ABOUT FIVE-DOLLAR HOGS | Why a Good Pig ~ Worth as Much as an | Ordinary Steer, PRODUCER AND CONSUMER EACH GAINS His fighness, the American Hog, 18 Just Now a Blessing to Everyhody and & Joy in the Market or th Trying Pan. The American hog has been cutting an exceedingly wide swath for the past threa months at all the live stock markets in the couuvey and the end 18 not yot. ‘Thelength of time for which § ver huniced or better hias been the ruling price of hogs is almost unprecedented within the history of the 'Jouth Omaha market, and the same is sub- stantialiy true of the other markets in the countey. During the entire month of June antil the 25th inst. the prices exceeded an average of $4.50, and on many days came near touching the 8 mark. On the 25th the averago paid was $5.01 and from that date until the present time the average has not boen below that fizure butl on Lwo occasions, the 27th being $4.09 and on August 27 $487. During July the azerage for nearly each day excoedod .50, although there were a fow oxcoptions. Kor August the average was bout $.40 and for the first three weeks of September about .25, ‘T'he five-doltar hog is not an uninteresting study, and especially to the feeder is 1t inter- osting. There are reasons, of course, for the long and continued prevalence of tno five- dollar price, and there are many of them. Each person familiar with the situation has A pot solution and ho is perfectly willing to explain it. The real respousibility for the continued strong market and high prices may be laid to theincreased demand for American pork and tho present shortage in the bog crop. There are numerous other reasons, also, and they have quite a beariug upon the situation. Where the Big Fellows Galn. The increased demana for fresh meat ot home is large, and this 1s supplied by the nome packers. ‘This creates a great eastern demand for hogs, and the eastern firms aro on the warket early each aay purchasingfor shipment. They place large orders and take a goodly supply of the receipts and pay gooa prices for what they desi ors aro nou doing muc purchase only what uccossary to supply the trade. The large packers are 10 & great measure respoasible for the high market price, aud the smull packer is the sufferer und loser. When the $3.50 bog is predominating the big packers Tun their plants to the fullest capacity, and when the sluck season comes around they have their warehouses full of mess pork and other product. Hereis wherethe big packers help along the market and assist in keeping the market up. When hogs bring & mess vork is worth §12 per varrel. The vig packers have an enormous supply on hand and fairly coin money after the busy season is done with in disposing of mess pork at $12 ver barrel, while their hogs for slaugnter only cost them §3.50. Of other products the same is true. When “he Lime approuches Lor the slack season, and the supply is light, the packers’ brokers on the Board of Trads set avout to force up the market, both on hozs and product, and they generally meet with success, as they com- mence and end at the proper time, This lit- tle procedure is what makes unprofitavle the small packing enterprises, as thoy have not capital nor credit sufficient to lay in a sup- ply while the prices of hogs are low, ana lose money when compelled to pay $ for hogs for slaughtering. Wuen the big pack- ers zroon the market purchasing during the regime of the § hog, they fairly pound the market and generally secure their stuff 10 to 15 cents lower tkan eastern shippers. Uncle Jerry's Intluence Felt, Another reason for the continued good prices hogs are briuging is the marvelous increased demand for American pork abroad. For years foreign ports were closed to the Awmérican hog, the zovernments of lurope holding American pork as being unbealthy, and the fear of trichinosis wus allpotent Wwith the people of those countrios. President Harrison’s administration, however, took the matter n hand and solved the question of how to ntroduce the American hog in his elory to the Buropeans and to creato a do- mand for his society in the shape of succulent bam and nutritious side meat. The bureau of animal industry of the Department of Agriculture was ~ established, competent and experienced persons were appointed and placed in charce. By microscopical 1nspection every case of trickiinosis in the wni- mal slaughtered is detected and condemned, and ull chance of the propogation of trichi~ nw is done away with. Two specimens ure taken from each animal killed and are: thor- oughly inspected by @& microscope. When the inspection Lad proven a success the De- arument of State .bevan negotiations with Germany, France and other liuropean na- tlons for tbe removal of the emburgo upon American pork, and by reciprocal arrange- ments with the governments of those countries was successful. Since the rewoval of the embargo the foreign demand for Amorican hog products has increased wonderfully, and the export trade of the past twelve ‘months 18 wmore than $30,000,000 greator than the preceaing twelve months, A tablo prepared at Washington by the bu- rea of statistics gives the values of the ex- ports during the month of July 1astas com- pared with the same month of 1801 as fol- lows: Germany from #1 Denmark from §20,061 10§ $3,884 10 $21,250; Spuin from §5, The export trade increasing s vapidly bas cre a demand for hogs for slaughter and has been a prominent factor In keeping up the market price, absolutely ltaly irom 6 to £12,800, Mis Highness 1s Soarce. There is a noticeanie shortage in this year's hog crop at the present time and the Bupply not being equal to the demand bas helped tc create the hog. The feeders bave rushed outo the market with almost overything in oraer Lo secure the benefit of tne bigh prices, and the usual supply has not been held back, and there is a shortage in tho receipts at all the markets. Tho de- mand is excoedingly good and naturally forces and keeps up prices when thore is & shortage in the recoipts, This yeur's crop 15 nearly i, and the receipts will continue Vight uniil the new crop is ready for market, ‘The tiwe set for the new crop's coming 1o warket 1s varied, and there is vot & con- £ensus of opinion upou any aute. Some of the best hog wen at the yards think by the 18t of Noveniber the receipts will pick up and tneadvance of thenew crop will commenco to come in. Others name December as the wmonth, The general opinion wmong those versed in such matters is that about the middle of Novewber the first of tho new crop will make its appear- snce on the markets. Until the wmove- ment of the new crop commences thero is bound to be light receipts aud prices must remain up for some time. The ayerage may go below &, but it will bardly fall low $4.50. Thero bs a geoal diversity of opiuion as to wheu the expectea break must come. A few look for it every duy, but tho more conservative und expericnced ones are strong iu the belief that the average will not g0 below 85 for AL least two woeks and prob- ably not for ove wonth. There are others who can sit down and figure it out for you Just why the break cantot possibly come be- Tore December 1, Where the Farmer Comes L. ‘The blessiugs of tne $ hog 1o the furwer wnd feeder ave, like the articies offered at mnuvndno, 100 numerous 1o wention,” market for bogs for the last four months, aud the prices paid, bave been more bene- ficial to the farmers of the country than cau easily be stated. it ouly is this true of the four mouibs, but the same wmay be sald of the yoar.

