A larger run of hogs and lighter demand from local packers, as well as eastern inquiry, due to light killings for Saturday and Monday, made it difficult for sellers to maintain prices today. Although the bulk of good bogs sold at sls, the same as yesterday, orders were filled within a short time and Indications were that the holdover would be large. The best grades were offered at sls later, but this had little effect in inducing purchases. Receipts were of desirable quality, as a whole. Pigs remained the same, receipts and demand about balancing. Cattle. Receipts, 700; market steady to strong. Better inquiry was in evidence for cattle, while receipts were about 100 head less than for yesetrday. The general market was practically undisturbed in the wav of prices, with the possible exception of a firming up In several grades. Trading was fairly active. Calves. A kern inquiry prevailed for calves, and prices were marked up 50cS$l further, with some stock changing hands at an advance of $2. Good demand for eastern shipment and smaller receipts were contributing factors, but the better quality of the stock offered also was an influence on the upward swing of the market. The run was taken quickly, and calves that might have been bought for 12<314 cents a pound last week, readily brought 15015% cents today. Good to choice calves brought sl3® 15.50 in the general run, but several sales were made of fancy stock as high as sl6. Sheep and Lamb*. Considerable activity marked trading In sheep and lambs, hut increased receipts were instrumental In forcing prices to give way-slightly.

GRAINS FOLLOW IRREGULAR PATH Month-End Evening Up Feature Futures Trading. CHICAGO, May 28. —With .the end of the month in signt there was much activity in May deliveries on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Sharp losses in cash grain markets opened the way for bear pressure in futures, and caused breaks from the hl£h marks of 9c in July coru and 6%c in the September and 6c in the May. The break in corn carried tho rest of the grain list and provisions off sharply. At the close Muy corn was 5c under yesterday’s finish, July off 4%®5%c and September 4%@4%c under. May oats closed %c lower, July 2%c down and September at a loss of lc. There w*as slight easing off in nil grains at the opening because of improved weather and transportation, but this was followed by a slight buying rush, which took July corn up Sc. buying movement was short lived, however, for heavy selling soon took July corn down 7c and other grains also were lower. At the bottom there developed the usual covering by shorts and the market became firm. Provisions ruled lower after opening a shade stronger and declined briskly under scattered selling induced by the weakness of the grains despite the higher market for hogs.

Belgium’s Amazing Progress
Belgium is an inspiring example of the quick recovery of a war-torn country. Commerce, industry, transportation, and finance—the foundations of a nation’s wealth—are being rapidly restored to-the normal. Belgium is at work. Belgium is producing. Her industries are, on an average, operating at about 75 per cent, of their pre-war fapa'city. Coal production is keeping pace with the restoration and expansion of her factories. Belgium’s commercial progress is remarkable. Her exports to Holland, France, Italy and Germany now surpass her imports. With England, she is approaching a balance of trade. By the end of 1920 it is expected that Belgium will have the advantage of a favorable trade balance.

Belgium is one of America’s best customers. She is already buying from us as much as before the war. Belgium’s railroads, destroyed by the war, have been practically reconstructed, and freight and passenger traffic are moving freely. The highly cultivated lands of Belgium are again producing their crop-quotas. Belgium is nearly on her feet financially. Under the Peace Treaty she has a prior claim of 2,500,000,000 francs on the German indemnity, This Company’s office in Brussels was established to be of the fullest possible service to both American and Belgian interests during the work of rehabilitation and in the greater activities of the future.
