Missouri Cattle King Buys Thirty-fve
Cars of Feeders From Texas.

Kansas City. Mo-, Nov. 24.-Dave
Rankin, of Tarkio, Mo-. who is said to
be the heaviest cattle feeder In the
corn belt, or any other place, took on,
yesterday evening at one shipment
thirty-fve carloads of stockers and
feeders, which was probably the larg-
est single shipment made from these
yards by one person this year. In
cluded in this big string of feeders
were ten carloads OF Panhandle steers
from the ranch of Alfred Rowe. OF
Clarendon. that arrived in the morn
ing. The Rowe cattle are always in de-
mand and seldom stay over night in
the yards. as they are high grade AMI
uniform in color and always sell Well.
The entire string of twenty three car
loads sold at $3.10. Mr. Rankin has a
patch of $4,000 acres Of corn ON his
farm and in addition to what he raises
on this buys large amount of corn
from his neighbors. He will feed this
winter in the neighborhood Of $500
head of cattle.

TEXAS WILL RAISE HOGS.
Farmers in That Great State Turning
Their Attention to Mortgage Lift

efSs
Fort Worth, Tex. Nov. 4.-The one
thing lacking at Fort Worth is hogs.
Texas is big and resourceful state.
and in time will produce hogs enough,
but as yet the farmers have not given
the subject much attention. Now that
they have an inducement 1t Is more
than likely that hog culture will be-
come growing and profitable indus
try. Those who have tried II say That
Texas Is natural hog country. Most
Texas stockmen are opposed to rails
ing anything they can't fatten on cot
tonseed meal. but they will get over
that In time. Corn. alfalfa and Kaffir
are easy to grow in this climate ana
ell are great pork producers.
Texas farmers are starting right by
getting good breeding stock as a foun-
dation. Some have gone north for their
selections and did not hesitate to pay
a long price when they found what
they wanted 1t will be we'll for hog
men to keep an eye on Texas, for his
tory is sometimes made down this way.
There is plenty Of room for more hogs.
and now that farmers have found that
they can be easily produced 1t will
not take many years to get the supply
up to the requirements Of the mar
kets. A big share OF the hog supply
now comes from Oklahoma and Ar
kansas.

Cattle MARKET WEAK
Excessive Supplies For Thanks
giving Causing Decline,
Except Choice Grades
ANOTHER REDUCTION IN HOGS
Prices Are Now About 25 Cents Lower
Than the Close Last Week and e5
Cents Below Last Weeks Best Prices
Some of the Causes Contributing
to This Condition.

Chicago. Nov .-Cattle-Excessivs
supplies for Thanksgiving week are
causing weak market and while good
fat are selling at unchanged prices
poor to medium grades are 10@15 lower
than last week. There was only a mod
crate supply today of the better class
and the market was dull and weak.
Sheep-Supplies are showing big
falling off, prices rising under the in
fluence of strong demand, the range
shipping season being nearly over.
A feature of the supply was an ex-
cessive proportion of thirty to sixty
day fed western stuff which is reach
ing the market prematurely to meet hos
competition from the tail end of the
western grass run. This stuff has to
be marketed at loss at this juncture,
whereas IL fed a little longer it would
show a profit.
Hogs-Trade was active at further
reductions of 10@l5, prices being about
% lower than the close of last week
and 65 below the best time last week.
Heavy receipts are the principal cause
for the decline.
A feature of the market this week Is
the starting in of new packing COM
pany in the trade. There Is undoubt-
eddy considerable money in packing
hogs at prevailing prices. which are the
lowest in four years. II. Boore & Co..
the new hog packing concern, now oc-
cupying the old International house
came into the trade for theis initial
purchasing yesterday, and all traders
welcomed their first appearance on the
market. Owen Egan, their buyer, took
500 head of the days offerings at a
range of $4.37Ls @4.50. thus helping
trade In the better classes to some ex-
tent. The concern promises to be in
the trade regularly. and will increase
their purchases as the demands of
their trade calls forit. Hog dealers claim
that there is good working margin
in the product at this time, and the
starting up Of the Boore company Is
greatly appreciated by statesmen.
While hogs are coming to market In
increasing numbers. 1t is also noted
that the weight is on the increase. the
average for the 1S7,491 hogs last week
having been 233 pounds against 227
pounds the previous week, 225 pounds
three weeks ago. and 222 pounds for the
corresponding week last year.

CORN TOO HIGH FOR FEEDERS.
Low Prices at the Yards and Hopes of
the Farmers DISCOURAGE Eeedinn

Low Prices at the YARDS and hopes OF
the Farmers Discourage Feeding.
Chicago, Nov. 24.-"Cattle feeders
make the price of corn" said John
Turner and because they are not bulls
the marketward movement of that
grain is hampered. AT present prices
of cattle and hogs the feeder can not
pay 33G35 cents for corn. Country
grain dealers offer considerably less,
but the corn holder has the impress
sion and holds to 1t tenaciously that
the feeder will eventually take his
grain at his price. He is encouraged in
holding this position by coterie of
Chicago spectators who have ac-
quired burdensome long lines and are
anxious to secure assistance In carry
ing it. When the holder is inclined to
part with corn al 80 cents or less, feed
ers will be ir the market, but not be-
fore"
Cattle feeders in from the country
recently are unanimously of the opin-
ion that corn owners who have been
hanging on so tenaciously must event
ually make up their minds to accept
grain dealers prices. AT the same
time they attribute bullishness of hold
ers to the fact that more cattle are not
going on feed. All the boom Is out of
the feeding business this season, and
a few cents per bushel in the price of
corn is powerful argument with the
man who contemplates making beef, as
it may involve his profit or loss on the
transaction.
Illinois farmers are getting from
32k cents to IS cents for the corn they
are selling, Iowa farmers about 80 cents
and Indiana farmers about the same
as the Illinois. There Is some variation
in the prices that the man on the farm
gets with the rail rate to market.
These prices are not very attractive,
and are one reason that the farmer is
not selling readily. Over large terri
tory the feeder Is paying the farmer
more than the shipper. Those who are
most familiar with the corn situation,
say that 1t is a month later than
usual, the corn maturing a month later
and the corn consequently promising to
start to market month later than in
the ordinary year. Those who bear this
in mind are of the opinion that the
small country offerings are not as yet
particularly significant except that the
small stocks at Chicago might effect
prices together with the small move
ment.

Chicago, Nov. 24.-Wheat-The mar

all powerful factor was the impression
which prevailed generally that the Ar
nours have been continually adding 10

are estimated at from Is to 20 million
bushels. The crowd Is supposed to be

siderable nervousness. There was good

December was not as strong but ad-
vanced with May.

May showing firmness. The feature
was heavy selling by Bartlett Frazier

December was caused by further de-
cline in prices of new corn and increas-
