pretty decent orders, and as packers all
needed some good hoga trading started
early on a fully 6c hlxlier basis. In fact,
'ompetltlnn of the desirable kinds was
so strong that at one tune salra looked
as much as 6'O'H'o -tlrher. All buyers,
however, continued to t.o very Indifferent
toward the commoner mixed and under
wclkht kinds, and in oniy a few Inalanoes
were sellers ablw. to gU action on these
kinds early.
A good share of the hogs sold up to
noon hroucht fully 4o higher prloes. with
some of the laat sales made being little
If anv mora than steady. Up to tots time
most of the ssles were at a spread of
!. to 3.4f. but J u. Wing from the last
bids made packers wanted many of the
hoga that were left at prlcea that ranged
on down toward 31.00, and were bidding
under the hill In aomo cases.
The sales quoted continue to be more
or leas misleading, so far aa giving a line
on the general market la concerned. A
good share of the light stuff that does
sell moves too late to be quoted.

REPORTED TO BE IMPROVING
Thrown violently from his horse In an
Impact with one of the concrete and
ateel underground bridges at the Stock
Yards, William Rout, son of W. R.
Routt, engineer In .he employ of the
Union Stock Tarda company, narrowly
eacaped death or aer!oi,a Injury Monday
morning, while riding lor a commission
firm In the yards. As rider and horse
were about to pane under one of the
concrete brldgea. aomething frightened
the steed and the tatter bolted. Toung
Routt was knocked sq' nrely between the
eyes and thrown unconclous to the pave
ment below.
The young man waa hurriedly removed
to his home at 3902 8jnth Twenty-fourth
street and medical all summoned. Sev
eral stitches were taken In the cut
which did not prove serious. Had the
blow struck a few inches higher It Is
thought that a fracture would have re
sulted. Mr. Routt Is reported to be
slowly Improving.
Ills Price of Feeder Sheep.
The high price of iocdor aheep on the
local market will havo considerable to do
with the alacrity with which aheepmen
of Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming,
who have been steady annual season
buyers in thla class of stock previous
to the present year, b'jy- such stock this
year. Contrary to reports emanating
from Wyoming that high prices are
belnh' paid for suoh stock In that stato,
Albert Nichols of Aulr, Colo., who waa
at the local yards yes'erday with a con
signment of stock, was of the opinion
that between 28 and SO per cent of the
present sheep herds !n this state were
still In feeder lots.
That sheep feeders would turn them
selves into the cattle business, because
of the high prices of feeder stock at
present and which a!ow good prospect
of being just aa hU'i throughout the
entire summer, would be very unlikely
according to Nichols. He said that if
worst come to worst, theae men would
go out of buatnons altogether In such
a case. He also said that he haa good
reason to believe that sheepmen would
not be buying feeder. until way later
than the usual summer rush this year.
Nar Lampe Bind Heachelden.
A g-ood German friend and customer
said to ug the other day, "If Flynn would
advertise hla goods right, ha ought to
sell all the suits worn In South Omaha."
We explained to him that if we fol
lowed the lead of the modern advertiser,
marked goods so we could sell them at
half price and still make a profit and pay
for a lot of advertising, our goods and
prlcea would not impress him and cause
him to make the remarks he had Just
made and that we were not built right
for that kind of a business anyway. He
came back at ua with "Nur lumpe alnd
bescheiden," which translated means
"Only foola are modest." We're not too
modesttoo short on word fits better
but if you hear ua make more noise you'll
know whence the que.
