Kansas CITY Market Report.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan
uary 20. 1909.
There has been big drop in
cattle receipts this week and the
market is Is to 80 cents higher
than the close of last week. All
the markets have had small runs
this week, and the supply here
today is only 1000 head, not
much more than half a normal
supply for Tuesday. Receipts
have been light for more than a
week now, and although buyers
insist that the recent spell of
warm weather has left them
with coolers full of beef, and are
not very enthusiastic in advanc-
ing prices, the feeling is much
better this week and continued
light runs will inevitably bring
further advances. Country buy
ers have taken fieshy steers free
~ lately. at prices up to 1915,
and as there are few steers with
enough quality to bring above
$3.50, the price range on beef
steers is narrower than any time
before this winter. Top is So.
today, and steers that have had
only d short course in the feed
yard, if of good weight, bring a
round $3.50. Top cows bring up
to 1926, heifers 1913, bulk of
she stuff $500 to $4. 80, bulls So
20 to S4.75. Calves have had a.
big break in the last ten days,
veals that formerly brought 50. 90
now going OF $500 to $3.50, heav-
Ter calves showing a somewhat
less severe loss. Outside of the
comparatively small number of
heavy feeders going out at $3.50
and upwards, bulk of the feeders
sell at 81. so to So. 40, stockers at
s.. % to 1925.
While the hog run is fairly
good, it is smaller than last week
and a third less than correspond
ing time d year ago. Run is II,
600 head today, market steady
with yesterday, which means 5
to 10 cents above the close of last
week. and at the highest point
since October 1st, heavy hogs at
$500 to $685., medium weights
So. 90 to 80, lights S3.70 to So
20, pigs $500 to 50 so Although
provisions have advanced lately.
packers are not disposed to sell
very heavily. indicating their be
lief in higher prices for the pro
duct As the tendency seems to
b e toward smaller receipts,
stronger prices for live hogs is
the favorite forecast.
The sheep market was lower
last week. but prices are strong
er this week, although receipts
are larger. Run is 5000 here
today, market 10 higher, or about
equal to first of last week. The
Romssee lambs from St. Mary'S
topped the market today at S7.65
other good lambs at $40 to 81
90. yearlings at $3.50 to $500,
wethefs 1925 to $500, ewes S4.75
to 1925. Some thin feeding
lambs have gone out lately at &c.
%, and fieshy feeding lambs at
$40.

The pieces rendered by the band

One Of the worst features Of the situation is that the teams which are being used for railroad grading purposes are not supplied with water without difficulty. The large number Of horses which are used in the district and the many psope who have recently came to the camp have caused a serious drain on the water supply. In speaking Of the matter Jesse Noasum, right or way man for the Courtland railway, states that considerable annoyance has grown out of this obstacle and that it will be a great benefit 10 the camp when ample water has been de Velopsd.
