KANSAS CITY MARKET
Review of Prices and Condition of
 the Past Week.

Kansas City. Mo, July 2S.-Receipts of cattle on the local market show a material increase the past week over those of the former week. With the increase in supply, came a wide range Ii nquality, from the lowest classes of steers and she stuff to toppy kinds. The increase was mostly on the quar- antine side and range offerings in the native division. Prices have declined 15 to 25 cents, showing the entire ad vance of the former week wiped out.
 Fancy heavy beeves were scarce and
 values were not fairly tested. The top was $5.65, while offerings were plentiful at S5@5.5O. Plain half fat
 kinds were not wanted. Mixed steers
 and heifers sold about steady with the range during the preceding week. Stockers and feeders were dull at 10 to 15 cents lower prices. Veal calves strong. Western grades are beginning to come, but the quality is poor. Fol- lowing the liberal supply of last week close to 16, 900 cattle are in the pens today. A few over 5000 were in the quarantine division The quality was
 only fair to good, including a large per cent of plain western cows that brought S212.50. Fat steers were
 scarce, only a few bringing above $5. NdllNe HGiltIS brought St hO- lne
 market averaged 15 to 15 cents lower and closed with a number still unsold.
 Good cows brought .S3.25@4.3O; veal
 calves, $56 $50. Good choice light weight stOckers were in demand but | other kinds were not wanted. A large
 number were plain western grades. | Prices of hogs reached the high
 point of the year yesterday, being 211
 to cents above last Saturday. The
 top was S5.75 and the bulk of sales
 S5.G7 F G 5.75. The quality is generally
 good, though in spots some thin grass
 CTS and rough mixed grades were of fered. Light weight butcher hogs were l in best demand.
 After a gain of 15 to 25 cents in the sheep division, prices were 10 to 15 cents lower today. Spring lambs
 bring S7@7.5O. western sheep $505.5O, yearlings $5.5O05.75 and ewes $465. The demand on nearly all classes is
 expected to remain strong with mod crate receipts.

of permitting the water taker to help
himself to what he wanted and waste
as much as he pleased. At the present
time the department is setting meters
at the rate of about 300 a month, and
the public, in whose interest they are
set, is beginning to accept them with
equanimity and as a matter of course.
1.-THE fact is that waste of water in
this city threatened to sap our very
vitals, and our efforts to curb 1t have
already been rewarded by a reduction
of nearly 40 per cent in the consump-
ton, which gives us several years res
pite to procure an additional supply
So, all hail to the little silent watch
man that never sleeps and that can
neither be bribed, bullied nor bluffed.
"If it appears to you, gentlemen, that
I have been overriding this hobby, and
I admit it is a hobby of mine for the
riding of which 1 have suffered much
execration, 1 shall let it's results be
my apology, for it has added to the
available water supply of the city of
Los Angeles and the country generally
by at least 500 inches of water already
and will double this amount within a
year"

Angeles March 10, 1905, most heartily
approves of the proposition as recom-
mended by Forest Supervisor Thomas
to make Of the San Gabriel reservation
a game preserve, from which all hunt
ers may be excluded.
Resolved, That we believe that with
out such exclusion from the forest re-
serves all efforts to prevent mountain
fires therein will be in great measure
arduous, expensive and ineffective.
Resolved, That a copy of these reso-
lutions be sent to Supervisor Thomas
for transmission to the forest service
department at Washington.
f. p. Lukens remarked that he was
very much gratified that the national
government had already taken steps
to restore trees in the mountain sec

that three representatives. of the gov
ernment had just arrived in Los An

where they would begin systematic

TELLS HOW TO SAVE WATER
William MuIholland Declares City Is
Not Wasting Its Supply

a paper by William Mulholland, super
intendent Of the Los Angeles water
works system. Mr. Mulholland said:
"The city of Los Angeles, with an
estimated population of 175.OOO, last
summer consumed, or, more properly
speaking, consumed and wasted an
average of S4,OOO,OOO gallons of water
per day, or at the rate of about 1876 gal
Ions per capita. In the summer of the
year 1901 the portion of the city sup
piled by the Los Angeles Water COM

