terday in the stock market. But the range

Topeka, kas., Nov. 1I.-(Special) The
Interstate Association of Live Stock San
itary Boards will meet at st. Louis on De-
cember ,, when steps will be taken to Sc
cure uniform quarantine regulations be-
tween all Of the states of the Union ard
the federal government. The quarantine
fixed by the federal government Is now
lifted between November 10 and February
10 The Kansas quarantine is off from De-
cember l to February l. Other states have
dates of their own and there is a conflict
among all. Secretary Wilson has agreed
to change the government dates so as to
leave the country open from November I
to January Il. providing the various states
will also adopt those dates in order to make
the regulations uniform. Taylor Riddle,
secretary Of the Kansas live stock sanitary
commission. and also secretary of the In
terstate Association. said tonight that he
believed the delegates to the ST. Louis con-
vention would accept the dates fixed by the
secretary of agriculture.

There are still several train loads to be
