editor Of the Rocky Mountain Hus-
bandman. Or Mr.. Finch must have
placed j. A. Bring, wheat buyer for
the McCaull- W ebster Elelevator COM
pany of Judith Gap, who has been
buying wheat nearly all his live, I'M
der a hypnotic spell when he induced
him to issue check for $40 for the
grain, and forced him to say that it
was the finest sample of hard wheat
he had ever seen. This transaction
was all myth, because nothing can
be raised in this inhospitable section
without irrigation, according to the
learned gentleman who sits in the
editorial chair of the Rocky Noun
tain IIusbandman at Great Falls and
dishes up dope calculated to drive
people out of the state who are trying
to develop the country, rather than
to help make Montana the greatest
farming country in the world, Great
Falls the greatest milling center, and
the Rocky Mountain Ilusbandman the
greatest agricultural paper III the
Union.
The writer has not lived in Mon
tana for thirty-fOur years, but he has
been here long enough to watch the
golden grain pouring out of the
threshing machines during two seas
Ons. The first season he came to i'll
vestigate, because he was as skeptical
as the Sutherlins. lie staid III the
field long enough to satisfy himself
that the piece Of land he saw threshed
averaged sixty-tive bushels to the
acre OF the finest hard wheat he ever
saw-and he came from Il hard wheat
state. This crop was raised without
irrigation. And when the neighbour
ing farmers told him that their wheat
went from 10 to IS bushels to the acre
by dry farming that year, he believed
it, because he had satisfied himself
from personal observation and accur-
ate measurements before he had Il
talk with them. The Sutherlins, evil
IDENTIFY, stuck pretty close to their
sumptiOus sanctum that year, because
facts CLEANED from personal observa-
tions in the field would have upset
their deep-rooted theories. The writer
remained in the Judith Gap country
and knew from personal knowledge
that the next season was dry wfully
dry. lie was prepared to believe the
old timers when they told him that it
was the dryest year in twenty. He
again visited the threshing machines
when they got busy last fall, and sat
listed himself that notwithstanding
the season was the dryest in twenty,
that fields were running from Is to b
bushels Of No. hard winter wheat
to the acre. And this without irri-
CATION. Nobody in this section of the
country, however, saw either of the
Sutherlins during threshing season,
and yet these gentlemen pretend to

stockxard Notes.

Buyers are still complaining of the
dullness of the beef trade and declare
that the heavy cuts are almost I'M
salable. The apathetc feeling seems
to be prevalent all over the country
and it is as difficult to sell beef in
Chicago as In New York.
There Is a diminished outlet for
dressed meat for exports. and conse-
uuently the needs OF buyers are light.
1t will take little while for the pub
lie to get reconciled to the high price
Of beef and no material advance is ex-
pected for some time.
Small supplies of stock heifers ar
irving these days.
There is small supply of desirable
feeders in dealers pens and prices are
again on a firm basis.

But for eastern orders the hog mar

very plentiful in the country.
There is a marked disposition IN
beef making circles to ignore the dis

in the same humor. They seem conf
dent of high prices for the next few
months but thereafter the outlook Is

Suckers and Feeders.

Good-weight kinds ruled highest in
r.any months, and there was scar
city of them However, the country
buyers were not enthusiastic over the
top classes, since prices for these have
assembled to an extremely high point.
Numerous prospective buyers are awry
of bidding for the high-priced kinds,
fearing that with corn at the ruling
rigl figures it will prove bad invest
ment to buy the $5.25@5.50 and higher
steers to feed. However, there has
Teen enough demand for the top kinds
to clear arrivals of such classes during
the past week. Killers have competed
for them and got good share of the
run, paying better prices than the
country buyers.

Senator kittredge is chairman of the
committee on Panama canal. His
most distinguished service on that
committee was the great fight he
made for the sea-level type of canal.
He insistentE favored this measure,
and stood by his guns after the admin
istration had come out strongly for the
lock type Secretary Taft had to make
it a personal matter with senator's, go
ing on the senate floor to organize
sentiment in favor of the lock ditch,
and defeating kittredge's sea-levei
proposal only by the narrowest mar
gin.
Senator Warner of Missouri is in the
uncomfortable position of being
pledged to stand for whatever Presi-
dent Roosevelt wants. 1t seemed good
when the senator gave the assurance
to his people at home that he would
support the presidents policies; but IT
has its difficult aspects
just now, for instance, the president
is trying to force on congress a blll
to revise the anti trust law, and Mis-
souri, is long way from friendly to
the measure. 1t was first introduced in
the house by Mr.. Hepburn of Iowa,
who likewise is pledged to stand by the
president When the matter of it's in
PRODUCTION in the senate came up the
business was assigned to Senator WAR
ner He presented it, and his Mis-
souri, supporters-and opponents
have ever since been demanding that
they be shown.
1t appears that the Hepburn War
ner bill is not viewed with equanim1ty
in Missouri, and even the fact that
the president is for it has not been
enough to convince the critics that it Is
good legislation They have been read
ing about it., and have been getting
suspicious that the president may for
once have made mistake. They don't
think it is the sort of legislation they
want their senator to favor.
Senator Warner has been a White
House senator ever since he took his
seat. He was the first senator whom
the republicans have elected in Mis-
souri, for many years, and was chosen
only at the close of long and appar-
entity hopeless fight. Naturally. he
wants to come back to the senate, ana
he would do so If Missouri should elect
a republican legislature again at the
right time But just now the connec-
ton of his name with this ANTITRUST
legislation is causing the, senator the
necessity of doing a volume of ex-
planning which is occupying about all
his snare time,

Buyers Inclined Toward Bear.
ishness, But Sellers Prevented
Raid OH Values
HOG MARKET TEN LOWER
Momentary Show Of Strength at op-
enins Had Little Effect, as Demand
Was Very Tame, Sheep Prices
Slightly Better at Start, But Weaker
Feeling Caused by Large Offerings.

Chicago, April 22-Cattle were slow
but steady, on light and medium.
Heavy steers were weak, and butchers
were steady. Receipts We're more lib
eral than expected Buyers were in
clined to be bearish, but sellers We're
firm and prevented a raid on values.
Improvement in the general situation
as compared with last week is crafty
ing to the sellers. 1t has been brought
about chiefly by the continued light
runs and present indications point to
probable small receipts in the next
few weeks. Evidence of shortage in
feed lots is apparent on all sides, and
since the beef trade has picked up d
little there are few who believe killers
will be able to run a bear campaign
again very soon.
One drawback to the market is the
small demand on export account. but
with continuation of light runs 1t would
appear that the trade can hardly be as
badly affected by small export inquiry
in the near future, as was the case IN
the past two weeks, when the local and
eastern demand was also down to
small volume.
The west is being lightly supplied
with "attle. and this is a hopeful sign
OF probable good prices remaining in
force.
Hogs.
Hogs We're demoralized and 10 cents
lower. There was momentary show
of strength at the opening, but it had
little effect. Demand was very tame.
Shecp.
Sheep were steady to 10 cents lower
Prices were slightly better at the start,
but large offerings brought about a
weaker feeling.
