in 1909 there were I9S, 994 dogs in this
state and only 1921 sheep. But
that's not the worst of it: Dogs

In Kiowa county $50 meek and lowly
ba-baas died to satisfy the blood
thirstiness of dogs. In Kiowa county
there were 8S5 dogs. 1t probably has
a thousand now and fewer sheep.
Kansas is well fitted for sheep breed
ing. 1t is said of sheep in the
biennial report of the board of agri-
culture, a few years ago, that mo

Kansas City Stock Yards, January
3, 1911.
Bad weather yesterday kept good
many shippers from loading, and the
supply today on the cattle market
was light for Tuesday, 1000 head.
Buyers understand the cause of the
reduced supply, and are not geing be-
yond immediate necessities today,
knowing the deficiency must be made
up later. Shippers dislike to market
stuff when the weather is extremely
cold, as fills are not satisfactory as a
rule when cattle are shivering from a
sudden drop in the temperature. The
cattle that arrived here Sunday, and
were fed all the hay they would eat,
took on a good fill yesterday in spite
of the zero weather. Prices advanced
anywhere from strong to 10 cents to-
day, and good heavy fed steers are
said to be quarter higher than the
middle of last week. Prime steers
sell at $3.50 to $3.50 and short fed
steers generally at S5.75' to 1925,
string of fair to good Nebraska steers
sold here today at $500, after passing
y
day. Butcher stuff is getting up into
stiff values, most of the COWS at So. rs
to $500, heifers at 1925 to 5000, bulls
S4.00 to S5.25, veal calves $500 to
$3.50. Advancing prices on fat cattle
are stimulating the demand for
country grades and prices on same
look renumerative, stock steers sell
ing almost as high as feeders, at 81. 90
to $40, feeders S4. 75 to $500.
Hog run today is 5000 head, and
the market is Is higher. Orders were
of an urgent nature, and the final
close was shade weaker, but it did
little damage. Bulk of the supply
sold at s7-95 to s8.O5, and the top was
SS.05, all weights bringing the price.
Shortage in hog supplies continues,
and no signs of any relief are in
sight Prospective receipts for jan
uary are less than 200, 900 head, which
is only 40 per cent of the run three
years ago in January, when more than
half a million hogs arrived here.
With such prospect, owners feel
they have cause for not being afraid
of much of a break, and are inclined
to feed for weight at present corn
prices.
Sheep and lambs are coming a little
more freely this week, 5000 here to-
day, but the market is strong to 10
higher Kansas fed lambs brought
s6-25 today, which is not quite the
limit for choice lambs, yearlings
worth s4.75 to $3.50, according to
weight and quality, wethers general
ly at $500 to s4-30, ewes $3.50 to 800.
Lambs sold little lower yesterday,
sheep held steady, and this descrip
tion win likely fit good many mar
kets this winter, account of the
larger number of lambs feeding.

A Freak

The other day having occasion to
visit one of our neighboring towns
and walking. up back alley as it was
l called my companions attention to
the fact that small mule grazing
in a back yard had wooden leg. He
did not think So. So coming to a
gate we turned in to a neigbboring
yard with only a fence between us
and the mule. On closer examination
we discovered a mule apparently be-
tween one and two years old, walking
around and grazing, with one wooden
leg from the knee down. Examining
still closer we discovered that the
left hind foot was like a mules
while the right hind foot was like a
cows. The right front foot divided
in two long branches or two different
feet. The left front foot apparently
- right nearly to tie knee where a
fifth leg branched off on the side,
making wide curve and then bend
ing down with the appearance of
long slim foot which, did not reach
the ground. The other part, or main
leg, growing smaller and crooked,
terminating in a small foot six or
seven inches from the ground. The
balance of which was substituted
with a wooden leg, being strapped
on above the knee and around the
forearm. The wooden leg was very
much the same in appearance as a
mans foot. This mule was quite a
curiosity. 1t was apparently in the
best of health, peaceably grazing on
the grass in the back yard. And the
thought occurred, why did not some
Snowman have this freak on exhibit
tion? Not knowing the parties that
owned him we did not learn any
further particulars Indepen-
dent.

Valuable Remedy

W. D. Lindsey of Moran, Oklahoma,
contributes the following to the St.
Louis Globe-Democrat, and this pa
per is requested to reproduce it:
1 hand you herewith important in
formation in regard to cattle that
feed in. cornstalk fields. Dry corn
stalks eaten by cattle, is causing the
death of many. The same may cas-
lily be prevented by giving one pint of
salt containing three tablespoonsfuI
of turpentine, dissolved in three pintS
of warm water, given in a drenching
bottle, even after the animal is down
or down or unable to walk. 1t can be
relieved in thirty minutes perman-
emily cured.
After giving the drench, rub one
half pint of turpentine on the animal
just behind the shoulders. Rub the
turpentine on both sides of the
animal and along the neck veins from
the jaws to the brisket. This will
promptly relax the nervous system
that is the cause of the death. The
salt will imediately penetrate the dry
husk in the stomach, while the tur-
pentine entering the blood will coun-
teract the nerve trouble produced by
the congestion of the stomach, caus-
ed by the dry stalks and husks con-
tanned therein. 1t is not caused by
any fungus or microbe on the stalks
as alleged by many persons
/ believe the above also to be the
most reliable remedy known for horse
collie even in the fiatulento stage 1t
will relieve and permanently cure in
thirty miuufeS

TRIUMPH POTATOES
 PLAYING OI)T

For the information of farmor. and potato raisers generally uo publish the appended letta, While the letter is simply an ey tract from the packer undo, date of Dec. 24th it was sent to I B. Stone from the offices of H Whiteside, Louisville, Ky. The letter follows:
 Columbia, Tenn, Dec. 22-S B. Calender of Callender &Cn in speaking of this seasons 500 ond crop Triumph potatoes in Maury county said: "The second crop Triumph potatoes, as has been the case for several seasons past, were almost a failure; there not being over one.ffth of tba usual crop. Surely the scepter has departed from Israel. Maurv county in the days gone by with her 300 or 400 cars of second crop Triumph potatoes was some. what of a factor in the potato world, but now she has nothing worth while, and it is all because the Triumph potato has run out
 T can remember distinctly the first time l ever saw this potato dug here. In one field it was making 75 barrels of shipping stock to the acre and just across the way 100 barrels, but now l5 to 25 barrels to the acre is con- sidered an extra good yield.
 The Maury county farmers still stick to the Triumph and consequently still make no pota- toes. They claim that the South will have nothing else, so here we go getting worse every year"

On the Jan. Is 1910 in rash mom- ent unknowingly to her family she married. She had only lived with her husband a few days at a time in all amounting to about a month. Everything has been done by every one concerned to make her see the bright side of life, but for one year she has been Respondent and was so tired of life that she made several at tempts before she accomplished the work.
