KANSAS CITY LIVESTOCK.

Kansas City Stock Yards. Oct. q
The cattle market turned out better
last week than it looked from the
viewpoint of last Monday. for the rea-
son that receipts dropped down sharp
ly after Tuesday, thus enabling sales
men to completely regain the slight
loss of Monday before the end of the
week. This week is starting out ex-
actly like last week, heavy run all
around, $4,000 here, including $500
calves, market steady to Toe lower.
Dealers have been expecting a bigger
run of cattle than has appeared, and
reports from the grazing sections i'm
dictate that the cattle are pretty well
run out, at least no great big number
remains August showed big short
age at all points from last year same
month, and September figures are
even more impressive, 10000 cattle
short here from September last year
At Chicago so far this season 10000
rangers have been received, the small
est number in ten years for the period
to date. and $1,000 less than last year.
Yet prices do not advance, whicn
proves two things, a slack outlet for
the beef and great caution ON the part
of country buyers. Both of these con-
ditions might change for the better
any time; they are not apt to get any
worse. The upper 20 per cent of the
cattle in all classes are selling fully
steady today, the balance weak to 1Oc
lower. Prime beef steers are worth
I'D to $500; short fed steers $3.50
7.25; native grass steers S5.25@7.OO;
Western grass beef steers $4,000
SIS: Old Mexicos $390@4.4O: quaran-
tine steers s3.S0@5.50; native and
Western grass cows $30O@4.S5; veal
calves s4.50@7.75. which is 25@75c
lower than week ago. Stock steers
bring s3.75@5.35; feeders $4.25@6.00.
Hogs lost 2O@25c last week, but
they closed the week with a suspicion
of strength Pigs made an actual gain
of Csc for the week, but they still sell
at ruinous rates, s4.00@500. Supply
today is $500 head, rather light for
Monday; market strong to &c higher,
top $3.50, bulk se.25@6.45. These
prices are $3.50 lower than year ago

LIGHTS WERE FINE
The New Power Plant Made Good on
Electric Lights.


The connections for the municipal
lighting system with the new power
plant were all finished up late yester.
day afternoon and the lights were
thrown on for the first time. They
came on right now" too. There was
no little yellow wire that gradually
grew brighter. but in a fash they
came on, perfect white light They
remained perfectly steady ar night,
not one time did they die down, then
brighten up again. The service last
night was perfect and if it is main
tanned the municipal lighting system
will receive very few kicks.
The water system is not in perfect
order yet, and will require a few days
to get everything Strengthened out and
in perfect working order. When this
is. done the city will take charge of
the water also and the service will no
doubt be as satisfactory as the lights.

A WEAK WOMAN
and HER STORY
In Floral, Ark. Lives Lady Who
Feels That Her Strength Was
Restored by Cardui.

Floral, Ark.-w must speak a good
word for Cardui," writes Mrs. Viola
Baker, of this place.
"About a month ago was in very bad
health | was so weak and nervous that
was not able to do my homework.
"My husband bought me one bottle OF
Cardui, the womans tonic. took it ac-
cording to directions and now am II,
good health.
al think Cardui is fine tonic for weak
women"
And you are not the only lady who
thinks SO, Mrs. Baker.
Thousands, like you, have written ia
tell of the wonderful benefit Cardui has
been to them.
Cardui contains no minerals, or other
powerful drugs. 1t contains no glycerin
or other maWkish- tasting ingredients.
II is just pure, natural extract OF
natural vegetable herbs, that have been
found to regulate the wonanly functions
and strengthen the female system.

DR.. Sagerbund, the great French
physician, proved this beyond

In order to sid your scalp of filthy
dandruff you must kill the germ.
There is hair dressing called Paris

town in America, that is guaranteed
to eradicate dandruff, stop falling
hair, splitting hair and scalp itch IN
two weeks, or money back.
If you have dandruff get q large
so cent bottle today and rid yourself
of it. Remember that if dandruff
germs are not destroyed in time, the
hair will surely fall out and bald
ness will follow.
Here's proof of what Partisan
Sage has done; 1t will do more. 1t
is the finest hair grower and hair
dressing in the world and people
who use 1t regularly will never grow

ENGLAND MAY ABOLISH GALLONS
A Bill in Parliament Proposes to
Asphyxiate Condemned Grim
inals In Their Cells.
United Press Special.


