Kansas CITY Stock Market.

Stock Yards, Kansas City, MoSMay
Especial about three-fourths of
the cattle supply of $4,000 head here
last week sold shade higher than
during the previous week The mar
ket weakened the last days of the
week, and closed about steady with
close of the previous week. on killing
cattle. Stocker and feeder trade was
dull and unsatisfactory to sellers all
week. the best kinds declining 10 to
IS cents. others is to % cents off,
rev buyers appeared who wanted
choice stuff, and picked around to- get
It,. paying steady prices therefor. To-
ed to 24O cars, not quite as many as
during the previous week, and the
hold over at the end Of the week was
larger, 1900 cattle remaining in, the
pens, including one shipment of Pan
handle yearlings that were not shown
Saturday; they sold today at $40.
The cattle run Monday was 1000
recent Monday. indicating reduced
total for the week, and a stronger
market. Prices are steady ac-
count Of the adverse condition at Chi
cago, heavy run and 10 cents lower
prices there. Traders here look for a
dull business the next few weeks. and
material declines. particularly if athe
supply of country kinds holds up.
However, on the other hand, the light
run Monday may be the forerunner of
reduced supplies of killing cattle, in
which event higher prices for them
are assured. which will stimulate de-
mand for stockers and feeders. Feed
ers range from $500 to $4.75, stockers
$3.50 to $3.50. Practically no cattle
were received here from remote states
last week. and supply from this source
is likely to be small for some weeks.
Sam Keterman of Ottumwa, Iowa,
arrived at the yards Monday for
the purpose of looking the horse and
mule market over. Mr.. Keterman is
an old horse trader and dealer who
handles a great many horses. Kan
sas City is certainly a great horse and
mule center" he remarked, after look
ing the barns over. This horse and
mule business puzzles the oldest of
the horse. dealers and raisers. A few
years ago when electricity took the
place of the horses and mules used on
the street cars in the cities, we
thought that would cripple the horse
and mule breedingA business. Then
came along the bicycle, which was
very extensively used in the cities.
The last straw, however was the au-
tomobile. That was supposed to be
the one means of transportation that
would end the horse. But the price Of
horses and mules keeps going on up
higher. There is an increased demand
for all kinds of horses, both the COM
mon and the fancy. and mules are as
good as gold anywhere"
