HIDES, HORNS AND WOOL.
Readable Items from the Cattle Ranges of Arizona Territory.
 Live Stock Market.

KANSAS CITY, June 30, 1911.- . Cattle received here this week 39,- 900, last week 42,300, same week last year 26,000. Demand has been little ahead of the supply all week, and everything has advanced 15 to 25 cents. Fed steers sold at $6.50 to-day, highest price this week, and also highest since April, but dealers say the cattle were not strictly top notchers, that they would have sold around $6.10 two weeks ago. Rains over Kansas City territory this week have post poned for the present the heavy forced marketing of cattle because of dead pastures, which would soon have been in effect but for these rams. More rain is needed, and no doubt will fall, anyway there is less doubt about it than there was a week ago. Half the beef steers sell at $6.00 and upwards, balance downwards to $5.25, in the native division, including grass steers from native territory, which latter have a range from $5.15 to $6.00 this week. In the quarantine division more than 500 car loads have arrived this week, and the market is a quarter higher for the week. Steers range from $40O to $6.5O, most of the run medium to light weight steers which have sold good, at $4.25 to $475 900 to 1050tb weight. Butcher stuff is higher, along with the other kinds, best COWS around $500, most native COWS $3.25 to $425, fancy heifers this week $630, most of the heifers $4.75 to $500, bulls 1925 to $4.75 Calves are the only thing on the list to lose ground this week, off 25 to 50 cents, top veals $6,75 now Stockers and feeders have held the advance of last week, and put a little more on in places, average prices half dollar higher than the low time, stock steers $3.75 to $500 feeders $4.45 to $5.40
