If 60 car loads had reached the mar ket today they would have been ab sorbed readily and without affect ing prices In the least. All offer ings were sent over the scales promptly at the top end o the quo tations In the various classes and trading In general shows a very act ive aspect. The cattle department has been especially active, with no change in quotations and practically everything selling at the top end of the class. The offerings In the hog depart ment showed a very poor quality to day, with prices holding just steady with those prevailing In the previous quotations. Hogs could easily be good enough to bring 16 cents, al though the hulk of tlio sales today were at 15.50 on poorly finished stuff. Nothing of any considerable vol ume was offered in the sheep de partment. 'Most of the lambs, in cluding the very small Ehlpment, changed hands at 14.50, which is 25c above the previous quotations for Valley lambs, and n considerable consignment, of breeding owes . iLCiTOUISVJLATEl LEMONS Choice, dozen 36 BAKING POWDER 50c size ,any kind 45c?

The big league champions are going to have toilsome opposition next summer. Draft or no draft, war or no war, things stack up with fully as much gusto in the way of baseball opposi tion in the big circuits as they did a year ago. As a mntter of cold allur ing fact, the grind looks to he closer in 1918 than in 1917 in the National league. Charles Wecghman is the direct cause of trouble for the Giants in the distance. His scattering of checks for various amounts in huge gobs over the surface of the country has pro duced a creditable array of talent in Chicago, and it must not be thought for even a brief, fleeting while that Fred Mitchell won't hnve something to say about who's who in the first division of the National league next fall. The Cubs, Cardinals and Reds may be relied upon to gum up the works for John lloGraw from; now hence forth. If John McGraw" squeezes by to another National league pennant, it will be by the brief margin of f. hair. A change of managers nt St. Louis is going to have a lot of effect on the Cardinals. And it will not bo a bad effect, for there isn't a big league manager in the business who knows more about getting a lot of baseball out of a team than Jack Hendricks. The team will lose none of its ability through the loss of a manager expe rienced in big league tactics. And Hendricks is a noted developer of pitchers. The team will be up there fighting as of yore. - A great deal cannot ho said of the Reds at first glance, for things arc rather disorganized within the Cincin nati club. Fred Toney probably will not be among those present when the. Reds again hike for the happy train ing grounds. His loss will be a de cided blow to the Cincinnati pennant hopes, for Toney is one of the best pitchers in the country. He is cap able of winning thirty game3 in a season. In young Gerner, Christy Mathewson may have a man who will partially replace drafted Fred. Dan Howlcy, who had charge of the young southpaw last summer, declares Ger ner the best find in years. Russell Blackburn will be a more valuable man at second base than was Dave Shean. Oh, my, yes. the fight i3 going to De interesting plenty.

Practically 1000 miles will be travellr-d and It will take ten days to play all the games scheduled. As this Is the be ginning nf the second semester, the members of the team have made ar rangements whereby all elapses missed will bo made up on their re turn. o Was Feeling All I;nn Oeivn. Symptoms of on-romng kidney trouble deserve prompt attention, for neglect Invites serious illness. Louis Iluckner, Somerset, Va., writes: "I was feeling all run down; tired, with pains In my hack. After tak ing Foley Kidney Pills I felt like a new man." Backache, rheumatic pains, stiff joints, sore muscles, swollen ankles, puffinesn under eyes, and Bleep-disturbing bladder ail ments quickly yield to this timo-trled remedy.
