Live Stock Market.

KANSAS CIrY, Jan. 6, 1911- Cattle received here this week 33,SOO, last week 27,SOO, same week last year 39,0OO. The mar ket enjoyed a furry Monday and Tuesday, account of slim receipts because of the storm, but some depression has been felt since, particularly on heavy fed steers. Prices on these are no better than week ago. Light steers, butcher stuff, and stockers and feeders have held up better, and are worth little more than a week ago. The best steers here this week brought $665, and lot of cattle sold at $60 to $650, very few steers under $525. Prices on butcher grades are highest of the winter, heavy COWS selling up to $525, and fancy heifers up to $6.50, bulls $400 to $5.15, veal calves $500 to $8 50. Several strings of meal fed steers from Oklahoma have been in quarantine division here this week, and have sold at higher prices, mainly at $5 30 to $5.55. Trade in stockers and feed CTS has been active up to the limit of the supply, and prices are high est in several months, stockers at S4.25 to $550, feeders $5.50 to $5.70.
 Hogs received here this week 45,00, last week 33000, same week last year 50,300. The market has been uneven, but ruling tendency has been towards higher prices. Feature of the week was the sale
The oasis., 1911-01-14

of a load of hogs from Kansas State Agricultural College, at the top price of the week, $S.10. Run is good for Friday to-day, $500, considerably above the estimate, and prices are steady to 3 higher top $500, bulk $790 to $795, Packers are apparently unable to stop the advance of the market, though fighting hard. The main element of strength is the large demand from killers at other points, which trade has taken about l5Go of the receipts of hogs here this week.
 Sheep here this week 35,000, last week 2l ,000, same week last year 37,900. The market has changed a good deal, but is closing with a moderate note again for the week around p cents. Best lambs have been selling at $6 D this week, but brought $640 today, light yearlings worth up to $550, heavy yearlings $475, wethers $425, ewes $3.50 to $400. Buyers pay more for the light weight Mexican lambs than for the heavier West erns.

Readable Items from the Cattle Ranges
 of Arizona Territory.


 from the southern part of Arizona the past few months, number of cattle owners have been agitating the forming of a cattle association of the four counties and withdraw ing from the territorial association. It Is understood that number are in favor of a local organization and it may be but a short time until actual formation of the Southern Cattle Owners associa- tion will be under way.
 Tucson Citizen: In the Arizona district the ArivSca Land & Cattle company states that the grass is even now in splendid condition, and that feed is plentiful. It is also good in the foothills of the Catalinas, and in the vicinity of Greaterville on the eastern end of the Santa Ritas. From this fact and others, it is anticipated that the present year, supposing that third drouth does not occur, will be one of the most profitable in the history of the cattle industry.
 Tucson Citizen: One of the financial mainstays of Pima county during the past year was the cattle industry, which, notwithstanding the fact that last summer was the second consecutive dry season, con- tributed nearly $l 100000, directly or indirectly to the community. Financial students of the town as- sert that this revenue from the cat tie business, passing through the regular trade channels, in steady stream, is very materially assisting other lines of activity in making the local money situation. The cattle sales during the fall and early winter were somewhat heav- fer than usual, owing to the lack of feed in some few sections and the prime conditions of the stock in others. Though an impression was prevalent that drouth was driving the cattlemen to ship, various of the larger cattle owners state that in times of drouth cows form the major portion of the shipments, whereas last fall steers, and fat ones for range cattle at that, con stituted the larger part of the ex- port business. Some time after the summer rains, many cattlemen were able to cut wild hay in con- siderable quantities, and thus are able to to tide their cattle over to cold weather in good condition.
 Arizona Republican: Between forty and fifty Arizona cattle grow CTS will attend the annual conven- tion of the National Live Stock Association, to be held in Fort Worth Texas, January 10, Il and 12. Two addresses will be made by Arizonians on Tuesday, the second day of the session. The speakers will be Dwight B. Heard of Phoenix, and Prof J. J. Thorn 0er of the University of Arizona, at Tucson, both of whom will talk upon "Proper Conservation of Pub lie Grazing Lands" MT. Heard who is chairman of the grazing committee of the association, has been asked to take charge of that part of the convention's work which pertains to grazing. Tues day, January II, will be given over entirely to discussion of the ,Soa1no o,,acfion vu h iob ic o0n oi

