Market Report.

| Kansas City Stock farus, NOV. ls' lSVS'
Cattle receipts were heavy the first
of last week, and prices were lower
Monday, but moderate receipts both
here aud at other markets after
/ Monday allowed the market to right
itself somewhat by Wednesday, and
and In spite OF the holiday, Thursday,
the week closed Friday with all the
loss on steers rsgained, and with
COWS areund 10 lower for the week,
Htockers and feeders revived a little,
aud there was fairly good clearance
for the week, but prices closed 10 to
20 lower than previous week. Cattle
run today is 1900 head, held down
somewhat by storms In Kansas yesser
Cay, and the market is stronger on
all kinds, some sales of cows 10 higher.
Some good to choice steers brought
ST rs here today, but nothing In the
prime class has been here since two
weeks ago, the same quotable around
$3.50. Most OF the fed steers coming
sell between S. rs and $3.50, heavy
COWS at S4. 90 to 81 IS, fed heifers up
to Sc 90, bulls SO 90 to $500, calves
"a 90 to 81 80, well bred heller calves
from Texas selling In the native
division here lately at 81 % TO $5 %,
weighing around 800 pounds. Stocker
and feeder movement keeps up at
high volume, many buyers preferring
to buy at this time in order to get
the benefit of the fact that steers
carry the minimum Of flesh now,
without having started to 90 back
any. Thin cattle from the range
country are considered bargain by
many, both account of generally good
breeding and because of the heavy
shrink secured by the long haul to
market. Feed from 81 % to 8 40,
stockers SO 90 to IS 10.
Hcg receipts were as heavy In five
days last week as 10 the six days Of
the previous week, but buyers appeared
TO want supplies, and the market
ruled strong most Of the time all
week, Run today is 9Ooo head,
market to ten higher, heavy hogs at
SS Is to 1925, medium weights So 90
to So 20, light hogs $3.50 to $50, pigs
sc. so to $3.50. Receipts at all the
markets are running so light that
practically everything is going direct
to the consumer, without any surplus
for accommodating stocks of provisions,
bnt brokers argue that there Is
limit to everything, and advise their
clients to take profits whenever
possible on the present level of prices,
suggesting the belief that theconsumer
has about reached the limit OF
endurance.
Sheep and lam s held about steady
last week, and the market is firm
today, run 5000. Sheep receipts here
for November will be heaviest on
record here for that month, but the
demaud has been undersupplied all
the time during the month. Top fed
lambs today brought 81 so, light
yearlings $500, wsthers worth $3.50,
ewes So. 90 Receipts from the range
country are light, and composed
mostly of tail end stuff, suitable only
for feeders, the lambs going out lately
at So. 30 to So rs.

The Expected "Hard
Times"

The voice of the pesslmist is always
heard In the land. In times Of plenty
he proclaims poverty ahead; when
money is a bit scarce and laborers are
hunting work, he says the worst is
yet to come. 1t may be that we are
yet to have the sequence of the
"paHic of 1907" but we have locked
In vain SO long that we believe now
the worst is oyer, instead of the worst
being yet to come.
Speaking for aud of the farmer, 1t
may be said they saw the danger
signal before they came to the danger.
When times began to tighten during
the fall of 1907, the farmers did not
act like fools. They proved them
selves the sanest bunch In the lot.
Instead of getting scared out of their
wits, instead of stopping their buying,
they went straight ahead with their
plans. The manufacturers we're able
to take a lesson from the action OF
the farmers, and soon the panic Of
1907 was no more.
The East is not as prosperous now
as the w est. This is because the
West Is more agricultural than the
East. Where you find good farming
deDs now you lind the people prosper
Gus. No one is talking about hard
times, existing or yet to be. Looking
at the matter from every angle, it
does not seem probable that real hard
times will come again In our life time.
The country no longer looks upon the
condition Of the farmer as 1t did at
one time. Instead Of getting all
possible out vf the farmer, the people
are glad to see him prosper, for they
know the farmer is a man who
"whacks up" II he is prosperous,
those who deal with him are The
Farmers Mail and Breeze.

