Cattle As usual receipts for the week
have been fairly liberal fully as large as
for the week previous and some 4.000 head
heavier than for the corresponding week
last year.
Not a great many cornfed cattle are com
ing at this time as the season is just about
over, while fully 60 per cent of the arrivals
have been grass cattle direct from western
ranges.
Strictly good cornfed cattle have been
In fairly active demand right along, and
prices are about on a par with a week ago.
In grass cattle the tiade has been very un
even, prices declining sharply the first part
of the week, and the decline being prac
tically all recovered later after the good
eeneral rains of Tuesday and Wednesday.
In the main beef cattle prices are In very
nearly the same notcliei as they were one
week ago.

Hobs The hog trade was active this
mornlnsf at orlces that ranged from -5c
to as much as 26c higher. Both shippers
and packers were .free buyers and the yards
were cleaned by an early nour. or a oai
UTday the run was fairly large. Bulk sold
at $15.00(3! 16.30. with a scattering on up to
$16.00. Nothing real choice was here. For
the week prices are around toe nigncr,
though some of this may be due to the
quality of the offerings, which haa been
tho best of the summer.

Truck Gardener Who Sells Milk
Ordered by Judge to Sell

Complaint.
"Just look at his hands. Thai's a
fair example," said Claude A. Bossie,
city milk inspector, pointing to the
dirty hands which Bob Novak, who
was in South Side police court
charged with keeping an unsanitary
dairy, had rested on the desk.
Novak drew his hands behind him,
shrugged his shoulders, and said:
"Well, I'm a working man."
"Your honor, his place is the
filthiest I've ever seen in Omaha,"
testified Milk Inspector Bossie.

road, southeast of bt. Jean, were

The rain stopped at least temp

concentrated a heavy artillery fire on
tbe positions surrounding it and M,
Julien was turned into a no man s
land," unoccupied by troops of either
side.
Yesterday forenoon the British in
creased the intensity of their gun fire
with disastrous effect on the German
batteries and then, under cover of a
heavy and effective barrage, sent the
infantry forward to occupy the place
and again straighten their line. This
area has been consolidated and the
