WEIGHTY STEERS

speeIal to The Republican.

Special to The Republican.
South Omaha, Neb., March 2S.-Clay,
Robinson & Co. thus summarize the
market situation in this city:
The supply of hay-fed cattle has been
moderate the past week. The inquiry
has been good, more especially for the
heavy weight steers for feeding pur-
poses. These have been selling strong
during the week and are selling now
fully as high as at any time during the
past two or three weeks. Some very
good heavy feeders have sold around
$4.65, with pretty good class at $40
and $3.50, and fair to good kinds at
$415 and $4.35. The light and medium
weight steers have also shown some
improvement during the week, and are
now selling within 10 and Is cent as
high as they were ten days ago. The
better classes in these weights are
selling at $4.15 and $40; fair to good
kinds, $3.75 and 81.
Killing Steers Scarce.
There have been but few good steers
here suitable for killing purposes, and
while the corn-fed cattle market is Is
and 20 cents lower than one week ago,
no doubt good hay-fed killing steers
would sell pretty close to recent fig
ures, owing to the sharp competition
from feeder buyers IN anything of this
sort. Good to choice killing steers are
quotable at $3.50 and Sass; fair to
good, $40 and $4.7O. The butcher
stock market has been only moderately
supplied and prices have held up wei
for anything of this sort. Good kinds
of COWS and heifers are quotable al
$3.50 and $3.S5, although something
choice would no doubt bring right at 81.
Good Summer Prices in Sight.
We have considerable faith in the
cattle market a little later on. From
all reports the supply of corn-fed cat
tie will be light during the early sum-
mer, and believe May and June will
witness good strong prices for all de
sirable killing cattle. Believe there
will be a better inquiry develop as it
comes nearer time TO fill pastures, and
no doubt beef prices will warrant ev.
en- stronger fSurco for hoavy feshy
feeders 10 summer through and feet
out the coming winter.

Secretary Coburn's Report Says That the
State Has 1873 Towns With Over
1000 Population.

Topeka. Sept. CT. d. Coburn, Sec
rotary of the state board of agricul-
ture, has compiled the population fig
ures for the towns and cities Of the
state and has found that there were
1913 which had a population of 1000
or more. This is an increase of eight
over the list compiled year ago.
The reports says:
The compilation of statistics now
going on under the supervision of Sec
rotary Coburn reveals that SO NUM-
cipalities show an aggregate gain Of
1886, and q show an aggregate de-
crease of 1922. Oakland enters the
list this year as a newly incorporated
town and last figures of population
are used for Atchison owing to the
failure of the county clerk to make
any return.
Kansas City shows the largest in
crease, 1929, followed by Wichita
with a gain of 4,43l, Topeka 4,245,
Parsons 1858, Coffeyville, 1921 and

William T. Cobb of Rockland, repub.
ican, standing on a platform devoted
almost exclusively to a continuance
Of the prohibitory law of the state
was reelected Monday by plurality
of less than 5000, with but few ex-
ceptions the smallest margin of votes
ever given a republican governor in
the state Of Maine.
Cyrus w. Davis of Waterville, the
democratic candidate for governor,
poled one of the largest votes in the
history Of the party in this state. His
issue in the campaign was the re-sub-
mission of the liquor question, which
was incorporated in the state con-
stitution four years ago.
More interesting from a certain
standpoint was the reelection of Con-
gresham Charles E. Littlefield, re-
publican. from the second district,
by greatly reduced plurality. Con-
gresham Littleflelds candidacy was
the subject of bitter opposition on
the part Of Samuel Gompers, presi-
dent Of the American Federation OF
Labor, who asked for his defeat on
the grounds that he had voted against
certain labor measures at the last
session Of congress.

Great Night for the Onion.

The onion has served as the basis
for many quips and filings at the hands
Of the humorous photographers. And
yet 1t is an extremely wholesome plant
and one of high rank with the ancients,
particularly the early Egyptians. For
these reasons 1t is pleasant to note
that the tabooed edible met with de,
served recognition at what was termed
an onion reception and banquet in an
interior New York town called Union,
which in this case might plausibly
seem corruption of onion. 1t was ar
ranged, says the Cleveland Plain Deal
err, in honor of the sixteenth ami
versary of the special guests OF the
evening and the onion was the center
and scenter of attraction. The house
was decorated with onion blossoms,
an onion center piece graced the table
and the bill of fare included onions
and onions only-top onions, sliced
onions, stewed onions, onion salad and
fried onions. Needless to say, the
guests, who departed at late hour,
went away breathing many encom'
Iums of the fragrant bulb of honor.
