the Livestock Reporter anys:
Around it)o head of cattle were on tna
market thla morning from th Willamette
valley. hellere have round it easy going,
and buyera did not heiltate Ion tn giving
a good, strong bid on everything here. De
mand for the cheaper grades has been very
cood all week, due to the let-up in the num
ber of the typa comlnR for the past fort
night. While the better cmds of cattle
found the going a little hard during th early
market Monday a late demand developed
and th market cloaed fully steady on these
kind, which looked due for a reaction.
"Ther were no prime atevra included In
the dav'a receipt a. althouich the market la
on a atrong 11c basis for thne kinds. A
very aood rrad of beef Fleers is selling
around 110.50 and from this down to lOc
for a fair grade of killers. Half-fit and
good offarade killers are selMnr between f i
and $. 73. with the more common types
and cutters as low as 7c. The choice aradts
of beef rows and heifrra are a: Ml finding an
excellent demand at steady to hltcher prices.
A little lesa than a lot crossed the scales at
the lrtc mark this morning. The bulk of the
atrlr!y good cows are selling from 11 up
with a few sutes befna; inude at ... while
a pretty good grade is selling around fb.OO
and from tuat down to 9 rent.t.
"A fairly good-sixed mtd-wek supply of
hoes w -s on th nmrkvt t his mo mm g
about 6H head. Pract lea My erythtng from
vally points. Demand continues good and
the market Is on a steady to strong basis.
Heat local and vally hogs sold as high as
$il.a, with the bulk of s.iles ranging from
ltt 2A to lift 4l. Just what a Ind of fancy
hogs a it h di versions si e wor. h a ould be
hard to say. Pigs are still in good demand
at atady prlcta. Strictiy gin-d fit pis hod
no trouble In getting a $14." bid.

CHICAGO. Feb. fl. Material npturna In
th value of grain has been brought about
thla week largely through the sinking of the
Tuscan la and by the sc-antlne of Immediate
supplies. Compared with a week ago, corn
t.iis morning wss to He higher aud oata
lo to lc. Provision were almost exactly
unchanged.
Een before th rlnklng of the Tuscanta,
the breakdown or bearish confidence In re
gard to tho likelihood of peace bad formed
a noticeable factor iu the corn trade. Deal
rs who h ad looked for b I g remj Its f rom
German economical and political troubles
were compelled to admit that optimism had
been misleading and there wan no disposi
tion in any quarter to opio , the view
that t.ie loa of American soldiers on the
Tuscanta would, beyond doubt, tend to pro
long th war. Under nuch circumstances
and with actual new arrivals of corn here
the smallest In a lung time, prices had a
decided upward slant, but yeaterday the
bulla were sharply checked by a new priority
order giving the grain the right of way
over most other freight west or cnicago.
Unusual acantlnem of offerings did a good
deal to aid .in t-ie holbting of the oats
market.
Enlarged receipts of hog wiped out tem
porary advances In provisions.

At first the 'corn market had an upward
bend,, owinc to report that the condition
of much immature soft corn was getting
worse as a result of dampness and unseason
able warmth. Just before the close, definite
notice from the raiiroans was said to have
been .given the state inspection officials
here that enlarged arrivals should be pre
pared for.

and then underwent a sag. Business was
almost entirely local and price changes
were governed largely by varying opinions
regarding the outlook for supplies here.

due to conservation regulations and the
acute fuel conditions.
Industrial ahares were again handicapped
bv existing federal restrictions, although
m'llder weather effected some recovery from
the extreme depression and reduced produc
tive capacity of the early days of the week-
A large proportion of the daily trading
embraced issues properly designated as spe
cialties. Shippings, motors, oils and railroad
equipments of the more obscure variety
made variable gains, but public interest
was lacking, except in the first named,
whose potential value Is receiving wider
recognition. ,
Hardening of money was expected to re
sult from the Treasury Department's pro
posed financing, but short time loans eased.
, The bond market was apathetic. Foreign
war flotations reacted with jiomestlc issues.