Carried 1t In A Tank

There is nothing very new or
novel about carrying whiskey on
the hip or in a boot leg, but when
a buggy is fitted up like a Stand
ard Oil wagon and the tank so
neatly concealed that it defies dis
covery until you start to tear the
vehicle apart you have an innova-
ton. So thought j. w. Brabham
who yesterday attended the Albert
Beyea sale to furnish the refresh
ments. Had he stuck to this in
vention and not carted around q
number of loose bottles it might
have saved him 800 and costs in
Justice Pearce's court yesterday.
Sheriff Reeve learned yesterday
that said Brabham was on tn Q
grounds representing the firm of
Bruchus and company. 1t wasn't
difficult to catch him with t h e
goods which we're easily discovered
in the buggy. He then took his
man with what booze" he found
leaving instructions to have the
team brought in.
Some curious investigating in
dividuals thinking that in the con-
fusion a full one" might have
been overlooked, began to rum
mage around. Under the S g a t
they found a 5-gallon tank marked
gasoline. Futher explorations
brought to light gasoline of golden
tint and a decidedly attractive fla
vor. The sequel was that 5 gal
Ions of real booze vigorously at
tackled by the fortunate finders
destroyed the coordinating powers
in sundry participants. Garden

A minister's wife, a doctors
wife and traveling's mans wife
met one day recently and were
talking about the forgetfulness of
their husbands. The minister's
wife thought her husband t h g
most torgetful man living, because
he would go to church and forget
his notes and no one could make
out what he was trying to preach
about. The doctors wife thought
her husband was more forgetful
for he would often start out to see
a patient and forget his medicine
case and therefore travel miles for
nothing. WELL" said the travel
ing mans wife, my husband beats

day and patted me on the cheek

the tariff on broomcorn and the
resolution was defeated by vote
of So to 81. The House went on
record as being opposed to a high
protective tariff. Seward county

dustry and Liberal is said to be
the greatest broomcOrn market in

A Near Accident.

What might have been a fatal
accident occurred on the streets of
Liberal last Friday afternoon. A
dog with symptoms of rabies or
poison was discovered near the
First National Bank. O fiji C Q r
Youst was notified to come and
shoot the animal which was acting
strangely. Not having a gun with
him, he asked DIR. Grlmble the
veterinary to shoot the dog. Mr..
Grimble took a shotgun and shot
the dog which was then in the
middle of Kansas Ave. The shot
scattered we'll, and glancing from
the hard street, one of the shot
struck a farmer in the face, max
ing a bad cash in his face. SeV-
eral more of the shot struck W..
"A. Custer in the shoulder, but
the force was nearly spent, and no
injury resulted. The results were
entirely unlocked for by the Mar
shall, and it is a good bet that he
will be more careful in the future
about shooting dogs on the street.

Does Liberal Lose?

The work of financing the Com
mercial Mfg. Go. of Pratt h S
been completed, and A. G. Tracy
who is the head of the concern
will now busy himself with the
details Of establishing the new in
dustry. This company will man
ufacture brooms with the latest
machinery, thus materially reduc-
ing the cost of manufacture. The
concern is incorporated for $35, 900
the stock being held largely by
Pratt and Wichita men. Hutch
inson News
Last week the Commercial Club
here went on record as being a.
gainst tn e establishment of q
broomcorn factory at the state re-
, formatory at Hutchinson. the rea-
son given being that it would cut
off a valuable territory on the east,
if Liberal should eyer secure a
broom factory. I h secretary
even went so far as to circulate a
petition asking the legislature not
to pass the bill.
1t appears now, that while we
have been waiting for the factory
to come, Pratt has up and done
it". With no better facilities for
distributing the finished product
being futher from the raw mater
,ial than Liberal-and offering no
better advantages for labor, we do
not see any cause for our losing
the factory except our own delln-
quency in the matter. Our pros
poets for more railroads are better
than those of any other town in
western Kansas. Eventually the
new railroads will cut off a great
amount of the territory now trib-
utary to Liberal. Such being the
case, it seems to US that we need
to secure every new industry we
can for the future of the town.
Other railroads in this part of the
state will diminish the amount of
corn marketed here, unless we
have a factory which will use the
product, and incidentally make a
better price for the crop. In our
opinion the Commercial g u b
would accomplish much more for
the town, if they would start a
movement to get a broom factory
here, instead of wasting energy
in knocking other similar indus
tries in this section of the state.
