Markets

GllALN PRICES (Markets by Lamson Bros- & Co., 212 Union National B&ar EoiMlng) CHICAGO, 111., Nov. 21 All grains met a good class of buying on an early dip and soon reversed their trend. The close was a sharp gain, with wheat leading and rye following closely. There was some export business on yesterday's break In wheat and corn and inquiry was reported also for oats which, it Is believed, resulted In some sales. While Liverpool cables showed some reactionary tendency, sterling was higher. Duluth was reported as buying spring wheat in Minneapolis for shipment east. Rest ing orders in corn absorbed the early liquidation and local selling, a sharp reaction followed. There was a good demand in the spot market and it is believed that some export business was put through. Oats showed a firm undertone and although trade w lightfirm undertone and although trade was light there was little pressure when the market turned. The rapidity of today's recovery goes far toward consideing the trade that the general advance is not yet over. Despite the continued heavy run of hogs, provisions were steady with a scattered Investment demand.

TO chest but a bundle of time sheets, books and papers in his inside coat pocket deflected the shot so that it just bruised his body under the right arm. Tragedy Premeditated The tragedy in his home seemed to have been premeditated. An exami nation of the body of Mrs. Flerro showed she had been dead about ten or twelve hours. The police theory is that he had murdered her lasj; night, evidently after she had undressed for the night Some time early, in the morning, Fierro entered the room of his daughter, strangled her as she was sleeping, and carried the body into his wife s room where he raised the arm of Mrs. Fierro and placed the dead child In it The child's clothing were found hanging neatly on hooks In her room. The condition of the rooms showed that Mrs. Fierro was a neat and clean housekeeper. Neighbors said she bore an excellent reputation and was highly regarded. The police have no knowledge of domestic troubles in the family. Some said that Fierro was a "bad man." Terrorized Village. About nineteen years ago, Fierro took offense at an order of the chief of police of Bisaccio. He terrorized the entire village for days, and finally shot and killed the chief. Italians said he escaped on the plea of insanity. He and his family came to America three years ago and have lived in Richmond for some time. No clues were found in the home. The picture page of an Italian newspaper was lying on a table in the living room, and long butcher knife was found in the kitchen. Coroner Bond found cartridges for a revolver in the house, and a number of memorandum books which, however, contained nothing that would indicate the motive for the strangling of his family and the shooting of the Pennsylvania crew. There was no fire in the stoves and little food was discovered. Bread crumbs covered the table in the living room. He was dressed in a blue serge suit and wore a khaki shirt He was about 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighed about 155 pounds. Notify Police. Police authorities in surrounding towns and cities were notified of the killing and furnished with descriptions of Fierro. The bodies of his wife and daughter were found by Motorcycle Officer Hennigar and Brandon Griffis, who went to the house after it had been report ed to police headquarters that Fierro had told the section crew that he had murdered his family. Later in the morning a report reach ed police headquarters that Fierro had been seen in Rich's woods. The woods were searched without avail. Fierro had been worrying about debts incurred to sustain his family, it was said at police headquarters. He owed a large grocery bill and also was indebted for furniture, owing to his long idleness. It, was reported that Fierro had threatened to kill Frank Castellucio, owner of a grocery store near his residence, and several others against whom he hai bored a grudge. Ten in Crew. The crew of the handcar which was assaulted in the affray, numbering ten men in charge of Mr. Henderson, started for a point on the LogansportChicago branch of the Richmond division about five miles norihwest of the city about 7 o'clock Tuesday morning. The attack started when the car had traversed little more than two miles of track and at about 7; 30 o'clock. The point on the road where the murder was enacted is clear on the south side and wooded on the north side. A deep heavy growth is found there. It was from these weeds that the killer emerged with shotgun leveled at the occupants of the handcar. The first shot was fired at close range into the midst of the men on the platform of the car striking Charles Hagan in the upper left side of his body The charge struck him squarely in the region of the heart but a large thick watch which he carried in his breast pocket saved his life. The scattered shot of the charge lacerated the upper left side of his body but it is thought that he has suffered no serious injury. "When the first shot was fired, the remainder of the crew of the car scattered and ran, the killer making straight for the foreman of the gang, who was instantly killed when the second shot was fired. Fierro then fired another shot at his victim and a part of this shot struck and injured Grant Perkins, a member of the gang, the shot striking him in the forearm. Fires More Shots. The murderer is said to have fired two or three shot3 into the body of the slain man after the first shot took effect and several shots after the flee ing members of the section gang. Sev en shots in all were fired. William H. Gregg, a farmer who was in a field a short distance from the shooting heard the shots and thought the crew had stopped to bag a stray squirrel. When he arrived at the scene of the killing, he found the body of Hagan on the platform of the hand-car and brought him to the city in his car and took him to Reid Me morial hospital. The body of the slain man and Perkins, who was injured, were brought back to the local yards by an outbound freight train which left for points on this branch about the time of the attack. The killed and injured men were put on the train and the train backed into the station. Perkins was Immediately taken to Reid Memorial hospital upon his arrival at the local station. One of the members of the crew who fled at the first shot succeeded in reaching a telephone and informing the police of the affair and shortly afterwards the woods and fields were being combed by members of the city police force armed with high-powered

