Market Report.


| Total supply of cattle last week was
liberal here, Al, 300 head, but about
5000 stock cattle enroute from the
Panha ndle In Texas to South Dakota
were included. Deductlng these thin
cattle, which were not on the Market
the Total was normal as compared
with recent weeks. Buyers SUCCEEDED
in reducing prices on killing grades
10 TO 25 cents last week, on the claim
that retail price Of meat prevents
expansion of consumption. Dull oeel
markets In England have also curtail-
ed export demand, which pnt another
weapon ia the hands of buyers. Inc
decline was moderate, and not at all
discouraging to statesmen, who believe
that price breaKs between now ana
The advent of large numbers or grass
cattle at the markets will be Of short
duration, as the VIII oleoattle situation
is braced by an undercurrent OF
strength In the censumptive demand.
The run today is 7o0e head here,
several thousand less than on recent
Mondays. which confirms predictions
of dealers that runs will be light for
a few weeks. Anxiety Of owners to
finish planting corn is keeping some
cattle off the market this week

tions point to a shortage Of Is percent

equal, price considered, cannot be
found. 1t is an instrument that
grows better as it grows older. Its
popularity extends from the home
to the concert hall, and no other
piano is so widely known. To have
one is to be proud of it for a life

turned last night from Amarillo,
where they built a battleship to APP

this week. being employed by he Mod
ern Woodmen of America, of Amarillo
They report a big time in Amarillo
and that the rains the first of the
week served only to stimulate the
plans for the remainder of the week.
They state that there are 200 autos
decorated for the parade and that
there are racers from Chicago and ev-
en- as far as New York to take Part
in the races He states that no e X
pense is being spared in getting up
the decorations for the autos and that
the car owners are spending from $50
to $500 apiece in decorating their cars
The average expense on the cars viii
reach a hundred dollars, which will
make ii a $40. 900 parade. All this is
being done to contest for an eighteen
dollar loving cup.
The Roswell boys had a big time at
Amarillo. They built a battleship As
feet long. eleven feet wide and eigh-
teen eel high, to ride an auto, and
the while thing weighed but 200 lbs.
II had 800 feet of rope in its garbage
and cost the Woodsnen about $3.50.
The Roswell boys also saw many
sights while in the yellow City. Frank
Helmick was standing in the middle
of the street looking at a high build
ing when a street car came along and
knocked him off the track. JIst as he
hit the ground he heard somebody say
Look at that Rub from Roswell"
Frank was on the street carrying
his overalls rolled up under his arm,
when taken in tow by one of the %
rangers who ply the town all the time.
Frank had to unroH his working clio
thes and show the ranger that he had
no whisky concealed before they
would let him go. Frank says that
Amarillo is as nea a ury town as can
be found in the west I'M every stran-
ger Is Swallowed until his business is
learned. Guy spent all his spare time
with the ladies and says Amarillo has
got Roswell beat a mile in this re-
specc.
