Scarcity of Fat Cattle.
Chicago. March 2S.-There are good
many who are in pretty close touch
with market conditions who think that
the supply of cattle in the country is
by no means heavy and that later IN
the season there is sure to develop a
marked shortage. There are indica-
lions that seem to verify this predic-
ton even now, but again it must be
conceded that the country is large ana
those who figure out these things often
so astray One thing that about all
agree on is that the choice fat cattle
due to the fact that corn Is high in
price and most stockmen sent their
cattle i'm before they We're fat and to
the poor condition of the corn, which in
certain parts of Iowa, for instance.
failed to put on the necessary fat.
Many farmers fed their cattle enough
corn to make them hog fat. and yet
they seemed to make little or no gain.
Recently there has been more COM
plant about the soft corn than there
was early in the winter possibly be-
cause the results were more apparent.
There is no doubt but what the poor
feeding quality of the corn was more
responsible for such q large proper
ton of short-fed cattle being dumped
on the market than any other one
cause. Corn on the market was worth
the same whether it was
soft or not. but it did not produce the
same result by any means. During last
week. tho receipts We're little lighter.
the proportion of the common and half
fat cattle was as large if not larger
than it has been at any time this sea-
son.

IHE SCHOOL LAW.

The latest attack made on +. G.
Stokes candidate for Governor is that
he has been in favor of the present
School Law.
This might work against him in
some localities where they refused to
appropriate money; to buy books So
the poor would stand on equal footing
with the rich; or to pay teachers living
salaries.
But here the present school law
should receive the enthusiastic snip
port of every citizen.
This is endorsed by the premiums
awarded New Jersey Schools at st.
Louis Exposition
f. &. Stokes has done more for
the public schools than any other
man in the State at this time.
