THE WORLD E ATTHETRAINIlie CAMPS By H. C. HAMILTON (United Press Staff Correspondent.) ; NEW YORK, Jan. 15. It re quired fourteen tracks to handle the 4,000 men taking part In the Liberty Loan track and field meet at Camp Sheridan, Montgomery, Ala., Oct. 4, and athletics in that camp is car ried on in just such a manner in other branches. . For instance, Alabama being In the sunny belt, there was baseball all fall. A division championship series was played and 110 teams finished the season. The title was won by the 110th ammunition train. Felt ban ners were awarded to all regimental championship winners. Baseball has its troubles here, too, according to the division athletic director, for he mentioned to The United Frees the fact that several outlaw teams were in the field, aside from the regularly sanctioned league. Boxing shows are held as a regu lar part of the camp's athletic work. Joe liandot, several years ago a fam ous lightweight, has been assigned to this camp as boxing instructor. a - .9 v r n a v, . . : l ,l A LuiiDcuiu auu u i. m. v. l. utilis IF you desire to help the K of G War Funds leave your subscription at J.

The Norwoods of Cincinnati and the Cleveland American league club are among the high-class base ball teams that have been in action at the camp.

(Special.) General conditions for the week in North Portland market have been very satisfactory. The supply lias just about balanced (ho demand, and while the faco of the sales havo shown a little lower prices in somo sections than obtained in the pre vious week, the market quotations should be no lower, quality consid ered. As a matter of fact, quality considered, the market was probab ly a little higher. From the buyers view point the product of this week's 10 cent cattle cost moro than the product of the 10.50 cattle of the previous weok. Present conditions fn the market would Indicate and warrant an lie quotation for actual ly top finished steers. Common stuff nnd canners have barely held their own during the week, while the calf market has been very strong and continues to show signs of advance. Conditions In the hog market have shown some signs of weakening as the week advanced, with a decline of possibly 5 to 10c in the trading of the last two days of the week. The general quality of material offered, however, has not been as good this week ns during the previous week, and the cuts in prices in the hog market are somewhat like those in the cattle market on account of the quality and a change in' quotations would scarcely be warranted on this basis. Sheep prices have gone sharply upward during the week nnd the week's close has displayed a valley lamb market extending as high as 14.50, while prime Western lambs would change hands readily at 15.00 to 15.50, and a considerably larger volume could be handled at these prices, than haB been offered at any time during the past six weeks. The following prices are current in the different departments: CATTLE Med. to choice steers, 9.75-10.25; good to medium steorB, 8.60-9.50; common to good steers, 7.00-8.40; choice cow3 nnd heifers, 7.00-7.60; common to good cows nnd heifers, 5.75-7.00; canners, 3.00- 5.25: bulls, 4.50-6.75; calves, 7.00 10.00; Btockera and feeders,. 0.00 8.00. HOGS Prime light, 15. 45-15. fiO; prime heavy, 15.50-15.65; plg3, 13.50-14.50; bulk, 15.50. SHEEP Western lambs, 14.50 15.00; Valley lambp, 14.00-14.25; yearlings, 12.50-13.00; wethers, 12.00-12.50; ewes, 9.50-11.00.
