MILD WEATHER HAS
AN EFFECT ON EGGS
"Egg receipts are. continually
Increasing and prices drop off a
cent every day or so. It is likely 4
that with continued mild weath-
er prices will further decline, as 4
production will be large.
''Butter Is unchanged and 4
while in largo supply 1. clean- 4
4 lng up nicely. 4
"Poultry arrivals have not
been large during the week, but 4
4 demand also has been rather 4
4 light. ' Fin. hens and large, 4
straight springers have moved 4
off nicely, tand broilers and fry- 4
4 ers are In very firm demand. 4
S Ducks sell pretty well, but 4
4 geese are very poor sellers. 4
4 Live turkeys are not wanted at 4
4 all,' but fine dressed goods of 4
4 this sort are In demand at 17c 4
4 to, 19c. There has been a larger 4
4 proportion of podr stock mar- 4
4 keted than there should be. and 4
4 the trade hopes that shippers 4
4 will keep poor birds until they 4
4 are fit they are not wanted on 4
4 this market at any price. I look 4
4 for a steady demand for good 4
4 hens and straight springers ths 4
4 coming week. 4

Fordand Union Stockyards, Feb. 21. -Wlills
a good bunch of hogs showed up
In the yards during the 24 hours, the
market retained a good tone. There was
a good buying demand all through the
day, killers seemingly being willing to
f ay on a basis of present values. This
s the time of the year when hogs us
ually show a good tone on the coast
and this season Is proving no exception
to the general rule.
Ths future of the coast hog market Is
very much in doubt. Much, If not all
will depend upon the attitude of tho
eastern markets. The price here I.
clo.e to a par with the enst freleht
and other charge, being considered and
riuciuaiion. mere wiu oe eageny
scanned by the killers.
Cattle Frloe Hard to Move.
Although receipts of cattle have been
quite small recently the market Is not
snowing any crrecr as rar as tne prico
Is concerned. Killers say they are un
able to pay more for cattle as long as
the present competition In the dressed
meat market continues.
No sheep arrived In the yards during
the 84 hours snd that line Is quoted
nominally at former figures.
A year ago today all lines were firm
at unchanged values.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Evening Up of Accounts Causes
Early Gain In Values Today.
New York. Feb. 21. Evening up of
short accounts over the holiday caused
a generally firm tone this morning: In
the stock market and forced an early
advance In prices. Profit taking of
longs resulted in some losses later in
the trading. The bank statement was
Issued at noon today because of Wash

which all exchanges will be closed. The
showing of the banks was quite as ex
pected. Call loans ruled the same as

WEATHER REPORT
The north Pacific high pressure area
is now central over the northern Rocky
mountain states and the west gulf high
pressure area has lost Its Identity. A
low pressure area, apparently of little
energy. Is central north of Lake Huron,
and the barometer is relatively low over
southern Arizona. This distribution of
pressure has caused fair weather in the
north Pacific states, with temperatures
generally slightly below normal. In
California the weather Is unsettled and
light rain has fallen at scattered places
In the southern portion of the state.
East of the Rocky mountains, fair
weather generally prevails, except in
the lake region, where In a few locali
ties, light snow has tallen. It is much
warmer In the Mississippi valley, and
ohlnook conditions prevail In north cen
tral Montana and Alberta. It Is colder
In New England and the middle Atlan
tic states. .
The indications are for fair weather
In this district tonight and Saturday,
