Compared with | same week last year, top $10.50, bulk « $7.75-8.75. All other classes killing stock steady. Calves steady, top vealers closing at $13.50. Hogs | steady but showing slightly weaker | tendency, top $9.00, bulk to butchers $8.50-8.75. Stockers and feeders , compared with week ago: feeders show a decided stronger tendency for the best grades, receipts show a | marked improvement in quality. The lightweight common kind were hard- | er than ever to sell, in fact they were practically unsalable. There was some activity in the movement of pretty good grades of feeders that had some weight and more inquiry than any week this year for feeders of good quality ranging from 800- 1000 1bs., but salesmen complained that prices that buyers wanted to pay wouldn't pay out on the basis of cost on the western markets. Local farmers whose practice invariably has been to not buy their supplies of good feeding cattle until they were ready to put them in the stables, wil! from now on be more in evidence among purchasers at the local yards and though they will buy as cheap | as they can in price, yet as a finality will take them even though the price be higher than they originally expect- | ed to pay . Salesmen all look for a | far better demand during the next | | six weeks for real good feeders.

MANY EMPLOYES NEEDED TO OPERATE BRITISH TELEPHONES Official reports show that In 1921 there were nearly 50,000 persons on the telephone staff of the British Post Office Department, which oper- ates the telephone system in Great Pritain. The total number of tele- phones was 911,000, giving a ratio of one employe to eighteen telephones. Corresponding figures for the whole Bell System throughout the United States show a ratlo of thirty-eight telephones to each employe, These figures indicate that the Brit- ish Post Office employs more than twice the number of people to do the same work as the telephone companies in this country. Read the Bulletin. It pays to advertise in the Bulletin | makes me all the fonder of my own “What's the use of building great highway systems, at an expense of millions and millions of dollars, when in a few short years all the freight and passenger traffic will be carried in the air?” The question is always being ask- ed by some one, usually some one who is unendowed by nature with faculty of thing straight, but some- times by those who think, but with- out data on which to go. The next ten, or the next hundred vears, will see enormous strides made in aviation. Mail, some ex- press, some passenger traffic will go via plane, and much sport and travel will use it. But no future develop- ment of aeronautics can overcome the fundamental fact of nature, that to raise a weight in the air and maintain it there, requires power, and that power is an equivalent for value; in our terms, money. . Therefore, no matter how desir- able otherwise, no system of trans- portation which requires an expendi- ture to support a weight, can com- pete in cheapness with those in which the weight is borne by the earth.

Harding, Pres. ident of the United States, thought as clearly and as logically upon the | great question of road construction and improvement as he did upon other public questions of far-reach. ing importance. Now that death has added emphasis to the words of wis- dom he uttered, it is well to recall his pronouncement in regard tc roads. In his first message to Con- gress, Mr. Harding said: “Transportation over the high- ways is little less important (refer- ring to the railways), but the prob- lems relate to construction and de- velopment, and deserve your most earnest attention, because we are laying a foundation for a long time to come, and the creation is very difficult to visualize in its great possibilities. “The highwavs are not only feed- ers to the railroads and afford re- lief from their local burdens, they are actually lines of motor traffic in interstate commerce, Theyare the | smaller arteries of the hicher por- | tion of our commerce, and the motor | an indispensible in- | political, social, and | car has become strument in our industrial life. “There i a new era highway construction, the outlay fo: | runs far into millions of dollars. | begun which hundreds of | Jond issues by | road districts, counties, and states | mount to enormous figures, and the | country such an outlay that it is vital that every effort shall | be directed aoainst wasted ort and unjustifiable expenditure. “The Federal Government ean place no inhibition on the expendi- | ture in the several states: but, | Congress has is facing since | embarked upon a policy | the states in highway | wisely. I believe, it! can assert a wholly becoming influ- | ence in shaping policy. | “With the principle of Federal | participation acceptably established probably never to be abandoned, it is important to exert Federal influ- ence in developing comprehensive plans looking to the promotion of commerce and apply our expenditure in the surest way to guarantee a public return for money expended.” of assisting improvement, MIXED IN HIS METAPHORS Of Course Brown Fully Understood What He Meant to Say, but He Blundeared.
