Live Stock Market.

Kansas City Stock Yards, April II,
1910. Cattle receipts here last week
were 81, 900 head, the smallest Total
for any week since Christmas. and
other markets also had extremely slim
supplies, with the natural result that
prices made good gain, 20 to 30
cents. In some cases the close OF the
week looked as high as at any time,
but the average was 10 to . cents
below the best time, two weeks ago.
The gain last week was purely due to
the small run, and not to any wide
expansion OF the retail demand, and
! differed from the easy rise OF the mar
kct during March In that last week
there was fight on every cent Of ad-
vance asked. This would indicate
the horizon of the beef situation. To-
day the liberal run OF 1900 head ar
rived here, with good runs elsewhere
and prices are 10 to Is lower on all
kinds Of cattle except stockers and
feeders today. Top steers sold around
ss. 90 here today but strictly prime
steers are quotable at $3.50, and bulk
OF sales at So. 10 to $3.50. Cows bring
a. % to $3.50, heifers $500 to $7.25.
Calves broke 81 % to $l.50 per cwt.
last week, and the best veals now sell
at 1915, fair to good veals around
$500. Bulls are still SO to IS cents
below the high time, as they were an
exception in the general rise last
week, selling today at 1915 to $5.S5.
Shipment of stockers and feeders to
the country from here last week we're
less than 200 cars, but up to the limit
of the supply, and closing prices were
Is to 25 higher for the week. The
market on them Is about steady today,
with feeders selling at 5000 to 1918,
and stockers 81. so to $685.. A string
of Colorado feeders brought $3.50 to
day, horned. Forty loads Of Colorado
beef cattle are here today, selling at
$3.50 toS6.75.
The hog market got the worst set
back last week it has had any week
this year, prices off 25 to 80 cents, net.
There was some gain at the end Of
the week from the low time, but as
promise for better prices this week it
was misleading, as the run of $500
head here today is selling 15 to 20
lower than the close of last week.
Heavy hogs are selling today at SlO.25
to TO- 35, medium weights up to Sl0.50.
and top on lights is slO.l5. A big
break in provisions was the main
weakness in hogs last week, and the
downward trend in prices is due to
the falling off in consumption, with
some slight increase in the volume of
the supply.
Sheep and lambs came in for their
share OF the tribute toward the cheap
er cost of living last week, and prices
dropped down as low as 81 90 per cwt.
below the highest time this spring,
Since Thursday there has been bulge
in prices again, and the market is up
10 to 20 cents today, with top wooled
lambs today at 975, and top clipped
lambs 1886. Best yearlings are
worth so 90, wethers 1926, ewes 81. 60.
A band of Texas clipped grass NUT
tons sold today at 800, and goats are
worth SO so to s4.75.

IF WE ONLY UNDERSTOOD.
written for The Star by Uncle William.)
w. j. w.

If we only knew the cares and trials,
Knew the efforts all in vain,
And the bitter disappointment,
Understood the loss and gain,
Would the grim, eternal roughness
Seem, wonder, just the same?
Should we help where now we hinder
Should we pity where we blame ?
Ah we judge each other harshly,
Knowing not life's hidden force;
Knowing not the fount of action
Is less turbid at its source:
Seeing not amid the evil.
All the golden grains of good;
And we'd love each other better
If we only understood.
Could we but draw back the curtains
That surround each others lives,
See the naked heart and spirit,
Know what spur the action gives,
Often we should find it better,
Purer than we thought we should;
We should know each other better
If we only understood.
Could we Judge all deeds by motives,
See the good and bad within,
Often we would love the sinner,
All the while we loathe the sin;
Could we know the secret sorrows
That o'erwhelms him like a food,
We might brighten his to-morrows
If we only understood.
Could we know the powers working,
To overthrow integrity,
We should judge each others errors
With more patient charity;
Just word in kindness spoken
Oft will do power of good
And heal many heart that's broken
If we only understood.
Let us then be active, earnest,
Striving for the heavenly goal
With our care assist in bringing
Comfort to a weary soul,
Be not weary in well-doing,
Work together heart and hand
Earthly vanities eschewing,
Then, some day, we'll understand.