London. Jan. 5.-A bill will be
introduced at the next session of
Parliament for the abolition of the
gallows and the strictly private dis
patch of condemned men in their
cells and under the influence of an
anaesthetie The measure hes al
ready been drafted and its passage
Is being agitated by group under
the leadership OF A. G. Benson, the
author, and son of late Bishop of
Canterbury.
Il cannot help thinking Benson
explained, that condemned man
time, within fixed limits. and the
manner of his death, and that the
resources of medical science should
be employed to make that death as
swift, as quiet and as painless as
possible,
IF a prisoner in the solitude OF
his cell might be allowed to swal-
low a potion, or be done to death
by an anaesthetic, death would nj
least have some touch of privacy
and decorum about 1t. But the aw-
full ceremony and disgusting appa-
ratus of violent death seem to me
utterly barbarious and medieval a
man at such crisis of his fate Is
not a thing to exult and gloat over
whatever his crime may have been
and + believe that the solemn bar
barity of the whole proceedine has
an entirely degrading and debastns

LEARNING TO FARM.

From Ithaca comes the decidedly
reassuring information that there
is q general rush up there by stu
dents from all over the country to
take regular or special courses at
the New York state College OF Agri-
culture which is a constituent part
OF Cornell University. The total en-
rollment in the college at present is
1854 students, compared with only
932 for the year 1909. SO great is
the pressure for matriculation that
the trustees have just been obliged
to announce that hereafter tuition
will be charged to all students from
points outside of New York state. al
though up till now the privileges of
the institution have been free TO all
corners. An unusual feature of the
enrolment at present is the fact
that sixteen regular graduates OF
American universities or colleges,
all of them holding the degrees eth
er of bachelor or arts, bachelor of
philosophy, bachelor of laws or me-
chanical engineer, are taking agri-
cultural courses Now, if all these
1900 and more students we're only
actually preparing themselves TO be-
come practical farmers and go on
the land as producers, it would mean
much as promising ultimately TO
bring about greatly improved eco
nomic and social conditions and TO
reduce the cost of living; but even
if only a half or a third of them real
" get ION the soil the movement Is
highly encouraging one. 1t makes
for more farming and vastly better
farming than now. But the rush
for agricultural educations is not all

SELLING THE PUBLIC LAND.

Land Commissioner Robson still
maintains that the remaining $3.50
600 acres OF unsold public school
lands should be sold without the re-
quirement of residence and improve
ment, upon the ground that they are
unstable under that restriction, be-
cause nobody can live upon them or
can utilize them for any purpose.
He insists that the constitution
makes their sale mandatory, which
is true, but the law provides that
they shall only be sold subject to
residence. Mr. Robson would have
all restriction removed and allow
the lands to be sold to spectators
And here is where he strikes oppo-
sition because Texas has had some
sorrowful experience with land spec.
ulators and wants no more.
The state is as able TO hold the
land as any Spectator and should
do so, reducing at once the amount
Oh ldnu that can be purchased II

from eight sections to four sections
Certainly no action should be TAX

POWERS FIGHTING FOR PERSIA
England and Russia Seem Deter
mined to Divide Shah's Coun-
try Between Them.
United Press Special.

United Press Special.
Teheren, Jan. 5.-Thc impression
here is that Germany and Turkey,
combined have frightened England
and Russia out Of dividing Persia
between--just at present, at least.
In Northern Persia, Russia has
not, indeed relinquished anything
that it held, 1t maintains garrisons
wherever it had them and the Cars
officers continue to interfere in Per-
sian affairs as much tas ever 1t
has stopped the reinforcement Of
garrisons, however, and several de-
tachments of troops which recently
crossed the frontier from the eau
casus, evidently intendfng to march
still farther to the southwark have
been rec2lled.
In the south, England has shown
every sign of INDIGESTION and anxiety
Il has landed marines from it's war
ships in the Persian Gulf and called
them aboard again, taken the agrees
sive in several skirmishes on shore
and then backed out of them, and
shown no inclination to make good
its utimHtum to take possession of
the southern roads unless the Per
sian government put stop TO the
disorders which the English them
| selves were stirring up
1t is no doubt natural that Eng
land should be more cautious than
| Russia The latter is able to get
! into Northern Persia by Land
marches, while the English would
have to bring their forces long dis
! tances by water.
No one imagines that the London
and St. Petersburg governments
| have finally abandoned their de-
signs against the Shahs country,
but it looks very much as If they
had reconsidered their decision that
the time was ripe for an immediate
grab. In some respects. Turkish as,
erosion seems more urgent dan
ger. The Ottoman troops are grad
ually getting possession of more and
more Persian territory in the viciu-
ity of their own frontier. The Turk
ish movement was undertaken os-
tensibly in defense of Persia AGAINST
Russia but it is strongly doubted
here whether it will surrender any
thing that 1t gets securely into its
hands.
