
along with heavier receipts in
the South was responsible for the
break. Declines in the market
can be expected on both lambs
and grass cattle as this is the
season for heavier movements.
Good and choice fat spring lambs
are selling at $26OO$ $4,000 Handy
weight sheep of choice quality
are selling at $1,000 but heavy
sheep are slow and mostly $500
down,

First, silver nitrate in a one-per

of newborn babies, is an essential

ment does not harm the baby's eyes
and is effective in destroying bac-

Next, use of the Snellen E chart
for testing of visual keenness in
school children is valuable. This
is simple test, and the child can
be made to feel that the test is a

child has been found to have visual
defects that were easily remedied
and the child literally given new
outlook on life. 1t is never advisable
to wait for a child to outgrow cross

his physician or the specialist to
whom the family physician sends
him, and the medical advice fol-
