MARKET LETTER.
Kansas City, Mo-. Aug.

Kansas City, Mo-. Aug. rs, 1905.
Live stock receipts at Kansas City
last week.
The cattle market improved every
daY last week till Friday, when buyers
appeared Indifferent and half the ad-
vance of the week was lost on every
thing, except the best corn fed cattle.
Expected heavy receipts this week
was the reason for the bad market
Friday. Corn fed steers are higher
today, in the face OF run of 10000
cattle, because these cattle are getting
scarcer every week, and will continue
to do so till some Of this years corn
crop has been turned into beef, The
supply last week at Kansas City was
SO, 600 cattle, and contained a good
share of grass Westerns from Kansas
and Oklahoma, large supply of she
stuff aud 10000 stockers and feeders.
The liberal supply Of 10000 cattle
Today was about what was looked for
Some OF the best corn fed steers seen
here this month sold today at 1915
and $50, also the highest prices Of the
month and 10 cents above the close ol
last week. Bulk OF the dry lot of
steers sell at $40 to $50, good grass
natives 4. so to 5, grass westerns all
the way from $40 to $50. Cows are
10 lower today. grass stuff selling at
2.35 TO 25, Gamers l.75 TO FPS, veals
steady. about quarter above week
ago. at to SIS for nice light ones
medium weights to 5. bulls 215 t.
325. More country buyers were here
last Wednesday than any other day
this season, and prices were the best,
gu that day, closing the week 10 to
20 cents below the best time, but
still 10 or Is cents higher than close
of previous week. High grade range
stockers and feeders sold at 40 To
$50, best natives Is to 425, top
stockers 9.95, while good many fairly
desirable stockeIs we're secured at 3
to SIS, Prices on them are about
steady today.
The hog market Is more or less
cratic, but the last two weeks have
gone by without any net change 10
average prices. More rough sows and
packing hogs have appeared lately,
drawn In by the high prices and grass
signs are common, account OF plenty
rains and rank forage, and these class
es of hogs are cut severely In price
when sold here. Top price today
& III, hulk OF sales OF wider range
than usual, at 8. 95 TO 615.
Sheep and lambs lost 10 or 10 cents
last week, account Of declines at
other markets, as the demand here
is ample to take care of all that are
coming, about 10000 per week. Top
lambs sold two different days last
week at T.20, and the same price was
paid for two different shipments OF
Utah lambs today. Yearlings bring
up to 5,75, Utah wethers sold at As
today. Ill pounds, ewes at I.75 and
bulk OF sales 10 the different classes
is close to these figures. Stockers
and feeders in demand at to $50,
but not many being secured.
Squire & B. OF Neodesha, Kas. had
a car OF cattle here Wednesday.

Letter TO Kelly & Nottingham
Onancock, Va

Dear Sirs: Your business is, when
a house burns down, to give the
owner some money to build new
one. 1t is good business. Queer
that the world got on so long with
out it.
We paint the one that burnt down
and the new one too. What is better,
We paint the houses that don't burn
down.
You insure the houses that burn;
we insure the houses that don't. You
have the ashes and smoke; all the
houses are ours.
We paint lead and zinc; Devoe. We
sell the paint to painters; we don''
paint.
Lead and-oil is the old fashion
paint. Devoe is zinc ground in with
lead and linseed oil; the best paint II
the world: and the cheapest, because
it takes fewer gallons than mixed
paints and it wears twice as long al
lead and-oi. Nobody wants pool
paint; there's lots of it, though, In
the world.
A. M. Griffin, Plainfield, N. j. writes
"Mr. Aaron Higgins, of Plainfield
always used 10 gallons Of mixed palm
for his house. Last Spring he bough
Is gallons of Devoe and had 4 GALLON
left"
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvoE & Co.,

Farmers Institutes, as will be noted
by reference to another column in this
paper, will be held at three different
points Of the Eastern Shore next week,
and in calling attention to the same
we cannot emphasize too strongly the
Importance of these Institutes to our
farmers and the great opportunity
which will be presented to them Of OBJ
tanning valuable information in many
branches of their work.
The Importance of these meetings is
too apparent to be questioned by any
one who will read the list of subjects
to be treated and the names of the
prominent men who will discuss and
explain them to us Subjects Of more
importance to our farmers, in fact,
could not have been selected, and it is
no disparagement 10 them to say, that
they need light on all of them. Intel
ligent as our farmers generally are
they will not say, that they know all
about the treatment Of the soil en-
bracing incubation and drainage, that
the kind of fertilizers to be used by
them, the quantity required and the
methods of applying it has not always
been more or less puzzle to them
that they are not sadly deficient in the
knowledge Of feeding live stock so al
to make it more profitable to them, and
that they cannot receive some lessons
in modern farming which will bs
beneficial to them.
They need light, Of course they do IL
all Of these matters, and offered t
them as it will be next week, free o
cost, 1t is not too much to expect tina
they will gladly avail themselves o
the opportunity which these meeting
will give them Of adding to their stool
of knowledge and later of converting
il into dollars and cents, which add t.
their comforts and make life NOR
worth living to them.
The progressive farmers, it goe
without saying, will be in attendance
but to that class who are disposed t
absent themselves, we submit, tina
they have profited too much by tn
operations Of the Produce Exchang
not to be convinced that it pays to &C
out of the the "old ruts" That the
need to learn, as much as they hav
by the Exchange in the handlin
and distribution of their produce, tbs
it is only the beginning of better thing
for them, if while they use their Draw
and muscles, they will seek the ligf
which will give proper direction
their labors.
We cannot too earnestly insist ths
it is the duty Of our farmers to atten
one or more of these institutes, and OF
farmers are surely too intelligent
refuse to avail themselves of the Of
portunity which will be presented
them to learn more of the impOrtar
subjects to be treated by the emineI
speakers who "have devoted years (
careful study and research to the col
sideration Of them"

A call has been made upon the can
didates for State offices to announce
their standing on the schoolbook ques-
tion-that is, whether they favor the
"single" or the multiple" list. 1t is
likely that the candidates will shortly
make their views known. Three Of
them so far are on record as being in
favor of the single list. They are
Lieut.-Gov. Joseph E. Willard, who is
a candidate for Governor; Gov. A. j.
Montague, opposing Senator Thomas
S. Martin for the United States Senate,
and Joseph d. Eggleston, Jr., of Prince
Edward, candidate for Superintendent
Of Public Instruction.
The candidates will, doubtless, be
called upon to give their views on this
and many other questions, and will
also be expected to give an account of
their stewardship after they have
served them in places of profit and
honor. The primary plan puts them
in a position to make these demands
upon them and the candidates, per-
nsps, might as we'll realize at once,
that they are to be in the future, not
the creatures of the political machines
but the servants of the people. Can
didates at least are not entitled to theiI
support, who do not define their posi-
lions clearly on all questions Of inter
est to them and who are not willing to
make promises SO definite that they
will know what to expect of them
Once again in the possession of theil
birthrlght under the primary plan
they will, if wise, know their rights
land dare maintain them"
