Cattlemen Fear Losses.

The range conditions are not so favorable in southern Arizona as they are in this section, as is evil denced by the following from the Silver Belt:
 "To lack of rain during the summer months is assigned the serious conditions confronting the cattlemen of Gila and Graham counties.
 With the exception of small areas in the Tonto Basin and in the valley, the ranges are said to be in the poorest condition for grazing in the memory of cattle men of this district, and in many locations 1t is believed that there will not he sufficient forage to feed the stock through the winter months.
 For this reason large ship ments to California are expected shortly, so that the stock may be fed there and later sent to mar ket. " Prescott Courier.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER
(By J. A. Rickart, Correspondent

NbuSdS Sit) OtOCh ldluSJ oSp-
 tember 26, ToIo.-Cattle receipts
 here dropped down after Monday
 last week, and prices began to inn
 prove by the middle of the week,
 and the close was IS to 25 higher
 on nearly all kinds, than sales
 Monday. The big end of Kansas pasture stuff has been run, and large proportion of what remains will be put into feed lots unless the market holds up in a satisfac- tory way. Quarantine cattle are nearly all in, and it looks like smaller receipts of cattle next month, and better prices. The supply from distant states has been heaviest of the season in the last ten days, and a good propor- ton of the run today is from the range states, Supply today is 25,ooo head, not including $500 calves, market steady on almost everything, some weakness on middle class fed steers, and some strength exhibited by cows. Every state in the west and southwest, from Wyoming to Texas, has been represented here in the last week. The mountain beef steers bring S4.4o to S5.25, stockers S4.oo to S5I5, feeders S4. so to S5. so, a big string today at $500, and cows at S3. so to S4.75. New Mexico and Texas Panhandle offerings run more to cows, at S3.65 to S4.Io, and calves at s5, 50 to SS. so, with a sprinkling ol stock steers at S4 to S5.oo. Gamer cows bring Sass to S3. 40, A train of the Baer ; Brothers old Mexico steers from Colorado, 900 lbs, brought s.. here last Thursday. Former ship ments this season have sold at $4.6o to SASS.
 The biggest run of sheep on record arrived here last week, 8o,- 900 head. In conjunction with the fact that other markets also had record receipts last week, the fact is remarkable that prices held up so we'll, declining only IS to 25 cents for the week. The run is I2, 1000 here today, market steady on lambs, sheep To to IS lower. Colorado lambs sold at S6,8o to- day. Wyoming feeding lambs at $500, Utah feeding lambs 5000. Wyoming ewes S3.6o, Colorado light ewes $40, yearlings worth around S5,25, Wethers, S4.oo to s4.5o. Hog shortage at all the markets is causing greater con sumption of mutton, hence heav- fer purchases by packers, and the capacity of the country this sea- son for stock and feeding grades is practically unlimited. It keeps | on raining all over the corn sec ton, and frost has held off so far, with a good deal of hot weather this month, all of which are factors in further increasing the amount of feed to be consumed this win ter.
