MARKET LETTER
From Our Regular Kansas City
Stock Yards Correspondent

Kansas City Stock yards, Nov, ;
The cattle supply dropped
down to 90, 900 head last week,
including 5000 calves, the small.
est week in more than two
months, or since the heavy fall
business started. The market
advanced 10 to 2oc first OF the
week, out was weak afterwards,
closing with all of the advance
lost. a smaller demand for
meats caused packers TO reduce
the wholesale price in an effort
To stimulate trade, and buyers
we're Indifferent for that reason.
Another thing. heavy receipts
OF partly finished corn fed steers
especially at Chicago, had a bad
effect. The principal decrease
in the receipts lately has been
in the item of grass cattle from
Kansas pastures. which r now
about ali in, or gone into feed
lots. The run today is 5000
head. market 5 to l. higher. No
prime steers have been iuclud-
ed lately; top last week 81,
nothing that good here today,
fair to good fed steers S. to
So 80, grass steers S3.50to 81. rs,
grass COWS s. 75 to 1918, fed
cows up to SIPS, helfers s.,
bulls 50 % to $3.50. Calves are
% to SOC higher than a week
ago, at $3.50 to 81. More than
700 car loads of stock and iced
ing cattle went t. the country
IRON here last week, and the
hold over Saturday was the
smallest since the fall season
set IN. Prices softened sllgtltly
after the middle of last week, as
wners were afraid of the effect
of election day, and offered con-
ceSsionS in order to make a
good clearance. Stockers are
selling at S2.75 to S4. 25, feeders
SO. IS to $3.50, a few choice feed
ers as high as $3.50.
The hog market huctuates
mildly, receipts still liberal, at
81, ZOO head last week. The
supply for October was 80 per
cent greater than same month
last year. The large proportion
of light hogs is having the
effect of reducing production of
lard and salt pork, and will
eventually put a premium on
heavy hogs. Run is 5000 mar.
ket 5 to 10 higher, top S5.97;
pigs at So s. to $500.
Sheep and lambs are still
coming pretty freely from the
range country but a small per-
centage of the receipts r fat
enough for the killers, and
prices are accordingly stronger,
Is to 80 cents higher last week.
Run today is liberal at 1000.
market steady. Country
demand is heavy and prices are
about steady with last week,

A BEAUTIFUL WEDDING
Guy P.CreenWald and Blanche Mad
dox United in Marriage

oul pOVli0 az NV 1stSN' Nv
Montpelier Evening Herald says
in part:
a wedding Of notable interest
and handsome appointments
occurred at the home OF Mrs. S.
Il. Maddox on West Huntington
street, when her beautiful and
accomplished daughter, Miss
Blanche Violet was claimed in
marriage by Mr. Guy p. Green
wald, a prominent young ban
ker of Falls City, Neb. More
than one hundred guests, includ-
ing relatives and friends of the
two families were present at the
brilliant event.
Miss Ethel Bonge at the piano
announced that the appointed
hour, eight o'clock was APP
preaching, by playing MendelS-
sohn's wedding march and the
members of the bridal party
slowly descended the stairway
10 its sweet strains.
The party was beaded by little
Misses Margaret Brackin and
Lucy Hanratty the ribbon bear
ers who carried the long white
satin ribbons from the landing
in the hall, through the front
parlor in the living room and
formed an aisle for the remain
der of the bridal party. Both
were dressed in white and wore
pink sahes and ribbon hair bows.
Following them was the otficiat-
ing minister, Rev. Myers, pastor
of the Methodist church, the
groom and his best man, Mr..
Isaac Lyon of Falls City, Neb.,
walking together, little Miss
Elizabeth Kelley, the ring bear
er, dressed in white, with pink
hair bow and sash and carrying
two gold circlets in a basket of
flowers, the maid of honor, Miss
Grace Maddox, then the bride
learning on the arm of her I'M
Gle, w. M. Maddox and lastly
the mother of the bride.
Upon reaching the ceremony
room, the members of the party
took their respective places In
the bay window, banked with
tall palms, over which was a
canopy of smilax, studded with
white chrysanthemums and pink
carnations. Here Rev. Myers
read the beautiful Methodist
Episcopal ring service, and the
ceremony was most impressive
as the bride and groom knelt on
satin cushions before the minis
ter, while he invoked the devine
blessing. The bride vas given
away by her uncle and the dou-
bic ring ceremony, in which the
groom places the wedding ring
on the finger of the bride and
she in turn places a gold band
on his finger, was used. During
the ceremony, the music was
changed to Schubert's serenade.
The bride was charming in an
exquisite lace robe fashioned
over tatfeta and she wore a long
tulle veil fastened with lilies of
the valley and carried a boquet
of orchids and valley lilies.
The maids dress was white
silk m~ousseline m a semi.
princess, and trimmed with pink
satin bands and she carried
pink chrysanthemums. II h e
brides mother wore a net robe
over lavender, while Mrs. Green
valid, mother of the groom, wore
cream messaline silk.
The gifts to the bridal couple
we're numerous and handsome,
among them being Ivers & Pond
baby grand piano in mahogany
case, from the grooms parents,
beautiful set of solid silverware
from the brides mother and
and sister, and many presents of

The lighthouse, which has so long
held a cherished place In the lore Of
the sea as well as position of vital
importance In navigation. Is In immi-

with cereals. This years report con
tains the following in regard to the
most productive varieties Of spring
wheat and the earliest varieties. Ex-
Guiding the durum wheats. the follow
ing varieties of wheat have shown un-
usual productiveness for series of
years on this farm Central. Ottawa:
Preston, Pringle's Champlain. Huron,
Herisson Bearded and Bishop. The
first four of these are red Wheats with
bearded heads Bishop Is white
wheat and is beardless. or the five
varieties Pringle's Champlain is prob
ably the best for the production of
strong -four
Somewhat lower in yield, but su-
perior In the strength of their -four,
are Red Fern (bearded). Red Fife
(beardlessJ and White Fife (beardless)
Several very early varieties of spring
wheat are being grown on this farm,
but they are not at present recon-
mended for general cultivation. Farm
ers should remember that extreme ear
lineSs is frequently associated with
rather small yield, short straw, liabili-
ty to rust or some other defect to
which the more vigorous wheats are
less subject.
The earliest wheats which are as yet
included in the regular distribution of
seed grain from this farm are Prin-
gle's Champlain, Preston. Huron, STAN
ley and Percy. These are all some
what earlier than Red Fife. Stanley
and Percy are beardless Sorts
The practical identity Of the -four
made from White Fife wheat with that
produced from Red Fife wheat has
been established. 1t has also been
shown that these two varieties produce
-four of the very highest baking
strength.
Among the winter wheats it has been
shown that Turkey Red yields -four of
quite remarkable strength, very little
inferior to Red Fife.
