(f course the buyers had to be stockmen, stock-men, fur what cmi.d any other man do with a lot of young: heifers? But the bidders bid-ders were soon much more interested in s-emg- that the Red Cross got a good return re-turn for the living contributions than t h'-y were in the blood merits of the exhibits. So. while the seared cattle , huddled in the middle of tin; ring, nosing into one another's ribs for comfort in the rtrange surroundings, the bids besran to mount. The hammer fell before the bid of 5- J 1 . 75 a head for the first lot of forty-four, forty-four, made by J. Maw of Plain City. The crowd had been fairly vanned up to th e 'ont-'st when the second lot was driven in. Perhaps it was on the merits of tlie animais. perhaps because the biu-d-rs had the Ked Cross fever, but at any rate Colonel Branson had the price up to 5 in a head in a few minutes. J. W.

Cauleih of Ogden put the high price of 3" cents a pound on the carload of hogs he bought. : Show Best Yet. ; The management of the stockyards last iiitht pressed pleasure at the very t Cons 'd era hie increase in the show as 1 demonstrated by the buyers and by the general public.
