WEATHER IN THE GRAIN BELT
showers for the Good King Friday
and Cooler.

A Oct. Z, 1909.
The area of low pressure that has been
observed i'm the extreme northwest for sew
eral days past, has moved slowly eastward
during the last twenty-four hours, and now
extends from the Saskatchewan valley
south over the entire eastern slope of the
Rocky mountains, with its greatest de-
preston still over the Canadian provinces.
Showers have accompanied the depression
over the northwest and in the upper Mis-
souri, valley during the last twenty-four
hours, and showery and unsettled weather
is general in the mountains this morning.
An area of high pressure on the Pacific
slope is following the low, and cooler
weather prevails In the mountains and
throughout the northwest. The area of
low pressure will continue eastward over
the central valleys and will cause showers
in this vicinity tonight and Friday, with
cooler Friday. TIL pressure remains high
over the eastern portion and the weather
continues fair everywhere throughout the
and south.

CATTLE-There was. another good run
size Of the receipts were concerned, but 1t
was far from good in point of quality. The
market, as q whole, was in very satisfac-
tory condition, the same as 1t has been all
the week.
Packers were in need Of supplies n
we're free buyers OF all desirable killers,
but the supply OF such, as noted above,
was small. On the other hand, inferior
kinds were naturally q little dull.
What has been said regarding beef steers
would apply equally well to cows and heif-
ers, as they too were in good demand at
steady prices.
The better grades Of feeders were very
men who had undesirable cattle were in
some cases calling the market q little
lower. This, however, was to be expected,
as there has been q great surplus OF com
mon to fair cattle this week, while on the
other hand, strictly good cattle have been
scarce.
