Mr.. Brash again favors us with y
puzzle for our young friends, for
which we thank him. lie should not
forget to give us. in confidence, the
answer to future contributions of the
sort, us otherwise we are put to the
trouble Of solving them 10 sec that
they arc all right. The first two
have yielded their answers almost at
sight, but it is possible that others
are forthcoming which will prove an
excessive tax upon editorial time.
Both puzzles are clever, and the
rhyme has y pleasant jingle.

Dodge City ColUboy: Choate &. Borum
made a sale of 5000 head of cattle to
Ed. FenlOn, but the latter, upon refiec-
ton subsequent to the purchase, declined
to receive the cattle, owing to Obscurity
of title. Mr.. ChOate is deceased, and
although all of his heirs and creditors
are in favor Of the sale. Mr.. FenlOn was
fearful there might be trouble unless the
deceased's interest was disposed Of
through the regular channel of the Pro
bate Court. Letters Of administration
viii now be issued upon the estate of
the deceased, and what property Of the
same that shall hereafter be disposed of

the mean time the 5000 head Of cattle
owned by the estate and Mr. Borum

On account of the late fever scare
throughout the State, the Santa Fe Rail

Dodge City Colg5oy: Out of the 1900
head of horses that have been in the
Dodge City market this season, only
about 600 head remain unsOld. The
price for stock horses ranges
from S18 to $50, and COW ponies
have brought from S34 to $50. Everything
considered, the horse market has been
fair in Dodge City this year. Early in
the season the market was overstocked,
and before selling fairly commenced the
money market became stringent, owing
to financial troubles in the East. Buyers
were cautious, and held out for some
time for an inevitable fall in prices. A
decline followed, and, to a certain ex-
tent, the purchasers bOssed the market
At one time horses could be purchased
at less figures here than they could in
/ their native home in Texas. Many OF
our local stock dealers made handsome
/ bargains in the purchase of horses. The
sellers, however, were not discouraged
and will come up smiling again in the
! Dodge City market next year with fresh
supplies of horses.

Dodge City Globe: The total number
of beef cattle shipped from the Dodge
City stock yards this season, up to Sept.
1st, is 746 cars, or 1912 head.
Winfield Telegram: A curious and fatal
malady has broken out among the hogs
west Of town. An examination of the
intestines of dead animals show con-
siderable Inflammation. Their hams also
become spOngy in spots.
Some cattle died recently in Decatur
county from a disease the symptoms Of
which cannot be accounted for. The
affair has caused considerable alarm
among the stock raisers in that portion
OF the State, but 1t is thought to be moth

Fraudfn Butter.

Notwithstanding the passage ola law
prohibiting in this State the sale of imi-
tatiOn butter under the guise of the real
commodity, it appears that various pre-
partitions, in nOWise connected with
COWS are put on the market with intent
to deceive. The meeting of butter deal
ers which was held in this city recently
was not entirely unanimous as to the
actual amount Of mischief done by these
limitations, some Of the butter men con-
tending that the general public knew
good butter from the fraudulent article,
although the limitations might interfere
with the sale Of aged and highly-fia-
vOred butter. But the meeting was
agreed as TO the protective measures to
be adopted. 1t was resolved that a COM
mittee be appointed to hear complaints
from defrauded purchasers and to prose-
cute those who eYade the law regulating
