Kansas City Stock Yards, Nov lS.-
Aside from the cold reception accord
ed middle class steers last week, in
cluding the warmed up variety, and a
tame finish to the trade in stockers
and feeders, there was a fine market
on cattle. She stuff and low priced
steers held up firm, prime steers would
have sold all right had there been any
offered. and offerings from the range
states advanced 10 to 25 cents, the lat
ter showing good killing percentages.
About 100 loads of Old Mexico cattle
were included. steers around $500,
COWS 1855. weights from 500 to ZOO
lbs. Cattle from the Republic are com
ing across freely. but the net contrbu-
ton to the beef supply from this source
is not so great as indicated by the
number of head because of the light
average weight Of the cattle. The run
today is $4,000 head here, market
strong to 10 higher Short fed steers
are selling better today, but owners
may expect to be met at the market
with the seasonable argument that
poultry is more plentiful this season
tha nusual, and is cheaper, that pork
and mutton are relatively cheaper than
a year ago, and that the market for
plain classes of beef can, therefore, be
asily overstocked. Colder weather will
put life into the beef trade. Stockers
and feeders are stronger today, with
plenty of buyers in the field. Stock
ers sell at $3.75 to $3.50, feeders $4.25
to 1915, the best kinds about so cents
higher than year ago at this time.
Quarantine cattle came in freely last
week, and the quality was better than
formerly. Forty cars arrived in that
division today market 10 higher,
steers $4.00 to $5.40.
There was a strong demand from
packers all of last week for hogs and
the 10000 head that came sold at
stronger prices, the week closing with
a net gain of to 10 cents Quality
was better all around, few loads OF
really choice heavy hogs showing up
and less trashy light stuff. More pigs
arrived than during the previous week
but they came spasmodically, from re-
stricted territory, and were not the
outpouring from all over the country
experienced a short time ago The run
is 5000 today, which is three thousand
more than the early estimate, but the
market is 8 to 10 higher, and practi
cally as high as st. Louis and Chi
cago, per pound Top $6.52lR, bulk
$500 to $3.50

he said, calling attention to the table.
She flushed prettily, looking almost
as young as she had in his dreams of
the morning, as she replied:

He smiled happily at her; then the
smile faded, and he sighed as he sank
into a chair.

A smile lowered over the woman
face as she fitted here and there,

Then she slipped behind a chair, and
leaning over whispered with burning
cheeks:

through the crisp country air along a
winding path which led to ram

AS the last turn brought him in

upon trim, well-kept cottage, and a
soft, grooming song, in voice which
reawakened the tender memories of

Half believing that it must be fancy
leading him still, he entered the house
softly, and, following the voice, went
into the inner room, and stood in the
glow of the warm freight.

singer turned as his shadow fell
across the light, and then stood white
and trembling.

was only to find that fifteen years
