Hog Price Pretty Low
Messrs. Harry Creamer and Phillip
Kcil shipped a car of hogs to the Ne
braska City market last Tuesday, they
being transported by Mr. frank Mra
sek. The market was pretty well
shot in the language of the shippers
and the roads filled with trucks haul- I
ing stock to the markets. The ma-1
jority of the hogs sold at a little
larly nice sow, smooth, but a little
over weight, sold as low as 4 1-4 on
the load which they took. One man
who had a heavy barrow, but little
inclined to be staggy, received only
hree and a half with an added dcck
age of 70 pounds on his hog. This
looked very discouraging, but he had
to accept the price or return home
with the hogs.