WE'LL: CO "WITH TH CUX-HE IMU-bT BE taOME TrVOT body: The Farm and By William R. THE PACKING MERGER On stepping into a store on Monday morning we overheard two men discussing the proposed Armour-Morris merger. One man took the ground that the merger might prove of public benefit; might lower the cost of doing business and cut the price of meats. To this the other objected. It was against public policy to reduce or elim inate competition, ne saia. am u. these two are allowed to combine, what Is to prevent all the leaders in the trade getting together finally, in one gigantic pool, leaving the smallt concerns alone to compete in me dujing of live stock and supplying the public with meats. ' To this the first man said ne Believed that in so far as price fixing is concerned the big five have a private understanding with each other, have had for a long time, and that the merger would really make no material difference in conditions . Neither of these men are Interested in stock raising, nor in the marketing of meats. This conversation on the date of the opening of congress goes to show that the public are alive to the possibilities of a great combination to do the bulk of the packing business of the nation, as well as the supplying of fresh meats to the majority of the people of our entire country. A Government prociem. While it is true that the stockyards law gives the government important sunervisorv powers, wmcn wouia re main in effect, still, these regulations have no effect upon prices made throueh competitive bidding for live stock, nor for patronage in the selling of the fresh or cured products. Nor would they in case of merged concerns or of one giant pool. This wnoie mat ter will doubtless be threshed out at Washington, not merely by the federal commerce commission and ty tne oenartment of agriculture, but by the ad ministration, and most likely, also, by the congress, or by numerous members whose opinions will have weight. The leading egg buyers advanced fresh receipts to 50 cents per dozen and the creamery trade marked butter up to 50 cents in a wholesale way, on opening their doors on Monday morning. , Cattle Feeder's Day. The annual fall meeting of the Indiana Cattle Feeders' association will be held at Purdue, on Friday of this week. The experimental herds to be fed out by the college will be inspected and there will be brief talks by some of the Purdue staff and addresses by a few noted cattle feeders. At 10:30 a. m. President Rainey McCoy, of Lafayette, will deliver a short address, to be followed by one of welcome by Prof. Christie, after which F. G. King will give an "outline of the cattle experiment" M. H. Overton will give a report of the cost of cattle production in 1922, after which lunch will be served in the pavilion. Officers will be elected immediately after rifles, members of the Pennsylvania police force and the sheriff. Neighboring farmers loaded their shot-guns and aided in the search. Eludes Police. Nothing is known as to whether Fierro rode or walked to the scene of the disaster and whether or not he had any means of escape. A bicycle was seen standing against a telephone pole shortly after the shooting occurred and had not been moved some hours afterward. A report late in the day said Fierro had been seen northeast of the city. He is about 35 years old. Mr. Hagan lived at 1804 North F street and Mr. Perkins at 618 South A street. Reports from the nospitai say that both will recover. It was said that Fierro nao servea in the American army during the war, but this could not be verified. Two crews were in the party, one in charge of Mr. Henderson, the other in charge of Mr. Perkins. Other mem bers of the crew were S. biio, r . ttarido, D. Silo, G. Apparso, R. H. Leax. W. D. Hickman. M. Peluiio, u. uiomisio, F. Castellucio, C. E. Weezie, E. Z. Rigan, H. A. Leax, W. Dubble and Sherman Grav. Fierro had a Winchester .12-guage pump gun, which neighbors said Delonged to him. Mrs. William Henderson was overcome with grief when she heard of the tragedy. Mr. Henderson was 58 years old and besides his widow is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Granville Harris and Miss Mamie Henderson. They reside at 100 North Nineteenth street. f One witness said that Fierro was looking for another man who was a member of the crew, but was unable to identify him, as he covered his head with hi3 coat and turned his back.

