Prices have been very uneven during tne week, but at the close they Bhow a mod erate advance. Monday's decline was heavy, out It was more than recovered later in the week, while on Friday there was a little reaction and a rather lower close. Packers have been discriminating against the higher priced beef of late and favoring the short fed and warmed up grades on ac count of their cheapness. As a consequence prices at tne close of tne week ior tne gooa to choice cattle are very little different from a week ago, while the medium fatr grades show an advance of tVl6u all around. The weak feeling at the close of the week would Indicate that the demand next week will hardly be as broad as It nas been and It win take moderate sup- piles to maintain values. In spite of the weakness In fat cattle the market for cows and heifers held up firmer throughout the week. Ixical packers all had liberal orders to fill, while the demand from eastern butchers was good all the week and at the close prices show an advance and are quoted 26c higher on the good kinds. Business In stockers and feeders has been somewhat restricted owing to the light re ceipts of that kind of cattle. The Inquiry has exceeded the supply so that values have been held up throughout the week and are unevenly higher at the close.

HOGS Receipts today numbered 141 cars about 9.800 head, a very good run for the last day of the week. Becclpts for the week foot up about 69.000 head as against 46.612 head last week and 79,!i a year ago. The chief feature of the market this morning was the active demand. The toppy grades sold freely at around steady figures, while some of the commoner kinds were quoted somewhat lower, so that the market In general was anywhere from steady to 6c lower than yesterday. Free buying by packers stimulated the move ment and, while the trade was active, the best that sellers could do was to secure only about steady prices on the best grades. The top sold up to JO. 12. the highest price of the week, with the bulk $5. iiK(jo.9S. as against a bulk yesterday of $5.766.96.

The chances of rolling up enormous profits in Rawhide Coalition in a short period now appear to be overwhelmingly greater than by an In vestment In any other security, railroad, industrial or mining, on the entire American securities list, and I urgently advise immediate purchase at anything near prevailing quotations for the biggest stock market and dividend profit ever made by investors in their careers. HAS NO PEER IN THE WEST Born in February, 1908, the Rawhide. Coalition Mines company has beaten every Nevada gold mine record for quick developments. Not in Goldtield, nor Tonopah, nor Ely, nor any other Nevada mining- camp could any one company boast of the following: In the first eleven months of Rawhide Coalition's career $100,000 has been spent for mining machinery with which to open up the property. Twenty-one ma chine hoists of an average of twenty horsepower each have been installed and are in operation. Approxi mately more than $500,000 has been spent in exploring and developing the ore bodies. Two miles of underground work has been done. More money is being spent to develop the property this month. More miners are at work and more underground work is being done than in any other month of the com pany's career. So great is the ore showing on a single leaser's ground of only about 600 feet square in a total company acreage of nearly two-thirds of a mile square that this leaser has or dered a mill of 75 tons per day capacity to treat its ore alone. Of a capitalization of 3,000,000 shares the company has still a reserve of 700,000 shares Intact, unused and unsold with which to provide Itself with development funds, mills, etc., when the leasers shall have discontinued next year, and It has money In Its treasury now. The company h&a practically been on a self-sustaining basis from its incep tion, the royalties received from leasers being at all times) sufficient to defray current expenses during the exploratory and development period, 95 per cent of the money spent in development and proving up the ore bodies has come out of the pockets of the leasers. High grade ore has already been shipped to the smelters from nine separate and dis tinct wokings on the property, and ore of commercial value has been disclosed in not less than fifteen wokings. It is the opinion of President E. W. King, the far-famed Montana gold mine magnate, that there is already in sight on company ground, without any scientific endeavor hav ing been made as yet to block out ores for purpose of measurement, sufficient ore to keep a 225-ton per day mill busy for years. On ore already in sight the net earning capacity of the company at the age of 11 months is esti mated at $700,000 per year when proper milling facilities shall have been installed. Of an Issued capitalization of 2,300,000 shares selling on the New York and Boston curbs and San Francisco stock exchange at 67 to 70 cents, this would make Raw hide Coalition at least at a 60 per cent per annum divi dend earner. ENORMOUS PROFIT POSSIBILITIES Buy Rawhide Coalition today "at the market." Order through any reputable stock broker, stock ex change member or "wire" house. Buy It outright for cash, and not on margin. , Stick it away for half a year or so. In a single month in 1906 Mohawk or Goldfleld advanced from 50 cents to $20 per share. One blast in the lower workings of the Hawyes-Mon-nefte lease opened up a treasure chamber and accom plished the feat. The ground of the Rawhide Coalition is four times as large as the Mohawk and more money 1b be ing spent in opening up the Coalition today than was be ing spent on the Mohawk. Rawhide is in the same county as Goldfleld and already threatens Goldfield's laurels as a producer of gold bullion. It will surprise few mining men in the west if Coalition repeats the record of the Mohawk. Buy the shares now while they are still selling for a frac tion of their value. I predict $2.50 for Rawhide Coalition by spring time, and $5 before the year is out. In the end the truth always prevails, and the truth about Rawhide Coalition is that never in the history of mining share trading in the east or west has the public been offered the chance of getting into a high class speculative Investment security on the the ground floor, sub-cellar basis of Rawhide Coalition.

The run during the week has been fairly liberal, and It will be noted lrom the figures above that the receipts were larger than for the previous week and also larger than for the same period last year. It has beun a seller's market throughout the week, us prices on every thing in the way of fat sheep and la.ubs show a marked Improvement over a week ego. As a rule, values cn all fut grades are 4otj60c h gher thsn a week ago, with the supply inadequate to the active de rrsnd. The advance In prices this week places values at the bight hi point reached this season on all fat grades. Fat lambe sold up to $7.76. yearlings at SS.8& and ewes up to S6.1. all record prices for the sen son. There has also been a good demand for feeding stuff for this staaun of the year. However, very few sheep and lambs of that description have been received. The demand has been lilmral and anytlilnir ar riving has met with very ready sale at current quotations.
