The Hog Market.
Editor Triiiunb:
Persons unacquainted with the
facts may imagine that the hog
buyers of this citv are taking ad
vantage ol the farmers in paying
such low prices. Such is not the
case. The buyers and shippers of
hogs at this point, as a rule, have
1 st money. Baskin&Ci pa'd out
nearly $25,000 for hogs and their
shipping returns show a profit of
about $160, allowing nothing for
time and expenses. John Burke &
Co. later paid out some $19,000 for
that product and got out with a
loss of $85, ft 'tiring nothing for
time and expenses. Lindsay, Love
land & Beer, Mills and others have
tried it, some of these having their
own scales and yards, and then lost
money. It was not the fault of the
Stock Yards Co , as its pens are
free with plenty of fresh water f r
the hogs; neither can the los be
attributed to the railroad companv,
who give the shipper good service
to both Omaha and Denver markets.
The trouble is the hogs cjtne to
this city at any and all times and
buyers olten have to hold tlam
from a week to ten days in order to
get a car load. This mean -brink
in ilesh nnd expense in feeding high
priced corn. The remedy is si.i.ple.
It is this: Establish certain days,
say Monday and Tuesday of each
week, as hog market days. The
ground just west ol the stockyards
can, no doi bt, be secured from the
railroad company as a market place,
when, if the farmers will bring in
their hogs or other live stock they
will find competitive buyers at
highest market prices. The buyers
will be in closer touch with the
market and less liable to go broke
in the business. John Bratt,

Cattlemen to Organize.
A number of tbe cattlemen from
tbis vicinity, and those liavinn
ranpeB north of the river, met
Tuesday to arrange matters for the
purpose of organizing a Cattle
men's AsHoriation. They held an
intormnl meeting and decided to
call a meeting May 3, when the
reyul ir organization will be effect
ed. This is a step in the riu'.it
direction and one that has forced
itself on the owners of ranches.
They find it necessary for the pro
tection of their herds. The past
year has been otic of considerable
loss to the cosv man. There has
been more reports of the loss nl
cattle by straying or being driven
away the last season than ever be
fore in the history of cattle ranging
in the country north. It is the
purpose of the association to take
in a scope ol country, commencing
on the Keysione pasture on the
west, Lena the north and Brady
Island the east. Included in this
territory will be ranches south of
and between the rivers. They ex
pect to organize this territory tutu
an association tor tnutual protec
tion aiaiust cattle rustlers and
those who carelessly drive on? stock
in herds that pabs through the
range. They will employ an ex
pert in brands to ride the range
and keep tab on the cattle of the
members of the association and his
services will, doubtless, be found
invaluable to the btock men. Their
brands will be protected in the
stock markets of Omaha and other
shipping points where western
cattle are marketed. The protec
tion of the range from lire is an
other feature worthy ot cousidera
tion. Sutherlaad Krce Lance.
In any of the particular lines
which Doolittle carries, you are
always sure of the largest and best
assortment there. This is especi
ally true ol Athletic Goods. Look
at the two entire counters devuled
o Base Ball goods alone and be
convinced.

Strangers in the city specially
invited.

Quite a number ol new men are
seen in the shops today. They will
find the Y. M. C. A. a good place
to spend their evenings. An invita
tion is extended to all.
The suggestion of John Bratt
that the bog buyers of the city se
lect two days per week to be know'n
as hog market days is an excellent
one, both for the sellers and the
buyers. This plan has been
adopted by many towns in western
Nebraska and found to be very
satisfactory.
