Other points were heavily loaded and prices were everywhere a little lower. This mar ket did not show any exception to the rule, trade being slow and dull at the opening, with price anywhere from weak to lOo lower, and on some kinds poaslbty more than that. Owing to the large number or cattle to be handled It was after midday .before - a elearaned was effected.

Shippers had a- few orders which they filled at prices that were easily stronger and were called So higher by some sellers. They paid ae high as $10.10 for best butchers, but this was considered no higher, as It took better hogs than wore hers Saturday to bring the money. As a general thing packers bid 'lower from ths outset, and eventually bought most of their hogs t figures thut were, en paper at least, a good nickel lower than Saturday, They claimed that quality was even poorer than It was at the close of last week and called part of their purchases steady, qual ity considered. A few of the salesmen shared this view, though most of them called the packer trade a flat nickel lower, which It undoubtedly was so far as actual prices were concerned. Despite the unevenness of ths trade, near ly all ths hogs had changed hands before 10 o'clock, there being only the usual few scattering bunches left at that time. Bulk of ths sales was made at $10.16010.16, with some of the poorest kinds even below that, the top, as noted, reaching $10.60. . Representative sales: No. Av. Sh. Pr. No. Av. Sh. Pr.

Although wheat ad vanced to the highest Drlcei vet thi. .... son today, tha market rt -.,-, .t owing largely to an Increase In the United r..iDe auypiy total. Prices closed weak at $16601.66 for DecPmber and 11.64 for May, with the market aa a whole off to up, compared with Sat urday s .finish. Corn lost and oau U u. points. In provisions the outcome iV , 9 arnne to a llKe advance. heat values had a decided upward slant during the first half of the session Commission houees. exporters and mills wre all active buyers, with offerings rela tively scarce. N.ws of a probable crop failure In Argentina unless rain came soon tended to stimulate purchasing, and so, too did a material falling off in world ship ments. Arguments based on the poeslblllty of a sudden end of the Burooean wa n the chance of a release of Rueelan eup. 10 rnerK i ne upward swing of valuns. As soon, however, as the United States' visible supply figures began to indicate that the total this week would be materially bigger than was the case a week ago, the market showed a -V position to react. Profit-taking by holders of wheat as sumed large proportions In the last part of the day. Accompanying setbacks In prices became more and more pronounced especially the final halt hour. The rush to realize left the market In the end at vir tually the lowest level of the Been Ion. Corn swayed with wheat. An Increase In the vlelble supply of com acted as a late element of weakness. Oats were steadied to some extent by export sales of 600.000 bushels. Nevertheless the market gave evi dence!) of sympathy when down turns took place in the price of other cereals. Provinlons were rather slow. Packers Packers sold distant futures, and appeared to be backing away from high-priced hogs.

S. Government has gathered reliable figures as to the value per acre of Farm Land in every state in the Union. ( . The Government takes the value of all the lands in a siate, the high-priced land and the low-priced land, and then strikes an average. On Page 36 of the "Monthly Crop Report" for April, 1916, published by authority of the Secretary of Agriculture, is found a comparison of the average value per acre of land with improvements, as follows: NEBRASKA K A N S A S The U. S. Government states officially that the average value per acre of land with improvements is $18.00 per acre less in Kansas than in Nebraska. On a quarter section this amounts to $2,880.00. The soil of Kansas in every way is equal to that of Nebraska. Climatic conditions are the same. THEN WHY THIS DIFFERENCE IN FAVOR OF NEBRASKA? THE ANSWER IS SIMPLY THIS: PRO HIBITION!
