Quality of the offering averaged better than at any other time this fall, but buyers were determined to have them for less money. The general price trend showed weak ness, with some kinds dipping from 25c to 50c. Supplies in the calf division were heavier than on any previ ous Monday this season. A top prica of $13.25 was paid on a few steer calves; bulk placed from $12.00 to $13.00. Heifer calves bulked from $11.50 to $12.25, with a few reaching slightly higher. Yearling steers reached an ex treme top of $12 75, but the long end of supplies placed from $11.50 to $12.25. Supplies were heavy. Heifers in this class ranged in price from $ 10.50 to $11.25, with an extreme top of $11.75. Two year-old steers scaling 825 pounds brought from $12.60 down. The best beef cows paid $11.75, that price paid sparingly. Bnlk of the beef cow trade ticketed $10.50 to $11.50. Plainer kinds cashed at $9.00 to $10.00. Common grades made the eights, with canners and cutters ranging from $6.25 to $7.25. Bulls were scarce and top ped at $11.50. Hog receipts tapered off some what with around 500 on sale here. Butcher hogs topped at $14.10; bulk moved at $13.75 to $14.05. Sows reached $13.80, with $13.70 to $13.75 claiming the long end. Feeder pigs of which there was a good supply, brought $13.35 for the day’s top; however, sev eral long strings ranged in price from $12.00 to $12.70. A limited supply of lambs brought from $11.25 to $11.50 per cwt. Two special livestock auctions are scheduled at the local market for the week of October 4. The first sale will be the annual calf show and auction on Monday, October 4. Club calves will be judged at the sale pavilion at 10 a. m. on Monday and the sale will beein immediately following the judging. On Thursday, October 7th the annual Sandhills Feeder Auction will be held. Both of these sales will bring many choice quality cattle to the local market and the extensive advertising program of these two outstanding livestock events will attract many inter ested buyers. Must Continue To Give Away Book Matches Retailers, who during March, 1942, gave away book matches to purchasers of tobacco products, have been cautioned by R. E. Armbruster, chairman of the Holt County War Price and Rationing Board, that they must continue to give away the matches when sales of these tobacco products are made. A recent amendment to the regulation, covering sales of not only wooden matches but also paper book matches, specifically calls for the continuation of this practice where it was followed in March, 1842. This same amend ment “spells out’’ retail ceiling prices for book matches sold by various types of stores, effective September 27. Nebraska Plan Wins National Support Country bankers throughout Nebraska will be officially noti fied this week that the two-year campaign of the Nebraska Bank ers Association to protect small communities against government subsidized cimpetition has at last succeeded in winning complete support of the American Bank ers Association. A group of Nebraska bankers attended a conference of country bankers from forty-one states in New York last week prior to the A.B.A. convention. This country bankers’ conference adopted a resolution prepared by the Ne braska bankers urging a separate congressional i n v e s t i gation of Production Credit Cystem, and this was later approved by the convention. This finally accomplishes the purpose of Nebraska bankers to build up a solid front of the na tion’s bankers to oppose the in roads of PCA in the field of com mercial banking. So that this may become a national issue in stead of merely a protest from individual states, the American Bankers Association will now act ively support the bills of! Nebras ka Senators Butler and Wherry, which are aimed to restrict op erations of PCA and RACC to their original purpose of emerg eniy lending, and to stop them short of the field of socialized credit, which carries the threat of regimented farming. T. W. Semlak of Norfolk, who came last week to attend the fu neral of his mother-in law, Mrs. Thomas Enright, returned to his home at Norfolk last Saturday morning. Pvt.

Cof fee of the committee in charge revealed Saturday. Tabulation of entries, now clos ed, also assures Ak-Sar-Ben’s continued position as the world’s largest 4-H baby beef exposition. Coffee added. Slightly over 400 beeves have been entered by farm boys and girls of Nebraska, Iowa and surrounding states in the competition, which will be held in the horse barns at the Union Stockyards, South Omaha. Because of wartime conditions, the number of calves is not quite up to that of a year ago, Coffee reports, but offsetting that is the showing of swine.

Morgenthau has just tele graphed the J. C. Penney Com pany congratulations on the mag nificent job of bond selling which the company’s 160 stores turned in during the month of July. Last July, the Penney Company sold 8V4 million dollars in war stamps and bonds to set a high record for the chain and depart ment store business. This year, in an attempt to surpass the 1942 figures, a quota of ten million dol lars was set. The complete report for July, which was forwarded to the Secretary of the Treasury last week, aonounced the amaz ing total of $42,335,816.85, or four times the quota set for the cam paign, and very nearly five times the figure of the preceding year. In this one month Penney stores sold 25% more in bonds and stamps than in merchandise. In terms of war equipment, this means 500 fighter planes, 200 light tanks, 5 destroyers and 5 sub marines. News of this July achievement, together with the Secretary’s tel egram of congratulations, were released at a time when the Pen ney Company was engaged in an all-out endeavor to go over the top again this September in the third war loan drive. While the company average of ^ bond sales for July amounted to 125% of its merchandise sales, individual stores and individual states turned in far greater per centages. Army, navy, coast guard, and marine men and women, gover nors, senators, mayors, and stars of stage, screen and radio ap peared at Penney stores from cdbst to coast during the cam paign. One store auctioned off baseballs for bonds, autographed by the New York Yankees, the Brooklyn Dodgers, the St. Louis Cardinals, and the Washington Senators. Many of the Penney Company’s own 4,674 men and women in service appeared, among them such outstanding heroes as Lt. Bob Smith of Stephenville, Tex., pilot of the flying fortress, “Dear ly Beloved” that accounted for eleven German fighter planes on one bombing raid. Not only Penney window space, but advertising space as well, was given over generously to the bond sales cause. Tens of thousands of column inches of advertising urged the purchase of bonds. Altogether eight Penney asso ciates sold more than half a mil lion apiece in war bonds and stamps. The average Penney as sociate sold more than $1,000 in bonds and stamps.
