The annual output of cattle for Arizona during the last three years has greatly exceeded the an nual output for several years pre- ceeding, and may be regarded as slightly above normal. During the year ending June 30, 1909, there were inspected for slaughter within the territory 65,I62 head, and shipped to points outside of Arizona, I37,2 ,2oo head, making a total output of POP, ,37I head.

LOS ANGELES
Los Angeles, Dec. IE

Los Angeles, Dec. IS.
 The ruling price on fat cows delivered Los Angeles AIS steers prime fed, $50 strong.
 Fed lambs are bringing 6.75 to 700, calves 6.5o, hogs 6.5o, can ners $50 to 3.75, whereas fat fed bulls are bringing 3.75 to 400.
 Lack of rain has discouraged some California spring grass feed CTS who will turn loose a portion of their cattle if rain does not come within a few weeks. One bunch of fine Northern Arizonas and Utahs mixed four year old steers which have been months on feed and cost .525 per cwt., |, delivered, is being offered at 500. A dry year is not expected, how ever, and if rains come soon in California cattle will be held strong.
 Some of the Northern Arizona cattlemen have already bought their spring yearlings. As the high prices of cattle tempted many men in certain districts throughout Arizona, Nevada and Utah to sell COWS, it is expected that there will be a shortage in spring yearling steers and very few twos and threes.
 Certain districts in Nevada are short on spring cattle and south ern Utah will supply several thousand less than last year.
 From the evident reports in newspapers there is a considera- ble effort being made to break the price of cattle but so far unsuc- cessfully. The SIS, 1000, ,ooo loss of beef sales, owing to the re- ported action of the British gov ernment of not allowing American packers to bid on army and navy supplies, is a mere bagatelle, as compared to the total beef con sumption. The Pacific Coast alone uses some 500, 900 beef an nually or about $25, 1000, ,ooo and the total beef killed during a year probably in the United States ex- ceeds in value $500, ,ooo 1000, so a loss of the amount of British con tracts stated above, could not affect the market for more than a few weeks.
 People are becoming more nu- merous and cattle are getting scarcer each year. Temporary panics or financial causes may affect the cattle market for time, possibly year or two but not indefinitely, and some men conf- dently expect European prices for beef within the next few years.
 The beet top feeders made big | money this year and there will be

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER
(By ;, A. Ricl,art, Correspondent :

Kansas City stock yards, Dec. I7, 'II.-The unsatisfactory cattle market last week, when values declined 10 to 35 cents, operated toward a small Monday supply here today. The early estimate of 75oo head proved too small though, the final count for the day being close to ten thousand head. This meager supply re- suited in steady to strong market, in spite of the burdensome run of 32,ooo cattle at Chicago today, with a sharp decline in prices there. Evidently Illinois n d Iowa shippers are cutting loose freely. Some say 1t is because of the severe ravages of hog cholera in those states, and the high price of corn is probably also a factor. Whatever the reason, a good many cattle are getting out of the way, which may benefit the market later in the winter. Feeders in different localities complain about the poor fattening qualities of corn this year. Complaint is made that the corn is either wormy, or lacking in oil proper ties, though in appearance nor nal. The high prices paid this month for prime cattle are alluring to feeders who can secure the right kind of nutriment, and coun- try kinds of cattle remain firm. They are selling higher today. Bulk of the native fed steers sell at 5.75 to 7.25, native COWS 400 to 5.25, heifers up to 700, Colo rado beef steers 500 to 5.So, cows 400 to 500, quarantine fed steers 4.So to 5.7o today. Sev- eral large strings of Osage steers sold here today at 5.3o to 5.7o, o5o to 1I8o lbs.
 Sheep and lambs sold mean last week, declines of 25 to 50 cents being enforced, especially on low grade stuff. The run is Sooo to- day, market steady, Kansas fed western lambs at 5.eo. Packers will not want much stuff that grades below the best till after the holidays, dealers assert. Best wethers are worth 3.75, yearlings 4.25 to 500, ewes 2.75 to 3.25. The season is over for feeding stock, and some half fat lambs went to packers last week at low figures, for want of buyer from the country to take them.
