.er.iecE of Richmond as LIVE STOCK MARKET SHOWN IN STOCK YARDS REPORT

By WM. R. SANBORN. In view of the troublesome restrictions placed on the shipment of live tock, and especially the need for an outlet by hog raisers, who have less than a car load to market, the following story of sales at Olen Miller yards during the first nine market days in January, will be of surpassing Interest. It will not only interest the men who sold the hogs, but every business man in the county. Our business gentlemen, is all inter-related. - The stream of money tapped by the farmers mentioned herein has already begun flowing Into the banks and stores of this section. Every town has shared In the benefits of these sales, and every Merchant will ultimately profit by this distribution of currency of the realm. Payment of (70,462.48 Made. Tbe receipts of live stock in the first nine market days of this year and up to Saturday, Jan. 11. numbered 1,832 hogs, 47 head of cattle and 98 veal calves. The gross weight of all these was 448,330 pounds, or at least 25 heavy carloads. That is a whole lot of "meat on the hoof," isn't it? And it brought considerable money for instance $70,46248, to get down to the last copper cent. Men Who Got the Money Jesse Druley of Boston township, made the largest single delivery, bringing in 227 hogs that netted him $9,191.24. This lot was part of a bunch of 500 head fed by Mr. Druley. We are informed that the rest were shipped out to various markets on permits, but Mr. Druley stated on Saturday that his hogs sold to the Glen Miller yards netted him the most money per 100 pounds. Luther Flatley broke all former Tecords on a carload of . hogs. He

brought In 73 red hogs, that were rarrowed last March and April and which averaged 305 lbs. These sold at a premium of 25 cents over any bogs sold in Richmond so far this year. Mr. Flatley received a perfectly good check for $3,718.50 for these red porkers, the largest check ever given by Garr & Sherley, for that number of hegs. The wolf that might have been seen running like mad down the pike the other night fled from Mr. Flatley's door. That check wa3 calculated to discourage any old wolf, you know. Who Got the Rest of the Cash. As a matter of interesting information, we have been tempted to print the entire list of men who have divided Glen Miller stock yards hog money during the first few business days of this year. Well, we just can't resist that temptation, so here goes: Head Amount Jesse Druley 227 $9,191.24 Charles RIdenour 54 $1,662.37 Walter Lafuee 60 1.946.40 Oscar Rich 60 1.638.40 H.

CARLOADS OF MAIL TO SOLDIERS ARE HELD IN FRANCE

War Department is Blamed for Quantity of Undelivered Soldier Mail. WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. From eight to ten . carloads of mail for American soldiers are undelivered in France, Second Assistant PostmasterGeneral Otto Praeger told the senate postoffice committee today, and "thousands and probably millions" of letters addressed to the men overseas will arrive in New York soon to be sent to the dead letter office, where an attempt will be made to return them to the writers. Blame for the failure to deliver this mail was placed on the war department by Mr. Praeger, who again explained that the army authorities handle all soldiers' mail in France, the postoffice department delivering outgoing mail at Hoboken and receiving returning mail at the French ports. Mr. Praeger said one way to improve conditions overseas would be to send a force of experienced mail clerks to France to deliver the mail to the soldiers. Members of the committee sought to ascertain whether there was any delay at French ports in handling mail coming to this country. No Trouble at Ports. "The trouble does not lie at the ports," declared Mr. Praeger. "It lies in the interior. The mail gets tied up somewhere between army headquarters, censors and the ports." Mr. Praeger told the committee that one reason for the confusion in the delivery of mail to soldiers was the failure of the war department to keep up its index system. This same cause, he declared, also was responsible for the department's delay in sending out allotments to soldiers and In reporting casualties. Another source of delay in delivering mail promptly, he added, was the transferring of units of troops from one port to another, but he said this should cause only a few days' delay, as the mail could readily be forwarded to the moving troops. Mr. Praeger appeared before the committee to urge appropriations of $3,000,000 for the maintenance and development of the aerial mail service. Extension of the present air mail service between Washington and New York so as to connect Boston with Atlanta is planned, Mr. Praeger said. In addition it is also proposed to establish routes connecting New York and Omaha, via Chicago, and Boston with Detroit, through Albany and Buffalo. Establishment of these routes, he said would cost $2,034,000, while the revenues would total $2,050,125.

FIFTH-LOAN DRIVE TO START APRIL 6

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. Opening of the fifth liberty loan campaign April 6, the second anniversary of the declaration of war against Germany, is under consideration by Treasury officials, but no decision has been reached. The third liberty loan drive started on April 6, 1918, the first anniversary. It is planned to have the campaign run for three weeks and to ask for between $5,000,000,000 and $6,000,000,000. Whether the interest rate will be higher than the 4,4 per cent, borne by the last issues depends partly on the movement of the market 'price of liberty bonds during the next two months. The bonds will be of short maturity in the neighborhood of five

years.