As a lifter of mortgagos the & hog has beon a power all over the west. The ‘calam- ity howler" might well pause and consider what the $5 hog means, and if it looke very much like the western farmors were poverty- stricken.

Hogs will brig an averago price of upwaras of & eizht months in the year, ana with the increasea demand for pork miy keep up to the 84 mark for the next twelve months. President Harrl President Harrison’s administration took hold of the question of introducing Ameri- can pork 10to foreign lands with the deter- mination that thoso markets must be opoued up to the trade, and success followed tho ef- fort. The first step was to adopt measures to remove the prejudices of the Germans, the French and other nations, and convince them that the American hog wa healthy and American pork palatable ana wholesomu us a food. Its cheapness and exceilence was soon estabiished wmoug tho people of those lands, and the wovernments being convinced through the offorts of the admin- istration, the ports were thrown open and the embargo on tho American hog was raised in almost every couniry on the globe.

Earnest Reasoning with the Farmors at Orehurd School House. Savaak, Nel —[Special to Tue Bee.|—Hon. G. D. Meiklejohn spoke 1n Or- churd last evening to a large audience in our school house. The speake: said: *Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: 1 am bero to call your attention to the ques- tions of today that twelve millions of voters must settls this fall. Now, let's ask, why is it the citizens of Kurope and of all the old world are constantly coming to our shores to flad employment! Why is it that the in times 1n_ our ~ his- tory that we have had tanff for reve- nue only, these periods huve been marked by famine; why is it tho four times we havo had tariff for protection we have financial success uud general prosperity! In 1860 our goverzment had to pay 12 and 15 per cont on the dollur to borrow money to carry on tho war, but today we pay no such rate of interesy, and are in a condition of prosperity _ unparalleled in the history. School houses dot the plains, hills and valieys of our beautiful land, and the United States has become one’ groat work shop. Nine millions have been placed in the savings bunks by the working people, vet at the sume Lime our Iabor has not been allowed to be pushed down to the level of European labor. Oppressed of overy land have had an equal ohance and & free home 1n our borders. Au Effect of Protecilon. *1 am willing to admit that the reasons for this prosperity’ are mauy, but the factory, the ono thut hias mado labor possible in this country, is the result of the policy of protec- tion, What is tanff for revenue only{ ln Eugland a tariff is placed on all goods not made at home, and in England it is catled free trade. Protection, as in thé United States, is to let ull goods that cannct be man- ufactured in this country to pass free and keeps American goods in American stores. In 1860 90 per cent of the goods sold in our stores wero brauded by English firms; today 90 per cent bear Ameérican brands, “*HBut my opponents ask me how sbout tho stikes, how ubout the Carnegie strikef Lot me tell you that but 375 men out of 88,000 were affected by the reduction of wages, aud the balance struck out of sym- puthy. But my opponents never tell vou that free trade in the old country cavsea strikes, and it I were dishonest I woula tell you théy did, {t was simply a conflict be- tween capital and labor, a conflict that has been waging for 4,000' vears, and alviays will wage until the end of time, Filty Dollars Apiece. “But my independent friends say, ‘Give us more money--$30 per capita.’ Well, how Are you golng 1o get it when it s issued?
