The man eating custom was not merely Cul-

MARKET LETTER

Special Correspondence.
Kansas City. Mo. July 16.-The lib
eral cattle receipts last week, 10000
head. were made up principally OF
quarantine cattle, 10000 head, and fed
natives and westerns, the proportion
of grass stuff being comparatively
small. The same conditions rule to-
day as to the makeup of the 1000
head received, 4500 guarantees, the
balance largely fed stu Grass cat
tie are two or three weeks late this
season, but such as have been here
have been of letter quality than usual
at the opening of the season. Fed
stuff neld steady to strcng last week,
and is strong today grass cattle 10
20c over last week. but steady to
strong today The supply today is
several thousand below expectations,
any buyers lave 20 ride hard to fill
their orders. Some of the Conner cat
tie from Lamar, -olo. scld al $3.50 to
day, whicn was not as good as their
shipment last week. The Lockhart
steers from Sugar City sold at SJ.2o
and $3.50 today. against $5.35 on last
Monday. Stockers and feeders gained
10 to 10 cents last week, on account
of the scarcity and an increasing de-
mand each week. They are steady to-
day, sales being mainly at y5.35 to
$500. Neals closed last week so 10
75c higher, and have put on another
quarter today. Several cars of Pan
handle veals brought S5.i5 to $625 to-
day. Cows sold lower last week, but
are in stTJng demand todav. Panhan-
die cows brough. 81 60 to So; New
Mexico bulls. 1925 to 81. 40.
LamDs and muttons have regained
about all of the loss suffered in the re-
cent break, and the market has a
strong tone. Supplies were small last
week after Monday, and the run to-
day is only 4,s00 head; market strong.
Arizona wethers. 100 pounds, sold at
So today, and 65-pound Arizona spring
lambs brought 81. >, a quarter more
than they brought last Monday. Top
spring lambs today brought $S. Utah
grass wethers. 50 pounds, the first of
the season and not very good, sold
last week at $3.50; Texas muttons to-
day, $3.50; goats, 1925 to $3.50, and
some stuff to the country lately at
