° TORO1sITO, My 13th. -Export Eilattle-
Trade was rath r drill and prices were hard
to push up bec se 4 discouraging reports
from the old' c untry. A little liveliness
has been cense on the- Toronto market by
the demand for cattle to go to, France and
Belgium, but t. is source of export will be
supplied in a fe mere days, and then the
bottom will-dro right out of the _market.
Prices phid at tie western cattle yards to-
day were not hi h, ruling at from 3ac to 4c
'per lb for car lo da of good cattle. One or
; -
two lots of fan touched $4.25, $135 and
$4.40 *per cwt, but these were exceptional
deals. It may afely be sized up that best
export cattle are worth 4c per lb, only
something yen, choice going to $4.121 or
$4.20 per cwt. Export men do not want to
pay more than 4c per lb, and they want
some at-ic lets than that price. Plenty
cattle are comi g in to supply the general
demand. Bute ers' Cattle -This line was
demoralized. there is hardly any demand,
\too much stuff it coining in and a great deal
of it is not of e -tra choice quality. Prices
nuled to -day at rom 2ac to • per lb for
good cattle ,u to 3ac for extra choice.
These figure4h w a decline of about ;le per
lb since last eek. Bulls -Local dealers

Messrs. Isaac Usher & Son, • ,

' Gentlemen, -I have muclhpleasure in tes-
tifying to the excellence of your Queenston
Cement for building purposes. As you
know, I built a concrete basement, 50x80
feet, under my barn four years ago. With
the exception of one day's help I received
from -you in laying out walls, I completed
'the building with my ordinary farm help,
and I think my stables are the best in the
district. The walls are stronger ind drier
than either brick or stone, and were built at
about half the cost of either. As frost will
not penetrate the concrete, the air is always
pure and dry, and I can recommend it to all
-farmersSwho want first-class basements for

Yours truly,
