Holiday. CATTLE As' usual on the last day of the week there were not enough cattle on sale to make a market or Interest buyers. For the week reclepts have been quite liberal as compared with last week and not much different from the same week last year. , ,. Considering that this lias been a holiday week the market us a whole has been In fair condition. Under the influence Of the very good buying demand prevailing beef cattle firmed up during the. first part of the week, but later on under the Influence .,f the. iinvec break in values at Chicago "consequent upon burdensome receipts the market eased otr again, ai me cume ui the week th market is not much different from wliat it was one week ago as regards values. , , The market on cows and heifers has been in a good healthy condition all the week. The better grades have sold freely and at the close are possibly a little stronger. On the other hand inferior kinds have been rather slow and are a little eatier than one-week ago. The mobt unsatisfactory feature of the trade has been the very poor demand for stockers and feeders. While a few strictly fleshv feeders, such as packers will bid on, are still held at firm prices and about as high as last week, the market on the common and thin kinds has been extremely slow and dull, with receivers finding it hard work to unload their holdings. At the close of the week that kind of cattle may safely be limited at 15Cu25c lower. Even at the decline it Is hard work to move that class of cattle, as no one ieems to want them.

IUMIS The new year started out with such light receipts that there were hardly enough hogs on role to make u real test of the market. When the trade opened only twenty-one cars were reported In and only nlno or ten back. In addition to the fresh receipts there were flye cars that came in late yesterday after packers bad filled their orders that had to be carried over or sold lower. With so few hogs In sight and with early advices from Chicago Indicating a lower rane n' prices at that point there was nothing here to put life ot snap Into the trade, etill packers seemed to want the hogs and considering everything the market was not bad. In faet prices paid were steady to stronger than yester day and the most of the early hoss sold in good season. A considerable proportion of the better hogs sold at t. 208.2" and on up as high as t.35 for the best. The lighter hogs -Bold from td.20 down. Common louds running from rough heavy down to pigs, were slow, no one being very anxious for that kind any day. No. Av. Sh. Pr. No. A v. Sli.

Although the total rec.lpts for the week are a few thousand head heavier than either last week or the same week of the previous year, packers were anxious for good killing material from the opening and prices ruled slisiuly higher on both sheep and lambs during Monday's session. A good strong lone to the demand during the balance if the we-k made it easy for salesmen to maintain Monday's quotations and while prices have naturally shown some weakness or strength at times, the week Is closing with most values Just bbout In the same notches as they were on Tuesday.

Some orchards in the Spokane country netted the owners over $1,500 per acre in 1!)0!J. Our soil is a deep, black loam, clay subsoil. No gravel, no rock, no irriga tion. We are the largest orchard operators in the Spokane country having sold nearly L',000 acres in the past two years. N Let us select a 5 or 10-acre tract in our new 1,000-acre addition and act vou fed lambs sold at t'-50 yesterday, but the big run of toppy stuff is hardly quotable over t.25. The demand for good owes con tinues active and prices all the way from COs to tl.00 higher than last Janusry. Some good natives realized t5.60 Thursday, whereas top natives were quoted up to 4 K' a year ago today. There have been very few desirable wethers in the week's run and gooil light yearlings have also been scarce. Most of the yearlings received here lately hare averaged right around 100 pounds, but strictly prime lightweights would no doubt sell as high as t7.25. The feeder situation this week has pre m ii ted no especially new featu.-es. Suit able warmed-up and short-fed grades arcs till eagerly sought by finishers, but the rtctual volume of trade is not very broad. Prices are fullv firm with a week ago.

STORM RETARDS DISTRIBUTION General Indastrlal and Mercantile Conditions Are In Excellent Shape Bin; Demand for Iron and Steel in I'rospect. i. NEW YORK. Jan. l.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade today says: Except for holiday trade, which has been active and Indicative of the substantial prosperity of th country, there has been the moderate trade recession usual In the closing week of the year. The big- storm has served also to retard distribution, while the railroad strjke continues a cause of soma dlntiirbtuice' The effect of high price cotton Is felt to some extent In the dry goods trade, making for greater cau tion on the part of both producers and buyers. But after making due allowances for these drawbacks, the fact remains that the year closes with general industrial and mercantile conditions In excellent shape, and while there are problems of hlKh pricis Involving contentions between capital and labor, and problems of politics Involving the relations of the corporations to the publio, these are no more serious or acute than thorn which confront the business community at all times. Although the year closed with a season able contraction in the demand for Iron and steel prospects are bright for an active business early in 1910 and most producers now have sufficient orders on their books to Insure full operations for some time to come; many mills in the Pittsburg district will not observe the New Year's holiday because of the heavy tonnage calling for prompt delivery. Sales of print cloth yarn fabrics at Tall River last week amount to about lao.iHW pieces, and trading was restricted, owing to tha unwillingness of mills to Increase tbelr contracts while cotton is advancing. Cotton goods houses generally look for an active trade by tha middle of January. Export trade with the far east la quiet. In tha woolen goods division purchasers of worsted warp broadcloths have not been up to the record of a year ago, and it Is thought that ordering may be slow when the semi-fancy and fancy lines are opened. Jobbing trade on dress goods has been light. In men's wear, salesman on the road are sending in some good orders for wool suitings but the local market con tinues qulot. There has been a better In quiry for cotton yarns, but woolen and worsted yarns are quiet. With both buyers and sellers of foot wear still engaged on Inventories t he vol ume of new business continues small. Man ufacturers, however, still have a fair amount of reserve orders and It Is expected that business will resume normal propor tions shortly. Prices remain firm, owing to the high oot of material.
