These eggs will hatch on an aver age, 25 livo chloks of which 12 will be pullets. With proper care, they will lay 4 dozen eggs weekly, the amount consumed by the average family. Two piano boxes placed back to back make a poultry house large enough to winter 12 pullets. Such boxes cost 13 caoh. The cost of feed required to raise the pullets will bo offset by the income from the sale of cockerels. Moreover, table scraps (nearly a mil lion dollars worth of which is wasted annually in tho United States) can be utilized. Pays First Booze Fine The fact that the state is dry and that the officials Intend to enforce the laws regarding tho sale and consump tion of liquor was clearly demonstrat ed on last Thursday afternoon, when in response to a complaint Qled by County Attorney Munday, Sheriff Hulfer went to Guide Rock and took into custody Bert Kalloy. He was brought before County Judge Itanney, Friday morning, where he plead guilty to the charge of Intoxication and was assessed a tine and costs which amount ed to 822.75. Rather expensive little spree, even though the honor of being the first contrlbuter to the cause may be claimed by Mr. Kalloy, Beans as a War Crop Because of their great value as humau food, beans are rescommeuded as a ,lwnr crop" to replant winterkilled crops in Nebraska. According to a new bulletin lssuod by the Agricultural Extcuslou Service, they are not only rich in protein but peculiarly uourish lug The climate and soil of Nebras ka, especially of the western part of the State, are favorable to beau pro duction.

Thirteen thou sand hogs sold 10 lower, top $15.75, and four thousand sheep sold strong, Arizona lambs $15. BEEP CATTLE The best cattle here were pulp fed steers from Colorado and Western Ne braska, 18 cars of theso selling at $12 to $12.25, best natives here at $11.75, to $12, short fed natives $10.50 to $11.50, light weight cattle without much flesh, $9 to $10. The supply of pulp cattle was 35 cars, about one half as many as on recent Mondays. Few are in sight for later this week, and the supply of that kind will be very light after this week. Butcher cattlo hold their strength, the search for substitutes for steers- nt this sea son always resulting in high prices for cjows, Heifer and bulls. Good cows sell around $10, bulls up to $10, nuuera ii.jo, veai calves up to $13. 50. STOCKERS and FEEDERS Six loads of stock steers sold at $10.30 the first thing this morning, a strong price, and fancy stock hei fers at $10.25, few stock steers sell under $8, and stock cows commence around $7. Feeding steers sell nt $9.50 to $10.50, a few fleshy steers in the Inst week up to $11.25. Prices are 25 to 35 higher than a week ago, with a very good demand. HOGS A good run at Chicago today weak ened the situation, and sales here were 10 lower, top $15.75, medium weights to $15.70, best light weights $15.40, bulk of sales $15 to $15.70. Supplies here are augmented by daily arrivals of shipments of hogs from western range states, California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado consign ments having become regular inci dents. These hogs arc generally light weight but that class is meet ing a good demand from bacon mak ers, and sales of hogs 150 lbs. and up wards average 10 to 25 higher than Inst week. Pigs sell at $11.50 to $13.75 in most cases. SHEEP and LAMBS Choice wooled lambs sold up to $17.(50 last week, and lambs of that grade would bring more money to day, if there were any offered. Ari zona nnd California spring lambs each reached $10.50 last week, some Arizonas not quite so good here today at $1(5. Texas is the big disappoint ment, Fending only very small sun- plies of common sheen, and few rroats. One double deck of Angora brushers, i ids., average, sold nt 9 last week Twenty thousand brusher goats would I e required to fill orders already held here. .1. A. RICKART, Market Correspondent.
