LIVE STOCK -MARKET Union Stock Yards, Toronto, Feb. 3. -Fro -whatever standpoint the situation was look at the live stock business at the yards th rimming was very unsatisfactory. The offe ing of close upon twenty-three hundred hea was extremely light for a Monday and ther was every reason to hope that there would b an improvement on the sluggish tone of las week. But it was not so. The pa,cking-hous laving revised their beef prices as a resu of last week's cheaper 'buying did' not oho any real evidence of wanting butcher cattl unless at their own prices. The outcome w that their repreeentatives operated vet sparingly and confined their attention chiefl to light butchers of fair quality. For any thing good sola values were a steady wit those of beet week, but for the common to znedium. steers and heifers prices general] were a trifle easier. Bulls also were a slo trade, but there was a fair demand for cow round steady prices. At the close numerous loads ,df cattle 'which included 'some good butchers were unsold. The stocker and feeder trade continue extremely dull. Milkers were wanted a steady prices but too few were forward to 1111 orders. The hog market was at least firm at $18.25 f. o, b. and 319.25 fed an,d watered, Packer buyers admitted having paid those prices, bu at the same time several drovers held ou for an additional 25 cents and at the close it looked as if they would •succeed. The receipts were 170 carloads with 2,273 cattle, 251 calves, 4.536 hogs, 503 sheep and lambs and 28 horses.

Every one should do what they can to supply the need by using fertil- izer. It -will not only help to supply the need but will return you hand- some profits. All fertilizers are strictly inspected by the Government and all grades must come up to the standard registered. The use of fertilizer is far past the experhnental stage, and by carefully selecting the brands that your land and crop re- quires, you are almost certain to get profitable returns. Good grades of fertilizer are cheaper than they were last spring; the poorer grades are much the same price. I will be pleased to have your order and will do the best I can to give you what will best suit your needs.
