KANSAS CIrY.-This has been another week of big cattle receipts. 87 900 head here, including 10000 calves. The market was about 10 lower Monday, but has remained steady since, stockers and feeders and cows showing the least decline for the week. Quality has not averaged IS good as few weeks ago. and most of the range steers have sold between $500 and S3.50. hardly any above this. and some common stuff below $500. Heavy Colorado cows sold at $2.30 to S3.05 this week, best panhandle cows S2.T0, bulk of the cows $2. 35 to s2.6O, several big strings Of cam ners around S2.00. Calves have sold strong, some from the range at S4.50 to $500 The demand is first class from all sources, and in view of this, together with 4 let up m the receipts within week or two, commission men are advising feeding buyers to hurry their pur- chases, and those who have cattle on iced to hold them back till the run drops off, as higher prices are looked for then.
 Sheep and lamb receipts are de- rapidly, as the end Of the { range season is at hand. Supply l this week " 000 head. only a taste ! tor each of the various sources oil demand Prices are from 25 to 4OI cents higher, Colorado lambs sell- ! ing up 10 S7.65 on different days. ! vearlings at S6.0) weathers NC !

CROP ROTATION.

Most men know that some sort of
rotation is good for the land and the
crops, and only the few will follow
the like, but this is not the sort of ro-
tation which insures the best results. A
sensible rotation will cover four or five
years, during which time the land will
have the rest and renovation connected
with the use of clover crop and as
pasture for one year. 1t does not help
the land any to have corn, oats, barley.
follow each other year after year. Such
crops all take fertility from the soil
and put nothing back. Thirty years of
this sort of rotation on even the best
soil wears 1t out, and the available
plant food used by these crops be-
comes exhausted. Here is a good rota-
tion for all the good prairie soils of the
northwest, and 1t will apply on the
poorer lands of the east as well: First,
corn, then wheat, barley or oats, this
crop seeded down with clover; next
year, clover hay and the plowlng un-
der of the second crop; then corn
again. This system of rotation will
make the land better every year. Tim.
othy may be sown with the clover and
an extra year Of pasture got In on the
foregoing rotation with much advan.
tage, putting the available manure or
this pasture. Good crops. we might
say big ones, follow this sort of land
treatment.
