Doinr Il Good Work.

Mr.. James Henry Rice, as repre-
sentative Of the Audubon Society. is
doing good work which ought to
be encouraged by all who believe in
protecting our game and other birds.
The wanton slaughter Of game birds
by hunters and the killing OF song
birds by the small boy should be
stopped at all hazards. There are
not so many mocking birds as there
were twenty years ago, and every
thing should be done to encourage
the nesting and raising of young
birds by these sweet singers which
have always been one or the chorlns
of orr Southland.

It is rumored that the finances OF
the county are in bad shape and tnat
the deficiency is very large. AS there

last campaign that the county was
free of debt and everything was IN

now as heavily in debt as reported
the people should know how it came
about and who is responsible. If is

Live Stock Market.

KANSAS Cry, Nov. q, 1905
The cattle run this week has been
very light, less than 10000 head,
and prices have advanced in a
sensational manner, especially to-
day. The general market is 30 to
90 cents above a week ago, and the
feature sale of the week was made
today on train of Colorado cattle
from Burns, on the Moffat Line,
shipment OF J. A. Edge. Steers in
this shipment weighing 1868
pounds sold at $465, lighter steers,
$50 pounds, at $4.15, 900 pounds
heifers $500 to $500. All Of these
prices are highest Of the season,
and extremely satisfactory to the
shipper. Other sales of Colorado
stockers this week have ranged
from $3.50 to $415, cows at So 40
to $500. The fact that Kansas
pastures are not contributing any
thing to receipts, and also that the
run OF quarantine grass cattle is
over, forces packers to direct their
attention to grass cattle from the
distant range country, and good
markets are anticipated from now
on. Panhandle offerings nave
sold in line with Colorados for
stockers and feeders, panhandle
md New Mexico COWS at $500 TO
$3.50, bulls $3.50 to $3.50, calves
$3.50 to 1913.
Sheep and lamb are coming
pretty freely, but the proportion of
stuff suitable for the killers is
growing smaller each week, and
prices on same are stronger accord
lugly, market Is to % cents higher
this week, lambs to killers at 1925
to 1913, yearlingS today up to
% 80, wethers $50, ewes 1926,
from the range country. While
the offerings of thin stock is
heavier, the demand is sufficient to
take everything at steady to firm
prices, lambs around 81 go, wethers
and yearlirgs SO SO to 1890, stock
ewes 1925 to $500, breeding ewes
up to $425
