Markets
LIVESTOCK SUMMARY
The feature of the livestock market
last week was the high prices paid for
hogs, which went to $11.95, breaking
previous records for three days in suc
cession. Other markets than that at
South St. Paul reflected the same am
bition to buy pork with corresponding
ly high prices. There were fair re
ceipts throughout the week, but the
seeming narrowing of the cattle and
sheep supply has apparently caused
-packers to substitute hogs.
The South St. Paul cattle market
was shy of supplies most of the week,
but the first day of big receipts, Fri
day, when 4800 head arrived, the price
caved away 15 cents. Trade was dull
for the first two days because stock
trains which should have arrived Sun
day, were delayed by snows throughout
the Northwest, and there was little
beef stuff on which the packers ceuld
wortc A few lots of steers suitable for
further fattening and also for imme
diate killing, caused some competition
between packers and speculators, but
the stocker and feeder demand is not
strong during these weeks.
The sheep market was slack most of
the week, but a new high top for fat
spring lambs was made, namely. $13.50,
which is 25 cents better than has been
paid for weeks. A few choice fat ones
drew more, but in the sheep house
there was little trade, and the several
carloads of high grade mutton that
came into South St. Paul during the
week, were merely for stopover and
for shipment on east. Sheep men say
they can get more for their lambs in
Chicago and other markets, even after
paying stopover charges and trying out
the South St. Paul market. A good
deal of the sheep stuff dealt in consists
of medium ewes/and bucks, with some
second rate lambs to furnish the best
killing. I'
WHEAT SUMMARY
An uneventful week-in grain circles
was that of January 22 to 27. Although
the week opened a fraction of a cent
higher than it closed the Saturday be
fore, there was little of importance in
the development, and by"*Friday it had
dropped three to 'four cents for futures
below the week's opening.
The rumors -of possible peace, and of
submarine activities were heard, and
the peace rumors on Wednesday
caused' a sudden drop, but- there was
little else to affect prices on speculat
ors' wheat. There jvere rumors that
some big New York houses were short
of wheat to cover contracts, and that
submarines will be set to sinking^all
grain ships bound for Europe Febru
ary 1, but these things have been heard
so often, and there is believed to be
such a shortage of "actual wheat in this
country for its own consumption, that
•they did not seriously affect the
prospect for May and July deliveries.
Actual wheat arriving in Minneapolis,
fell far short of that for the corre
sponding, week last year. But in spjte
of this, there was a net loss in cash
wheat of from six to seven cents per
bushel.:

YOU WANT TO READ IT!

Mr. H. L. Loocks,
Watatown, S. D.
Dear Sir:
I have read the manuscript, submitted
to me, of your bode "The Great Cooupto
*cy." and cannot resist congratulating you
upon the splendid imp of this important
subject which you demonstrate In your
manuscript.
It is keen, concise, clear and convincing.
It has the driving power of a dynamo, and
cuts as clean as a scalpel.
We may have all the co-operation which
the age demands, in the production of
wealth, but if we have therewith, private
monopoly of the means through which
exchange is effected, we are still slaves.
Raw material wasting in warehouses,
unused labor rotting in penitentiaries and
insane asylums, and tramping the streets,
are all a legitimate fruit of private monop
oly of money of account.
Your exposure of our rotten financial
system, grounded by the Federal Reserve
Act, is timely and efficient.
I hope for a wide circulation of your
book.
Signed, Arthur LeSeoer. Pres.
