WESTERN MARKET LETTER.
Special Correspondence.


Kansas city, Mo. Monday, March
A.-Cattle receipts last week at Kansas
City were 2a,2C0, about the same as pre-
vlous week. and about 1000 less than
corresponding week last year, Proper
ton OF western rtuff was light, and
prices on western fed steers averaged
probably 10 cents lower; they ranged
from s3.i0 20 s4,6O, stockers, feeders,
cows and heifers sold strong all week,
end closed shade higher than the
close of previous week, 1t was the best
stccker and feeder market for several
months, as country buyers seemed TO
have confidence In higher prices for beef
cattle in the near future. Any kind OF
setockers carrying decent quality sold
from 1885 TO $40, and hoshy feeders
sold IN several Instances from $3.50 to
81 10; very few cattle sold for less
than 1926 The run today Is 1000, and
the market is steady on everything,
with q slightly weaker tendency on
stockers and feeders, owing TO the snow
storms In this territory yesterday, which
Is discouraging to country buyers,
Sheep receipts last week were 5000;
previous week, 2i.7i9 same week last
year, 1880. Prices were generally
weak, and lambs lost 10 10 Is cents;
yearlIngs, ewes and wethers. 8 to 10
cents. Quality was hardly up 10 pre-
yious week, which accounts partly for
lower prices. Run today IL 5000 head,
and the price Is 10 cents higher. Best
lambs sold today ut $3.50; yearlings,
| s., 90; wethers, 81 so, and some choice
western ewes, shipped in by the West
ern Meat 4 Live Stock Co, Athena,
Kansas, ll6 brought $3.50.

Increase In Church Membership

In 1900 only per cent Of the total
population Of the United States were
church members. whereas today the
ratio is 80 per cent. the members in
ercasing from 3G4 600 to 20,000000 Not
only has there been this great gain in
numbers, but there has also been q
great increase in activity. as indicated
by the rise Of foreign missions. the
modern Sunday school, young peoples
societies, brotherhoods, young mems
Christian associations and kindred
movements,
Investigations show, however that
the large majority Of young men. or
90J9,000 out Of 14.2J0,000, are outside
of church membership Even after al
lowing a large margin for those who
are not members, but attend religious
services at least occasionally, It is safe
TO say that fully one-half are wholly
outside Of church fellowship or direct
influence
1t may be comfort TO know that
this is no new problem. Professor Will
