Stockyard Notes.

Packers have been confidently ex
pectirg the interrupted run of Texas
cattle to resume in response to the re-
cent so cent advance, but have en-
countered disappointment. The south
west is in much better condition than
a month ago. and liquidation has abb
solutely stopped.
1t is significant that while native
cattle are considerably lower than
year ago the range season opened at
higher average prices. A consignment
of fourteen cars Of Sandhill cattle that
got in Tuesday made an average Of
| SO higher than at the same time last
year and they were not as big dressers
as then. being in lighter flesh.
| For a strictly choice COW the dealers
are demanding $50 and upward, but
sales above $50 are few, most of the
good cows selling around S55. fair
to good class at s45@52 and the cows
| of inferior class that can be bought
down at s3o@4o are of a type that men
who know the points Of a useful cow
would not give q second look.
| The deluge of pigs has subsided,
consequent on recent rains and little
stuff is no longer accumulating. Good
pigs were wanted, shippers paying as
high as $3.50 for $50 pound stuff.
Iowa shippers report very meager
rainfall as yet, not enough to carry the
corn crop thru to a satisfactory finish,
and the potato crop is practically a
failure.
Lindsey Thomas. of Earlham, had a
load Of 1,17s pound steers that sold at
$3.50 Mr.. Thomas reports a lack OF
rain and early corn suffering, but oats
thra shing out good.
Charles L. Fleenor, Of Yarmouth. was
here with a carload Of hogs Of his own
feeding, averaging 246 pounds and sold
at 81 per cwt.
NJ. ]. Seeds & Son, Of Mediapolis, had
a consignment OF cattle here Of their
own feeding. twenty head averaged L.
1872 pounds selling at $500 per cwt.
Sam Melick of Whitten, had hogs
here around 800 pounds that sold al

Chicago July 27.-No great volume
of business is being done in the stock
er alleys. Light cattle We're slow: heshy
feeders firm, but only in nomina
sense. as that trade has been practi-
cal'y extinguished by demand from
killers for cheap cattle consequent or
the cessation of the recent big Texas
run. Buyers with orders for fieshy
feeders have concluded that it is rot
an opporture moment to attempt to
fill them. and practically abandoned
the field. What a load of good feshy
cattle would be worth TO country
buyer is problematical. as killers snap
that kind up like so many hot cakes
Such cattle are quotable to s5.25, as 1t
is doubtful if feeders would pay more
The general run Of feeders selling at
s+.35N4.75 look a point higher than a
week ago. but they have not partfci-
pated in the rise on fat cattle unless
they carry a kill Most of the feeders
weighing 900 to 600 pounds sold at

of lack Of something to trade with.

The official figures feel that at the
close of the fiscal year there had been
dug from the Culebra Cut 65,514,S65
yards and there remained TO be dug
1S671.S59 yards. The section is, there
fore, IS per cent completed. The re-
markable fact shown by the figures of
the excavation from year to year is
this. that the amount Of material re-
moved in the Culebra Cut has increas-
ed steadily This is at variance with
the belief Of the canal officials as ex-
pressed when they first began excava-
tion. Then, 1t was the common opinion
that excavation would diminish as the
bottom Of the canal prism was reached
and the work increased in difficulty.
But it was not figured that the in
crease in perfection OF organization
and in efficiency would more than
counterbalance the difficulties.
The yardage removed in the last
fiscal year amounted to 16.221.672.
From this it is apparent that by the
end of this fiscal year, that is by next
June 80, the Culebra Cut ought to be
about finished.
The reports show the excavation per
steam shovel has steadily increased
from year to year.
Less inconven ence from slides has
been experienced than was anticipated.
Just now, there are no slides in mo-
ton. In the meantime. the plan Of
sowing grass seed and raising grass to
arrest the slides is being carried out.
Taking the canal section as whole.
the excavation last fiscal year was the
largest on record. 1t amounted to 49,
479,S42 yards. which excelled 1909, the
