UPTURN IN WEEK
DESPITE STRIKE
Live Stock and Gram Prices
All Going up--Much Bull
Sentiment at Chicago.
By WILLIAM R. SANBORN.
Despite tbe fear of demoralized live
stock markets last week, because of
the steel strike, the price of cattle
averaged 45 cents above the previous
week and hogs averaged 5 cents
higher, at 17.
Prime steers ranged from $17.60 to
$17.90 last Saturday, with good to
choice ranging at fram $17.50 down to
$16.60; while common to good ranged
up to $16.50 on a few selections. The
market at the end of the week was
ready to strong at all western points.
Western receipts were considerably
lighter than a year ago, both of cattle
and bogs.
The top on hogs at Chicago Satur
day was $17.80, for light butchers,
which was 40 cents over the top for
heavies. Light bacon hogs were In
demand, those ranging at 160 to 190
pounds bringing $17.25.
So many poor quality hogs were
marketed on Saturday that the ave
rage for the day was but $16.25, this
being 20 cents under Friday's average,
and the lowest, with one exception,
since last October. Owing to the
large number of heavy packers receiv
ed last week, the average estimate
was estimated at 256 pounds.
The percentage of prime finished
cattle was small eveiywhere last week
especially in the west, but even so,
the average price at Chicago, $15.60,
was 20 cents above the average for
the same week in 1918, while hogs, at
$17, were $2.20 under the figures for
the same week last year. Stfeep at
$8.20 and lambs at $14.50, on averages
for the week, were each $2.50 per 100
weight below 1918 prices.
Active Grain Markets.
Corn and oats had a broad range
during the past week, with exceptional
daily fluctuations. Unexpected strength
developed on the morning the strike
1
opened, corn advancing 3 cents and j
oats gaining 1 cent, where a decline
had been feared by the bull3.
Rye and barley also advanced sharp
ly and all hog products took an up
ward turn, with everything closing at
the top of the day. This indicated
that the trade did not take the strike
seriously, but anticipaed an early set
tlement and return to work.
September corn reached $1.55 or.
its upward swing on Tuesday, an ad
vance of more than 20 cents from its
recent low. But the price didn't hold:
it struck bottom for the week at $1.41
on Saturday, and closed at $1.44.
Board of trade speculators and grain
shippers are always awake to the var
ious changes In the cost of every Im
portant food and the fact that, In spite
of the government campaign to reduce
the cost of staples, eggs and butter
have avdanced 8 cents per dozen and
pound at Chicago within thirty days,
strengthened bull sentiment on the
floor. Dressed beef, pork and mutton
ranged about one cent higher the past
week, at wholesale, than during the
previous week.
Glen Miller Market
The receipts at tbe local yard3 were
fairly heavy last week and prices
ruled steady within a rather narrow
range, compared with recent widely
fluctuating markets.
In spite of the hesitancy shown by
live stock shippers generally, the lo
cal yards received 591 hogs, '84 head
of cattle, 38 veal3 and 20 lambs. Out
side of 38 spring pigs fed by Wora
Payne, of Glen Kara, that sold for
$17 on Tuesday, 16 cents was practi
cally the top on good hogs sold late
in the week.
With reference to the Intake for the
week, Rome Shurley, said: "D. Hog
gatt sent in 65 hogs, fed by William
Hearnley of Randolph county, which
averaged 300 pounds, and brought
$16.65 over the scales. Ozro Bales
brought in 75 head that netted $2,581
at $16.75, and OUie Hodgin marketed
93 head, fed by William Miller and
Edward Medaugh, that sold for $2,398,
at $16.35 per 100. Charles Longnecker
sold 28 May pigs at $16, the net being
$617.50.
"In addition to these, were 105 hogs
delivered In small lots at various
prices, which weighed 17,510, and cost
us $2,880.
The bulk of cattle was on through
billing, although there were several
cows received good enough to com
mand 10c and 11c, with a little better
market all up and down the list.
Veals ruled steady, a range of 8c to
17c as to quality, but lambs were very
dull, selling at 6c to 10c; sheep at 4c
to 5c and bucks at $2 to $3 per hun
dred pounds.

Teeth Made Beautiful
In a Few Moments
Don't deceive yourself into believing
that because you brush your teeth reg
ularly they are free from stains. Just
take a careful look at them In a mirror
at the window where there's good day
light. Why do you find yellow or
black spots or tartar on them? Be
cause the dentrlflce you use is power
less to remove such blemishes, no mat--ter
how often you scrub your teeth.
Those stains ere really discolored
films, thin coatings of fat, which the
usual pastes, creams and powders fall
to dissolve.
You will welcome the information
that a remarkable product recently in
troduced through th drug-grists here,
known as "Once-a-Week Tooth Pol
ish." will completely remove all
stains and spots so quickly you hardly
believe your own eyes. Just use it
like any dentifrice and after the first
brushing, look in your mirror again
you will be astonished, to say the
least. You will know then what it is
to have teeth that are truly white,
clean and sparkling. Onoe-a-Week
Tooth Polish is a teeth-saver as well
as beautlflor. for keeping- the teeth
polished prevents decay. Your dentist,
will tell you so. Adv. i

A Sale TDialt WISH Save Our Customers
ol Dollars A Most Opportune E
This sale of Rugs, as compared with the present rug market, is an event that should interest every home in Richmond insofar that everyone
knows the old maxim is true "'That a dollar saved is worth two earned." You ask why "REEDS" can have a rug sale in the face of the ad
vancing market. Here is the answer: Our buyer has just returned from the rug market and while there was quoted prices on rugs in large
quantities, that were materially lower than regular quoted price, and having the welfare of the buying public in mind, bought heavily, and, hav
ing them now on display, we are today going to give you the benefit of those prices. There are no seconds or mismated Rugs in our stock.
Every rug is of first quality and the "Reed Store" is back of them all, as these are all rugs whose quality is never questioned and of lines which
appear regularly in our stock.
