BUTCHERING NOW ON THE INCREASE TIME IS FAVORABLE FOR BULLINQ AND FARMERS NOW AT IT. FEWER CATTLE WERE KILLED Than Ever Before in Wayne Connty j Meat Dealers Buy Stock and Thoroughly Utilize It. Farmers are taking advantage of the cold weather and snow to complete the butchering of hogs and cattle for their own use and hundreds of them are being killed each day this week in Wayne County. On account of the warm weather, there has r.ot been so favorable an opportunity to "kill" before this winter and now they are taking advantage of the cold wave to the fullest extent. On account of the high price of pork, farmers are receiving more for their hogs and many are selling those which they will not butcher for themselves. Fresh pork and country sausnge are advancing in price, too, and two and one-half cents has been added to pork meat. Lard is liable to advance at any time as the summer supply will soon be rendered and prices will probably advance a cent or more on the pound. Fewer cattle are being killed this year in Wayne County than ever before on account of the cheap beef that can be secured from the meat markets. There is a great deal of waste in cattle, unless the hide, hoofs and other parts not consumed hy the farmer's family are sold, and this is seldom done. When meat dealers buy cattle, every part is utilized and many dollars saved. LOCAL MARKETS COUNTRY PRODUCE. . (Paid by the Bee Hive Grocery.) Batter. Creamery, 23c to 27c Country. 15c to 20c Eggs.

CHICAGO MARKETS

Commission Houses Buy and Pit Traders Sell Keeping the Wheat Market Steady; Fair Demand For Corn. Chicago, February 6. The wheat market was steady here at the opening. Commission houses were moderate bidders and pit traders sold quite freely. Some reports of damage were received from the Southwest, where the weather is still cold, but a prediction of rising temperature offset these reports. May opened unchanged to V&c, and for a time held within the opening range. Liberal Corn Receipts. Liberal receipts created some bearish sentiment in the corn pit, but prices held steady because of a fair demand by commission houses May opened unchanged to a shade lower, and during the early trading held within these figures. The oats market was about steady in sympathy with other grain. May opened unchanged to a shade lower, sold at 30c, and then rallied to 303830y2c. Profit-taking by small holders, resulting from a 5c decline in the price of live hogs caused moderate weakness in provisions at the opening. Chicago Grain and Provisions. (Furnished by 0. G.

THE MuSNING PALLADIUM WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 7. 1906.

INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS Hog Receipts Larger; Prices Held Steady but Tendency Seems Toward Lower Level: Cattle Fairly Active. Indianapolis, Ind., February 6. Receipts, 7,500 hogs, 1,300 cattle and 100 sheep, against 6,375 hogs, 9S4 cattle and 40 sheep a week ago, and 8,759 hogs, 103 cattle and 93 sheep a year ago. Receipts of hogs were a little larger than they have been recently, but with all buyers in the field and fair competition buyers and shippers, the early market was active at steady ! prices compared with yesterdaj I When shipping orders had been well ' completed, packers tried to break prices by withdrawing from the market, but late orders arrived for shippers, and there was an outlet for all the supply. In some cases late sales were 2io(a5c lower. Other markets are expecting liberal receipts tomorrow, and the tendency seemed to be toward a slightly lower level. One class of hogs is now selling about as high as another, as indicated by the fact that the bulk of the sales were at $5.90(a 5.95. Cattle Receipts Not Large. Receipts of cattle were not large for Tuesday, but the demand was not as strong as it has been recently, and the market was only fairly active at prices weak to 10c lower, with probably most transactions showing some decline. The demand was especially slow for good heavy steers, and they were the last to sell. The market for stockers and feeding cattle was apparently about steady and bulls did not show much change from yesterday, but calves were generally 25c lower. Few Sheep and Lambs. Receipts of sheep and lambs continue too small to establish a range in prices. In sympathy with reports from other places the market was generally lower, about 25c compared with the close of last week. There were no lambs here good enough to bring over $7.00 and most of the supply sold at $6.75. The best sheep here, which Avere not top kinds, sold at $4.50 and culls as low as $3.00. Cattle.
