TOP ON HOGS IS $4 UNDER HIGH MARK OF $23.50

All Live Stock is Down Reaction Expected for This Week.

News Dispatches From Surrounding Communities

BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN The top quotation on hogs at Indianapolis last week was $4 under the record price, $23.50, made a short time ago. The closing sales on Saturday of good hogs of 160 pounds and up at $19.50, was the lowest for that grade since March 10th, on which day $19.40 was the top of the day. The Saturday decline was unexpected, but the large run for the closing day of the week, 4.500 head, and the demoralised condition at the central markets all of last week, resulted in a drop of 50 cents, where a small advance over Friday's figures had been anticipated. The fact that local killers would have to hold stock over until Tuesday

was also a factor. The general feeling

vw that a reaction to higher levels

is due for this week. The bulk of

sows handled went at $14.50 to $15

As to cattle, conditions were equally

unsatisfactory, to shippers. The de

cline for the week ranged at from

76 cents to $3, according to class and Quality of steers and sows. At a decline of 60 cents to $1 for the best, on Saturday, veal calves were $1 to $2 lower than In the early part of the week. Common to medium veals suffered a much greater decline. The Break at Chicago The low point on hogs was reached in Chicago on Friday, and the Saturday reaction was unexpectedly broad. The outside buyers were chiefly responsible for this, as but three small Chicago concerns were doing bidding during the day. Yard speculators and ' representatives of eastern killers believed Saturday to be bargain day in the pens, and their action advanced prioes accordingly. Fatorday'B average on hogs was $1.26 higher than on Friday, but at that was still $2.20 below that of Monday. The week's average price at $18.70 was SO cents under the previous week, and in indeed, was 30 cents under that ruling for the same dates in 1918. The Chicago market is open today though the packing houses are closed because of Labor Day observances. Cattle closed at the bottom of the week at Chicago and at other western markets, and the same Is true of Indianapolis. The average price for the week In Chicago, $15.90, was but a shade under that ruling the week be

fore, and but 6 cents below that for the corresponding week in 1918, which was $16. Lambs averaged $1.15 lower fro the week at $16.20. Receipts at Glen Miller. The receipts at Glen Miller stock yards during the past week were: 174 hogs; 425 sheep and lambs; 47 veal calves and 61 head of cattle. The break in hogs early in the week afiected receipts materially, for though many were offered at a price no one knew how to buy, with the market breaking 50 cents to $1 per day. As Rome Shurley truthfully said: It did not matter how they were bought, the buyer was sure to lose money in getting them on the market." The hogs taken in at the Glen on Saturday

SANE THINKING IS NEEDED BY WORLD, SAYS REV- WHITMAN

"The challenge to America is that we shall save what we have gained out of the war," said the Rev. Charles W. Whitman, of Seymour, Ind., in his lecture-sermon, "The Challenge of the Twentieth Century," delivered Sunday evening as the closing address of the Chautauqua season. The Rev. Mr. Whitman is pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal church in Seymour, and was for Ave years in charge of a pastorate in Liberty, where he became well known throughout this part of the state. Thic was his sixth appearance on the local Chautauqua stage. "The year 1914 marked a new date date line separating the old era from the new as much as Calvary set the Roman empire off from the Christian era," said he. "The challenge given us in this new era is that we shall save that which we gained out of the war by saving America, and that by so doing we shall be the center of the work of saving the world. "Now is the time for sane thinkers and sane leaders! We have capital

and labor troubles and more than anything else do we need sane deliberation on the part of our people. If we do not have that we will be overrun by the Bolsheviki. We must keep our heads and not be overrun by every new idea that pops up." Foresees Pan-America The speaker said the United States should become a big brother to Mexi

co .and the South American countries

so that not many years off we may have a great Pan-America.

"Then if there ever comes a time when the League of Nations fails we

shall have two continents standing to

gether on the right side. I do not think that Japan is coming over here to cause trouble, but if the League of

Nations should break she might.

We had as our guest last week a man recently returned from Japan, and he told us the ship building plants

were busy night and day, not making

alone mercantile vessels either."

Regarding the 1. W. W., the negro

question and other tendencies of the times, the speaker said he believed

a majority of the people of this country were sound through and through and that we need not fear from these directions.

STATEMENT

Our Ready-to-Wear Department has prepared for your Fall and Winter needs ln a most elaborate fashion this season. Never before have we shown at this early date such a wide variety of garments at prices so unusually low considering the advancing prices of good garments. Early in the summer we anticipated advances in the wholesale costs of all good garments. Those advances have ccme to an even greater degree than we had anticipated We purchased at an early date unusually heavy and most advantageously, so that even at our regular prices we can offer values that we could not do had we waited. In addition to these savings which our store policy insists on us passing on to our customers, we have inaugurated an early selling campaign in which we are willing to sacrifice profits in order to stimulate EARLY BUYING and offer a discount of 20 percent until September 6th. We offer the further advantage in that it is not necessary that you pay for the garment at once, but we will lay the garment you select aside for you upon payment of a satisfactory deposit. WE POSITIVELY GUARANTEE THAT IF YOU BUY A COAT OR A FUR GARMENT HERE THIS WEEK YOU WILL SAVE 20 PERCENT. BESIDES AFFORDING YOU THE SATISFACTION' Op A TULL SEASON'S WEARING.
