An Iowa Man Builds After Pattern
Seen Here.
A gentleman from Cresco, Iowa, has
ordered from Mr.. Prue a plan from
which he can build residence after
the plan of the home of w. S. Manning
in this city. While visiting in this city
this gentleman was attracted by the
splendid residences of the city and
finally conferred upon that of Mr.. Man
ming.
The plans are being forwarded as
rapidly as they can be prepared and
the work is going on in Iowa as fast as
the plans are received 1t is quite a
commentary upon progress in Lady
smith that her residences should be
taken as models in old cities. There
are many however that deserve the
copying.

Special to The Optic.

Special ~ The Optic.
KANSAS CITY, Monday, Feb. g.
Cattle receipts last week were rath.
or light. as the continued bad wealth.
er has made It hard to get In from
the country. The same conditions are
In effect today. and only 1900 head
are here, and small runs elsewhere,
The light run last week met higher
prices for the best cattle. but proha.
bly, majority OF The receipts sold bare.
ly steady, medium TO common cows
and heifers were lower. Packers
claimed the weather made 1t hard or
impossible for them to ship out their
product. as many refrigerator cars
were tied up In the east. Today. how.
ever. the run is SO light that no ar-
guments are of avail to the buyers,
and the market il strong to 10 cents
higher. covering pretty well every.
thing. Stockers and feeders have
been quiet, and the supply Of them
has been small for two or three weeks.
Demand has also been limited, as few
feeders like to put cattle in the feed
lot in zero weather. but prices are
about steady. Fed western steers sell
at 1878 to $500. unless extra finished.
