 Even up to date large numbers of COWS are going into all lhe beef mar kets. There is no means of deter mining just how many have been sent to the shambles this year, but but three or sour. thousand in the Chicago pens at one lime have not been an uncommon sight this sea- son. Many dea 'ers believe that fully half mil lon she cattle have been on the Chicago market this year. Certainly such inroads as this on the producing portion of our herds will soon be felt and the increase must be greatly diminish ed. Add to this the thousands of veal calves marketed, and it gives almost a guarantee of a shortage in the near future. Northwestern Live Stock Journal,
 J. R. Haigler, member of one of the heaviest cattle institutions in Arizona, is paying his first visit to Prescott ;n many months. In con- versation with Mr. Haigler we learn that stock affairs in Pleasant Valley are in such excellent condition as 10 justify a boom when the market stiffens up in demand and price, which many now interested in cattle summing believe is going to take place soon, either through the course of national legislative aid or by the fact of western ranges being unable at the pres ent time to fur nish anything near like the number of beef steers they could be relied on two years ago. Many of our practical cattlemen. like NIT. Haig- Ter, who have devoted n life time to the business and carefully studied its financial conditions, are of the opinion that the days of its depres- sion are fast drawing to close and a pay streak about to be opened, which we hope and wish is the case. -Hoof and Horn.

 An Indiana farmer keeps green pole in his stable through the win ter for his horses to gnaw at. For  bad colt he keeps white ash or cottonwood, but st;ll better pop lar.
