February le —Due solely to another record light ship- ment for a Monday's market, following three weeks of continued sparse offerings, values of t u -her cattle advanced 26 to 50 cents this • ning. Notwithstanding the stronger tone the reasket could not by any stretch of im- agination be described as active. After the meagre twine of receut weeks buyers lied to open ma, to some extent and the better grades of Lutchers forming their chief de- mand, a slight competition was responsible for -the raiee. Had another thousand head ef cattle been forward the market would in all -probahility have held steady. The larger ad- vance of this morning affected choice cattle and while one lot ''of choice steers sold at 14 cents, and two heavy steers at 1414 cents the top price tot a load was, $13.75. Other small loads of steers cashed in from 1113 to $13.50. while top butchers sold from eound $12 to 112.0. Medium and fair quality 'killers were 25 cents stronger than last week while the common butchers were little better than firm Cows wer4 a fair trade at steady to strong values but bulls continue,d slow though steady. s While packer -buyers bid $17.25 f. o. b. mind $18.25 fed and watered for a light con- signment of hogs, several drover* sold to outsiders at $18.60 fed and watered, and in one case at least $18.75 was paid. Lambs were stronger, good quality selling from 819 to $20, and a few extra choice lambs at 120.50 and. $20.75.Calves and light sheep were steady- and a fair , trade. Heavy sheep continued very draggy. • Dunn and Levack sold: Butchers -5. 1.100 Ms. 111.75; 7, 1,010 lbs. 111.75; 10, 870 Tbs. 110.50; 6, 880 tbs. 111.25; 11, 810 tbs. 110.50; 1. 990 lbs. 111; 1, 1,200 lbs. 112; 6, 580 Tbs. $8; 10, 860 tbs. $11-; 1. 1.080 Thai -$11.

An Officer in uniform steps for- ward, and holds a quiet con- versation with the magis- trate and other court officials. The story is simple and oft re- peated. Just a lad—in this case from N—. Git into fast Company. Gambled; took money from employers. Hop- ed to win and pay it back. Found out—arrested and jailed. Of course he's •sorry --but the Officer has sized him up. Be- lieves he has the stuff to make a man of. Knows that a jail sentence may only harden hinisa-nd start him to- ward continued criininality. The Officer in uniform was the Salvation Army Probationer. By manly counsel, supervision and prayer he enables the lad to regain. control of himself and get another start, free from the stigma of a prison sentence. If someone you lutow makes a false step- don't judge them • harshly. "There is so much good —" you know. 308 SERVICE POSTS IN THIS TERRITORY. USE THEM!