OVrS CHINA-, u Copyright 1922. by the Farmer Sanborn lunch, following which Kay Wood, of Chicago, will discuss economic factors affecting cattle feeding. Dean J. H. Skinner will deliver the closing remarks. A postal card received from the producers' association gives the number of cars handled last at 242, wheh ranks the association in the lead of all others In that market Their nearest competitor received 93 cars. In the above estimate of 242 cars, it was shown that 90 carloads came in by truck, on the basis of 70 head to the car load. The same allowance was made to all of the 18 competing firms, and in showing the total cars of hogs received during the week, which was 1,141 carloads. The producers handled 21 per cent of the total receipts for the week. Of these, 792 cars came in by rail and 349 cars were accred ited to the truck division. A Big Potato Crop The production of potatoes in Illinois this year is given a 8,870,000 bushels, or 2,400,000 more than in 1921. In butter making on the farm" says a dairy expert, "the common fault is to overwork it. Overworked, butter is dull and grassy in appearance." To this a famous maker of country butter rises to remark that "too many farm women do not work their butter enough to get the water all out it, let alone overdoing the job. Between two extremes lies the happy medium. One thing is certain. First class coun try butter makers find a market at top prices for all the butter they can spare, while there are many whose butter al most goes a begging at the stores. The Netherlands was the largest market, except Canada, for American corn In 1921, having received 17.84J, 464 bushels, according to the depart ment of agriculture. The next larg est markets, in order of receipts, were United Kingdom, Germany, and Mex ico. Almost Incredible. It reads like an incredible statement and especially at this late date, but we find the following in the current num ber of Capper's Weekly: "What the car shortage - is doing for farmers Is shown at Keighley, a little town in Kansas, which has not seen a grain car in two months. Milton, another town, has had two cars in eight weeks. Sylvia has received only one car in 50 days and shipped only 15 cars of the big wheat crop since July 1. Haverhill has not had a car in 30 days. Elevators are overflowing and farmers are unable to dispose of their grain." When Buying Mill Feeds. "To determine if you are paying too much for mill feeds," says C. C. Wheeler, of the department of agriculture, "requires a knowledge of how feeds are sold by the mills, market conditions, quality of the product, and the right methods of purchasing. Wheat feeds alone represented a value of approximately $200,000,000 in 1920 but little is known by the average buyer about the marketing of this commodity." Mr. Wheeler has made a careful study of the marketing of mill feeds, according to advices from the department, and has told a story of interest in Farmers Bulletin, No. 1124, which is sent free on request to the department of agriculture. This bulletin should especially Interest dairy men and feeders, who feuy in a large way. Cattle Feeding Outlook. "Most cattle feeders have been'making good money since the first of February," says the editor of Wallaces' Farmer, in an article relating more particularly to Iowa conditions. He continues by saying that "during the past two months, well finished cattle have been selling higher than any one thought they would. Business conditions have been improving right along and labor Is going to be fully employed at high wages this winter." All of this is optimistic, but he modifies his colorings as follows: "The situation favors a continuation of high prices for beef cattle were it not for the fact that so many cattle are now on feed.

PltNCHEOFOR? ft Mips lot! Fotura Swrio, Inc. into the corn belt During the past nine months, government figures Indi cate that about 600,000 cattle had been sent out into Iowa as compared with about 320,000 for the same nine months a year ago, and 340,000 two years ago. For the seven corn Btates, the figures are 2,000,000 feeder cattle shipped out as compared with 1,300,000 a year ago, and 1,380,000 two years ago. Of course, there were rather small numbers on feed both In 1921 and 1920, but the fact remains that we have a rather large number of feeding cattle in the country. "It probably would have been a good thing If there had been a central bu reau of Information to tell the cattle feeders, week by week, how the situ ation was coming on. With the situation as it now is, however, the only thing that can be done la to try to figure out how to get these cattle back to market with the maximum of profit We have no very definite convictions' on this matter, but it wonld seem the part of wisdom in those sections where com Is going to be Belling over 60 cents a bushel this winter, to send the cattle back to market In the near fu ture, or better yet to rough them through the winter with the Idea of putting them on pasture in 1923. It la unfortunate that these is no organiza tion existing which can direct its efforts to avoid the putting of too much corn into fat cattle during the next five months."
