Breeders Gazette comment on the
Chicago market:
Butchers and Gamers stock, which
includes cows, bulls, and thin steers, are
rs cheap as ut this time last year; in
deed there was never q time when poor
stock could be bought much cheaper than
at present.
Notwithstanding the fact that all
"'lump-jaw' cattle received ut the
Union stockyards are promptly con-
demned every day brings its quota. From
fifteen to thirty head per week are re-
ceived, not one of which is allowed TO
leave the yards alive.
During the first eleven months of this
year we have received exactly , ,375 ,552
cattle, 80 $50 calves, + IA ,G37 hogs,
1873 ISL sheep and - ,O4G horses. These
figures show an increase, as compared
with the same time last year, of 237 ,552
cattle, IS ,720 calves, 1873 1891 sheep and
1916 horses and decrease of 1913 ,335 hogs.
Unprecedentedly large numbers of cows
are still being thrown upon the market
Many of them are fat and make excellent
beef, but the great majority of the offer
ings are the verieSt rubbish, and are only
fit to 90 into cans. Prices are shOclingly
low, from 81 .50@2 90 buying the largest
part. The poorest 90 rs low as 81 .259
80. This wholesale marketing of she
stock will tell with no uncertain effect
upon the future beef supply.

Gunnison Colo. News-Democrat: The
mild weather of the past few weeks has
been of unreasonable benefit TO ranch
men of this county. None of the cattle
men have yet begun to feed their stock
and the animals are still getting an abun-
dance of feed on the range.
In conversation with one OF the largest
cattle-raisers in the county the other day
he said that this kind of weather is worth
$1,000 day to the ranchmen of Gunnison
county. When asked how he figured it
out, he stated that there are about 5000
head of cattle and 1000 head of horses in
the county. Deduct from this about
$500 head that are being used for domes-
tic purposes and are now being fed -,
which viii leave about $500 head of
range cattle and horses. This stock
would consume eighty-flve tons of hay
per day, which will, in the spring
bring the ranchmen from $40 to Sl3 per
ton.
The cattlemen now have their stock
rounded up i'll punches and have taken up
the weaker ones, which could not proba-
bly, stand a severe storm. In the event
of n heavy storm these cattle could be
taken of the range in few days to be
fed at the ranches. The cattle rs rule
are III prime condition and could undergo
several weeks of rough weather before
the ranchmen would be compelled to take
them in, The precaution taken to hold

The cattle business is rapidly develop
ing in the Sandwich Islands, which have
already nearly half Il million head. In
that mild climate the cattle thrive well
and increase rapidly. Some of the i'm
proved breeds have been introduced and
it is hoped that the expectation of sur
plus stock to the San Francisco beef mar
ket will, in the future, form a remunera-
tive industry