the astounding rate of 800 gallons per

URGES REFORESTATlON
Says Water Supply Depends Upon
Saving Timber Land

Forests should be maintained on
mountain slopes, because the rainfall
is greatest on such slopes" said T. P.
Lukens of Pasadena at the evening ses-
sion. 1.-THE forest" he said "is thing
of beauty and affords shelter for the
wild creatures that God has created.
The forests were created for all people
for all time. Man has recklessly,
through greed and indifference, robbed
future generations of their heritage.
We are amenable to the laws of God as
we are to the laws framed by man,
many of which we would violate If 1T
were not for fear of punishment by
penalties prescribed. For this reason
we should reforest the mountains, for
as a race and a people we will surely
be held responsible by posterity and
our God for the destruction of that
which was never ours; only given us
to use, and deliver to our successors
unimpaired.
1--WE should reforest because we owe
it to those who are to live after us.
The forests were created for the bene-

is our duty to our God and future gem
erations that we return the forests
with their manifold blessings.
"our honored president of the
United States says the prosperity of
California in the hotter and drier agri-
cultural regions depends upon the pres
ervation Of her water supply. And the
water supply cannot be preserved un-
less the forests are preserved.
"There are many reasons why we
should reforest. 1t must be evident to
all thoughtful observers that Southern
California has reached its limit of de-
velopment unless more water can be
obtained. That can be accomplished
only by planting trees on our water
sheds for the conservation of our
rainfall"

What we desire today is to reach
thorough understanding of the sources

possibilities of increasing it, or utiliz-
ing it to better advantage, so that we
may plan for the future along such
carefully determined lines that the
very utmost may be made of our re-

DANGER FROM SEWAGE WATER

"It has been decreed that sewage
shall not be used for the irrigation
of certain crops" said w. S. Post of
Los Angeles, in connection with the
topic "Impounding the Flood Waters" /"
adding that this rule has been made
because 1t is feared that onions,
Strawberries, tomatoes, radishes and
celery may transfer raw sewage from
the fields to our mouths. There is some
such danger If the irrigation is i'm
properly or carelessly done" sugges-
tions were made for the scientific
treatment of sewage to increase the

DANGER OF WASTE

PROBLEM IS SERIOUS
Chief Engineer Of Government Re-

Of Warning at Irrigation
Congress

Speaking on "The Water Supply of
Southern California" Joseph B. Lippin-
colt, chief engineer of the United
States reclamation service, declared
the most important question now be-
fore the people of Southern California
is the water problem. He said.
"At the present rate of growth which
Los Angeles is making, the limit of
her present water supply is in sight.
If sufficient supply can be obtained,
1t now seems probable that at no dis
tant day almost the entire costial plain
between Los Angeles and Santa Moni-
ca, the area between Pasadena and
Los Angeles, and the area east of
Pasadena for some miles, will be thick
ly inhabited. 1t will become the Amer
lean Riviera. The limiting factor will
largely be the water supply.

pie who wish to escape the rigors and

vert along the ditch any flow that
might pass down said channel. These
bitches might be constructed from 800
to 1000 feet apart, and the water al
lowed to fill them and flow over at such
times as the supply was more than
the gravel in and above the bitches
would consume. Under this condition
we would have a series of bitches, one
lying below the other, the upper ditch
catching the water first and the ground
under it's influence taking as much of
the water as possible, the balance
passing on to the next seriatim, until
the whole supply disappeared within
the gravel mass.
Must Refit Gravel Beds
The speaker in closing desired to
impress upon the water managers of
Southern California 1.-The necessity of
immediate action looking to the refill
ing of the gravel beds from which they
have been pumping excessively the past
two or three years. Much has been
said and written about the depletion
of these underground reservoirs, while
the writer's solution stands as the only
remedy yet offered looking to the re-
storation of these gravels. At no time
in the history of Southern California
has there been question of more
vital Importance than this, nor one to
which Southern California will owe
more of its material permanency and
progress, and the money spent in the
systematic distribution of the water
over the debris cones and gravel beds
will aid in not only maintaining the
supply of the necessary fluid, but, if
prosecuted energetically will result in
again raising the water level, thereby
materially reducing the pumping life
and cost of pumping operations from
year to year. Further, the limit of
reclamation and development of arid
lands here has been reached, with a
few exceptions, if the systematic re-
charging of the gravel beds is not con-
summated.
"A coordinate factor with flood con-
servation in the water problem is the
