to raise the ordinary western cayuse.
The beauty about draft horse is
that from the time ne is three years
old he will pay for his keep, and as
soon as he is five or * years old, an6
well broken, if he has received the at
tention that any other crop of the farm
or ranch receives, he will sell in the
market at large profit, besides hav-
ing paid for his keep.
The farmers of the Dakotas, Iowa,
Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois have
learned by long experience that there
is a great revenue in the raising of heavy
draft horses which have behind them
the pedigree of scientific horse breed
ing. They have found that these we'll
bred horses cost them no more and
probably less than would a horse which
was under bred. The result is that
today they are receiving large amounts
of money from the Pacific coast coun-
try which should really be going into
the purses of those men who are de-
veloping the great Pacific states.
Another little point which perhaps
is being sadly neglected on the part
of the western farmer and stockmen is
the care he gives the good draft horse
which he does raise A great many are
inclined to let their well-bred stock
grow up in a more or less haphazard
sort of way. I recently visited a small
town in the state of Washington and
while there drove out to the country
to call on a rancher. In response tt
my inquiry if he had anything for sale
he said: Eyes, I have two or three
pretty good draft horses" When
asked him if he would show them to me
he replied: Yes, they are up there in
the field by a strawstack." When
saw them, I found that their hair was
an inch to two inches long, and the
horses very thin, giving them a very
rough appearance; in fact, such an ap-
pearance as would not permit them to
demand in the market a price within
perhaps $500 of what a similar horse
raised by an eastern farmer would have
commanded in our market, simply be-
cause they had not been properly cared
for. draft horse is very much like an
athlete. 1t must receive very careful
attention and must be kept at all times
in the pink of condition; if it is so
kept it will bring with ease a great
profit to its owner. I personally would
be glad to see every farmer in the Pa
cific coast country enthusiastic over
raising high class stock, and I would
be glad also to give to every reader
of The Ranch the benefit of any expert
ence which I may have gained from
my twenty-five years in the Seattle
horse market. 1 realize fully that here
is a phenomenal opportunity for a
great source of revenue to the western
farmer which is not by any means re-
ceiving the consideration to which it
is entitled.

STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Depression Due to Bad Outlook for
 worlds Crops.

New York. May 14.-The securities markets of the world were more or less depressed to-day and it seemed clear that the immediate compelling cause was the bad outlook for the world s crops. This diagnosis is not necessari- ly discredited by the fact that stocks rose In New York yesterday when wheat jumped and that the reaction In the wheat market to-day was accompan-
 jed by decline in stocks. Technical speculative conditions may be advanc- ed in explanation of these eontradie-
 tory movements. Besides the special operations in yesterdays stock market designed to sustain or lift prices it was evident that an outstanding short in- terest was seeking to take advantage Of the bad crop news to cover short contracts. The fact that their cover ing operations were effective in lifting prices was significant of the narrow speculative interest in the present stock market. On the other hand, to- days reaction in the wheat market was attributed in large part to the heavy selling to take profits induced by the recent extensive advance in the price of wheat. This reaction did not serve entirely to relieve apprehension over the crop prospects. The large shortage in the winter wheat crop already indi- cated makes the spring wheat seeding a matter of paramount interest in the forming of opinion in the markets. The weather news from the spring wheat regions to-day indicated continued tenn

FORTUNES WON IN CHICAGO.
Many Men Quietly Unload Wheat at the
 High Prices.

Chicago, May IA Many men took small fortunes from the board of trade to-day by quietly unloading wheat at the highest prices made possible by yesterdays extraordinary bull move nent The pit, however, was less spec tacular than it was yesterday, and the gallery, crowded to its utmost capacity by visitors of both sexes, waited in vain for the pandemonium which existed for hours yesterday, December wheat touched dollar for a single sale at the opening, but promptly retreated from this conspicuous position. The profit taking movement carried July down to 93 3-4 cents and December to 97 cents. The reduced level of prices induced a wave of new buying near the close. Under this influence prices re- bounded sharply and the close, consid- ering recent violent fluctuations, show ed but a slight change from yesterdays final figures.
 July closed unchanged at 95 5-8 @ S-4; September 3-8 S 1-2 down at 97 1-S & IA, and December with similar drop at 9S 5-S e 3-4. The volume of busi- ness done was heavy Roard member ships which recently found no buyers at $1S00, were easily salable at $2;50O to-day.
 Tn the past generally speaking when there has been shortage of wheat in the west there has been plenty in the east, and vice versa, but this year both are bad and naturally the, price goes uS.
 The representative of large Ru- manian dealer informed The Associated Press that when he left Rumania some weeks ago the outlook was bad and that hls advices fully confirmed the de- presson of the situation He further said that unless rain fell very shortly the spring crop would be ruined and the export of wheat would be prohib- tied.
 A dispatch received here from Mel bourne, Victoria, this evening said that the wheat market there was strong and that prices had advanced five cents.

perature deaciencies. The violent de- cline in Canadian Pacific was traceable to this cause. That stock also reflected the depressed conditions on foreign se- curities markets. owing to the large volume of it in foreign hands. The money outlook is not considered clear. owing to the large prospective require ments for capital. Foreign discounts continued to harden to-day, but money rates here were inclined to ease from the recent frmness. This was partly due to the failure of confirmation of reports current yesterday that the sec- retary of the treasury planned an early withdrawal of an installment of the government funds on deposit with the facts added to the general influence of the poor crop outlook. One of these was the extension of the longshore- mems strike in New York. Another was the tendency to extend the recent discussion of defective steel rails into the field of other railway equipment, especially car wheels. Some attention "oo 6lfel dlso to q ueclslOH yesterday by the supreme court which affirms the power of the interstate commerce com mission to prohibit and increase the freight rates by change of cassifca- tion; a method much relied on by the railroad companies for raising charges for traffic.

It was current rumor that good portion of the 100000 shares of stock covered up by the bear crowd late Monday and yesterday was supplied by the western houses who are pulling wheat and taking short position on stocks. This they have been doing for several days, though much less aggres- sive in stocks than in grain.

The affinity of wheat and stock prices meant nothing except the work of the smaller professionals trying to secure the nimble dollar. In other words as it has been well put, when the outside investor is absent from the market, and when even the professional has run breathlessly over to the Produce Exchange, 1t does not require great skill or power to move the hands of the clock either forward of backward from their proper place.

CatarrE


The question having been raised as
to whether or no Fred D. Pierce will
refund the money if Hyomei outfit
does not do all that is claimed for it
in curing catarrh, he wants TO state
positively that this guarantee is an
absolute fact.
A guarantee like this is the best.
proof that. can be offered as to the
curative powers of Hyomei in all
catarrhal troubles. You do not risk
a cent in testing its healing virtues,
Fred D. Pierce takes all the risk.
If you have catarrh, try this won
terful medicated air of Hyomei. It
does not drug or derange the stomach,
but is breathed through neat pocket
inhaler that comes with every outfit,
SO that its medication reaches the
most remote air cells in the nose
throat and lungs, where any catar
rhal germs may be lurking. It quickly
destroys them, heals and soothes the
irritated mucous membrane and
vitalizss the tissues SO that catarrh is
no longer possible. You can lose
nothing by giving Hyomei trial,
nothing but the catarrh and that is
good radiance.
The price of the complete outfit is
S1OO; nothing if it fails to cure. Get
an outfit from Fred d. Pierce to-day
and begin its use at once.