There are thousands OF persoL
deferred from entering the poultry
business on account of the dread the Y
have of the cholera getting amung
their fowls and the consequent results.
Now there is no more danger of
cholera among chickens than there is
Of cholera among hogs or cattle, and
| If properly attended tc, there is no
| danger at all. A farmer Ia Brown
county not long ago wrote to his
county paper stating he had been
breeding hogs for rs or 30 years and
had never been troubled with a case
of cholera, while his neighbors hogs
were dying all around him, with this
diIease' He attributed his immunity
from attack to the fact that he
changed the location of his hog pens
every season, blowing up the old pen
and sowing it to oats or rye. We
believe that farmer did the right
thing and that the same methods
applied to poultry yards Will solve
the poultry cholera. Perfect cleanli-
ness about the yards and poultry
houses is indispensable to the health
Of the fowls. II new yards caDnot be
given them, the old ones oughb to be
spaded up eacn spring. The habit Of
throwing the feed of fowls and hogs
on the ground, In the midst of all the
filth of their surroundings, is what
causes this disease, and until the
method of feeding is changed, cholera
will be prevalent. On the other
hand, if the yards and houses are kept
clean, the feed and water kept In
clean vessels and the yards changed
or spaded up each sbring, cholera will
be unknown and disease of all kinds
will bacOme an unknown quantity.
The writer mas raised poultry fer rs
years and has never had cholera ia
his fl Ick.
You know that the ceckerels that
yon are selling now were worth twice
as much pound when they were
half as old, and that you have been
feeding them two er three months
solely for the pleasure Of their COM
pany; do you know that the old hens
you are now selling have produced
very little since the time they were
worth so per cent more on the market?
Every day you keep marketable hens
whose intentions toward the egg
basket are not honorable, means loss;
Gull them out, then Gull again and
again until it hurts.

l
should be SO situated that the aud
can shine Ia 1t at least for s0pe
portion Of The day. Sunshine is very
beneficial 30 the health OF the flock
and detrimental to lice and disease
germs of oil kinds Don't DO afraid
OF too much sunlight and in this
sunlight have place where the fowls
can dust In and rid themselves Ut any
lice that may be on them.
While we all know that pullets will
lay more eggs than hens and are
therefore more profitable simply a.
egg-lay ers, still 1t will not 40 to
discard all the one and two year old
hens, for we must depend on them,
rather than on the pullets, for our
new crop of poultry next season. The
eggs that hens lay are much larger
than those that pullets lay and there
fore are much better for batchiDg
purposes, producing larger chicks.
which are harder and have more
Vitality than chicks Matched from
pulletJ eggs.
1t is very essential that all decaying
animal matter be buried as soon as
discovered, for the hens are sure to
find such matter If left exposed and
on eating it they become sick and
have disease that is called timber
neck. Whenever hen dies of any
disease, see that she is buried at
once or better still cremate her. Very
often the dog will catch a rabbit and
eat only portion of it, allowing the
remainder to rot and decay Hens
are ravenous after animal food and
will pick at such no matter how filthy
it is. The only remedy is to bury or
burn all such rotten things at once.
That bran lisa good chicken feed Is
known to all poultrymen, for it is
used in all the mashes that are fed TO
poultry. 1t is also good when fed in
its dry state; some poultrymen keep
bran before their chickens at all
times and they eat an immense
quantity Of 1t. But there is on most
farms product that has more protein
in it than bran, and therefore more
valuable as poul ny food, and that
IS alfalfa leaves 1t las been proven
by analysis that pound for pound,
there is more protein in alfalfa meal
than in wheat ban, and alfalfa meal
IS composed OF the whole alfalfa plant,
fiber, leaves and all. The alfalfa
leaves, therefore, that are found in
the hay mows on alfalfa farms, are
more valuable still and should be fed
to the chickens in the dry state and
also made into mash by scaIdin2
with hot water and mixing with corn
chop. A cheaper and more valuable
food cannot be fed to The laying hen.
Nearly two hundred girls IN the
high schools OF Kansas City have
never seen live hog. This interest
ing fact was disclosed as The result of
a recent canvass Of the schools, follow
ing the discovery that girl who saw
a hog for the frsA lime this summer
was astonished to fpd that IT had
hair. This condition OF ignorance
will cause people to smile but 1t calls
attention to a serious evil Of the
times. Our cities are growing rapidly
and the time must come when an
emigration to the country will result.
Our schools, city and country, must
educate to the country not away from

A Very Nice Showing.

The fourth annual meeting of the
stockholders Of the Sedgwick Banking
company was held in the office of the
bank at Sedgwick on Saturday last.
The following officers and directors
were elected for the ensuing year:
E. F. Clayton, president; G. W. Stock
ham, vice-president, W. F. Miles, CASH
ier; NJ. l.. Gyger and John kaschke.
The stockholders were we'll pleased
with the condition of the bank, and
strongly endorsed the management Of
Mr.. Miles. the cashier. In fact, not
a dollar has been charged off as bad
loans or otherwise since the bank
opened for business four years ago,
and no loans on hand are considered
bad, or even doubtful. This not only
speaks we'll for Mr.. Miles as a conser-
vative banker, but speaks we'll for the
town and community, both as to hon.
esty and its ability to pay.
