PROFITABLE YEAR.
Stock Business Satisfactory Though Shipping
Hampered by Lack Of Transportation FacIi-
ties. Quality Improved by Raising Native
Cattle. Small. North Dakota Herds Fed on
North Dakota Corn Soon to Replace Grass
Fed Range Stock

Commenting on the live stock market
for 1906, Frank Brainerd, veteran brand
inspector, says it has been the best in
the history of the industry. "While
prices in the early part of the season of
1902 reached high water mark, in Oc-
tober and November of that year range
men were all but giving their stuff away.
This season the market opened high,
had weak spot in the middle, but is
closing at the highest point. Where
results are compiled averages will be
found to be the highest on record"
Striking an accurate average being
an impossibility, the only gauge is the
price of estray cattle which pass through
brand inspectors hands. Until the sea-
son is completed the average cannot be
stru:k, but Inspector Brainerd estimates
it as $40 per head higher than last year
and the highest since the industry was
established. Chicago will receive about
$4,000 cattle this season." he said:
+ "Prices have averaged 50 cents per hum
dred higher than last year, and the cat
tie have weighed 100 pounds more. This
means an appreciation of at least $40
per head over 1905 prices or 100000
more remitted to the shipper than last
year. But many have exceeded the So
cent appreciation. know of one drove
that brought only 1915 last year, but
went over the scales this season at s5.15.
They were North Dakotas and of ex-
actly the same brand. An improved
market was responsible for some of this
81 advance, but most of it was repre-
sented by quality"
With the exception of a few weeks in
September and the early part of October,
when supply was too heavy, prices ruled
satisfactory all through the season. A
range of 81 and S has taken most of the
grassers, the spread being 1915 and
$6 Is. About as many cattle sold below
81 as above S. Cows changed hands
largely at s3.25 and s4.25 and feeders at
$3.50 and s4.25.
Range receipts in recent years for the
entire season have heen.

been SO satisfactory that every incentive
to liquidate what the market did not call
for was obviated.
But one discordant note is heard. Sat-
isfaction has been marred by wretched
and wholly inadequate transportation
facilities. The sidetrack has claimed a
larger slice of the cattlemans profits
than ever before and he has paid toll
tor the tonnage system in the shape of
values "evaporated through the Stats of
the Car" to an amount in the aggregate
that cannot be computed with any de-
gree of accuracy. Railroad service has
been as deficient as market conditions
were satisfactory.
Loading points once prominent have
been blotted off the map so far as cattle
trade is concerned. Settlement of the
South Dakota range west of the Mis-
souri, river and erection of fences has
stopped driving to Pierre and Chamber
lain and practically no cattle were loaded
there this year. Railroad construction
has been proceeding at rapid pace
across the South Dakota range toward
the Black Hills and many cattle reached
market in better condition than had they
been driven to the Missouri river.
And what of the future? Those in the
trade who manifest an ability to peer
into it see no diminution of cattle pro-
duction in what is known as the range
country, but new era is already here.
The much advertised period of transit
ton has been passed almost impercep-
tibly. Big outfits have all but cleaned
up; the southern stocker no longer
moves northward by the hundred thou
sand every spring but the man with the
small herd is rapidly establishing HIM
self. Where the sheep can subsist the
steer must 60, but there will be plenty of
scope for the cattleman. Probably 1906
has Witnessed the last big summer move
ment; distribution will be the tendency
hereafter and an all-the-year-round sup
ply will be better suited to the needs
of the trade.-[Breeders Gazette.

The prosecution Of the Standard Oil
Company under the Sherman antitrust
ect has awakened great deal of Interest
in Washington, especially in vies of At
torney General Mood,'s statement that
he believes he can push the prosecution
to successful conclusion. The iiHesti
CATIONS Of tile Bureau of Corporations
during the past two years have made it
seem plain enough to the average citizen
that the Standard Oil Company has heen
''caught with the goods, aud the only
wonder is that the Attorne, General las
not included criminal prosecution, as
well as civil, in his Indictment. There is
little question that criminal prosecution
would be justified aud 1t is believed that
, it could be made to stick. But it is
thought that tlIe moral effect of winning
the civil suit will be enough to force the
Standard vi Company out Uf its monopo-
listie existence aud frighten its moving
spirits into pIa, ing fair with the public
and the independent dealers lest worse
thing befall them.

TWO BUMPS ARE
BURGLARY CLUES
Housebreaker Meets Up with Man
I. with Handy Nerve and
Weapon.

Somewhere in Minneapolis there is a
burglar with two large bumps on his
head, also the police are studying
phrenology. The bumps were raised
last night when the burglar attempted
to rob the residence Of Levi Lamson
1915 Mary place, and was caught IN
the act.
Mr.. Lamson was working in the
backyard, and as he walked around to
the side Of the house he saw a man re.
moving the screen from one Of the win,
dows. He ran up and asked the strang-
er. what he wanted. The burglar re.
piled that he lived there and was tax
ing off the screens for the winter. Lam
son, angered by the mans nerve
jumped for him and got a singing
blow in the face.
Instead of running, the burglar stood
his ground for a moment, long enough
to allow Mr.. Lamson to pick up a
2x4 scantling about eight feet long
Lamson brought this down on the in.
truder's head with a powerful stroke
and the maurauder went to his knees
Again Lamson swung the unwieldy
weapon and brought it down with the
same force, but the second blow seemed
to rally the housebreaker and he rar
thru the back yard and escaped. Lam
son attempted to overtake him, but the
man was able to disappear in the dark
ness.
