Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan. 16.-
Medium and heavy weight beef steers
We're received with more favor than
usual last week, and made as much
of a gain as anything, the general mar
ket up 10 to Is cents for the week
Settled winter weather has opened up
the outlet for heavy cuts of beef, and
it has developed that eastern chill
rooms are poorly stocked Local cool
er stocks are also down to a low point,
and some bullish talk has been in
dulged in during theh last week. The
run today was larger than expected
in view of recent storms, 10000 head
here, but this supply has moved at
only a small decline from close of last
week, steers off 10 cents, cows steady
to weak, stockers and feeders steady.
A good many farmers and feeders in
possessed of cribs full Of corn, and are
eager to get something to consume it.
These parties are taking partly fed
steers up to $3.50 freely, and packers
are getting very fe wsteers in the
$575 notch, or below that, as the coun-
try demand wants that kind the most
The best steers here today sold at
$3.50, bulk of steers $500 to 1925.
Some long fed steers brought 1915
here last week. 1t is conceded that
this kind of steers, and top feeders, at
$500, are selling too close together,
but which end of the market is wrong
remains to be seen. Outside order
buyers are picking up good to choice
heavy cows at $4.75 to $5,4O, and
choice bulls up to $5.25, bologna, bulls
$4.25 to $4.75, heifers $3.50 to $500,
best veals 1915, heavy calves $3.50 to
$3.50, stockers $3.50 to $3.50. feeders
$500 to $500. Quarantine steers are
selling at $5.40 to $5S5 mostly, top in
that division today $500. Few fed
westerns have been coming, some Col
orado stockers here last week at S. 40
to $685.
Although the hog market declined
10 cents last week, it was a good show
ing, in view of the increased receipts.
as compared with recent weeks. Total
supply was nearly $4,000 head, sew
eral thousand more than same week
last year, and the run of 5000 here to-
day points to fairly good receipts this
week. Some bear talk is persistently
heard, based on the big corn crop, but
it takes time to make hogs and pack
ers are taking hold freely at present
prices, and with willingness. The
market is steady to weak today, top
$3.50, bulk of sales $40 to SITS.
Present prices are so cents under this
time last year, but outside of that they
stand out prominently as high figures,
about $500 higher than this time in
1909, and $3.50 higher than average for
the past ten years.
Sheep gained about quarter last
week, and lambs lost 10 to 25 cents
during the week These classes are
travelling toward each other again to-
day, and lambs are getting pretty close
to yearling prices that is light weight
yearlings, Run is $4,000 here today,
sheep 10 higher, some Mexicon ewes
at $4.35, wethers worth $3.50, light
yearlings $5.75. Lambs are 10 lower.
bulk selling today at $685. to s6.O5, top
$6.10. A good share of the supply to-
day is from Colorado which section is

FRIBBLEs OF FASHION.

Flowers and Butterflies For the Sum-
ner Hats-Transparent Sleeves.
No hat will be in style this spring
unless it has a dollhouse display of
flowers and butterflies Even the we'd
ding hats and the accompanying
bridesmaids head coverings, which are
exempt from the wide brim ban, must
have the flowers and the butterflies
An outfit of this kind that is being
prepared for a certain occasion is
made with trimming of ribbon roses
over a drapery Of lace. The brides
hat has an immense butterfly of silver
cloth.
Sleeves on all evening dresses are
very transparent, often being formed
of tul1e or lace.
Distinctly new and fetching among
the fascinating fabrics for children's
frocks are the hand embroidered cot

and the shocking is French hand
work.
For dainty chiffon or silk dress
waists instead of ordinary buttons
brass rings of the proper size button
holed over in silk of a color to match
the fabric or the trimmings are being
used. In white thread this is very
nice for lingerie blouse also and
easier to make than crocheted buttons.
Silks, challies and cottons show a
tendency of having a supplementary
border of solid tone. An idea of the
most novel effects may be gained by
mentioning a new tulIe of white with
a scattered pattern of dull red roses
and soft green foliage. The border
was in Greek key effect, and beneath
there appeared a band of solid black.
TUNES continue to be exceedingly
smart. and those of the present sea
son are eminently simple. This one is
plain, yet most effective when d Dor
