WEEKLY LIVE STOCK REPORT

kinds, however, owing to their more
plentiful numbers, were merely
steady sale. Top beeves for the week
$40 and summit for heifers $5.15.
Both of these sales were made by
Clay, Robinson & Co. The s6.4O
steers included Sc of the j. b. Ken
drick Wyomings, averaging AGO lbs.
Bulk steers sold at $4.75 to 1915

to 4,75.
LAMB PRICES IN DECLINE
Receipts of sheep and lambs last
week 1O5, 900, as against 1O5, 900 the
previous week and 125, 900 the CORES
ponding week of last year. Includ-
ed in the total arrivals was a large
proportion and prices for both fat
and feeder offerings declined 10 to
15c. Sheep and yearlings, however,
owing to their small proportions,
sold generally 10c higher, although
the feeder yearlings advanced Is to
25c. Bulk of lambs made $7.15 to
$50, most yearlings $5.25 to $50 and
sheep largely $3.50 to 4.S5. Selling

Especially prepared by Clay, Rob
inson & co.,
Chicago, Union Stock Yards, ILL.,,
Sept. 13.-At this time one year ago
marketing of western range cattle
was being conducted at a fast clip.
Arrivals for August 1908, totaled
81 900, the heaviest for that month
since 1895. Last month, August, the
run was only 100000. For the season
to date last year the total had reached
122, 200, against $4,000 for this year
thus far. Thus it can be discerned
that marketing of western rangers,
in volume, is fully one month later
than this time one year ago, when ov-
er one-half of the seasons receipts
had been sent in from South Dakota
and full one-half from both Wyoming
and Montana, although bulk were
still back in North Dakota. From
CLAW. Robinson & Co.'s best and lat
est advices, they CLEAN that thus far
this season both Wyoming and South
Dakota have marketed not more than
one-third of their seasons supply,
Montana not to exceed 400 loads and
North Dakota just few train loads.
The 1908 receipts were 292,200, the
smallest yearly total since 1908.
From all Indications there will be
25 per cent shortage in the run this
season, and we would not be sur
prised if the years receipts proved
as small, or smaller, than in 1908,
when the supply at 100000 was the
smallest since 1901, only 14O,5O
showing up then.
Assuming that the seasons run is
going to show rs per cent decrease
from year ago, it means supplies
for 1909 will fall $1,000 short OF last
wear. AS almost $4,000 fewer rang
ers have reached Chicago this season
to date, it indicates that the shortage
for the next three months will be
quite immaterial; in fact, that sup
plies will hold right up to the figures
for 1908, when, during September,
October and November, $4,000,
10000 and $4,000 arrived respective
ly.
TOP BEEvEs BRING $6.4O.

shippers and local slaughtere RS for

IMPORTANT
DECISIONS

Acting Commissioner PrOudft OF
the general land office, has handed
down decision in case sent up
from the Rapid City, s. d., office to
the effect in brief that a mans wife
can not establish residence on a
claim. 1t was brought out in the
testimony that his wife had made the
claim her continuous residence but
that the husband had been absent
two or three months at a time and on
one occasion six months. Commits
sioner PrOudfit says: "Residence
under homestead laws must be es-
tablished by the personal act of the
entryman. Residence on a home
stead must be in person and can not
be by proxy, even by a member of
the entryman' family. Residence
under the hOme estead law can not be
established by the acts of another.
An item has been going the rounds
of the State press to the effect that
the homesteader could not sell his
homestead until the patent was re-
ceived from the general land office,
and that if the land was sold as soon
as the final receipt was issued, the
proof would be annulled and the land
! revert to the government. The mat
| ter was so important that Congress-
man Mondell took it up with a num-
Der of high officials in the interior
department, who agreed that the
/ mistake came about through the pc
culiar wording of a decision by Su-
preme Justice Brewer. Mr.. Mondell
puts the case positively in these
, words: cit has been established by
innumerable decisions, as you know,
J that patent is nothing but an evil
dence of title; that an entryman's
title is just as good after he has fully
complied with the law and received
his final receipt, as it is after patent
has been issued, and that he has a
perfect right to convey such land has
been decided over and over again,
and the land officials have in no wise
changed their views by reason of the
peculiar language used by Justice
Brewer."-
