MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, August
6, 1912 A run of IA, 900 cattle here to-
day, following 10000 yesterday, Great
ed no CONSERVATION among buyers
whatever, but on the contrary seem
ed to whet their appetites. They
have been running on short ratiOns
so long that the first chance they
have had to extend themselves this
summer has been seized with a whoop.
The bulk of the supply sold around
steady yesterday, but everything is
selling strong to Is higher today.
The ten dollar steers arrived today,
from Missouri. having bridged the
chasm from 1915, the top paid last
week. Missouri heifers sold at 1925
today Pasture cattle from Kansas
sold at the seasons best figures today,
several different shipments going at
1855, IS. 10 and IS. 10, from Greenwood
county. Shippers there, urged by
telephone to load something for to-
morrow, replied, 1T is raining here,
will wait awhile" Killers continue
to bid little stronger than feeder
buyers for steers that will finish on
a short feed. Illinois buyers bid
$40 on steers today that were taken
at $3.50 by killers Feeder buyers
are willing to pay S. 90 for good flesh
ed feeders: but packers pay $500 for
them. Order buyers have been active
here this week, and 100 car loads of
cattle went out last night from here
for slaughter at other points. Quar-
antine supply is light this week, As
cars there today, top steers $50, but
most of the steers there at 1926 to
$3.50, grass cows s3.7 to 1926, bulls
1915 $40 calves a quarter lower
this week. tops 1915. Spectators
created furry in the hog alley this
morning, paying 10 higher prices,
with top of $780, but when packers
got to week their bids were not much
more than steady, bulk of sales IS. 25
to ss.45, Sentiment regarding future
prices unanimously bullish, and for
the present the best buyers can do is
to halt the market in its upward
course temporarily. Sheep and lambs
are firm this week, spring lambs to-
day at $50, yearlings at 81 % to So 90,
wethers up to $40, ewes 81 90. A
few New Mexico lambs have been
contracted on the range at 81. so per
head, and yearlings at 1915, consid-
cred bargain price. Feeding lambs
are worth $500 to $3.50 here, per
hundred pounds.

Good Seed Wheat at Experiment Station

The Fort Hays Branch Experiment
Station is harvesting one of the finest
wheat crops in its history. The yield
from four hundred acres is estimated
at ten thousand bushels. The yield
will not be as large as that secured
from the big crop of 1910, which
averaged over thirty bushels per acre,
but the quality is superior. The grain
is plump, hard and excellent in color
having the best Western Kansas
Hard Wheat
The variety is the famous Kharkof
Turkey bearded wheat which has
proved to be one of the heaviest yield
ers at each of the state experiment
stations. This wheat is pure and
will make fine seed, and the Station
will offer most of the crop at the
price of commercial wheat plus the
loss in grading and cost of grading,
sacking and delivering to railroad
station.
The purpose is to distribute this.
choice seed wheat as widely as possible
among the farmers of the state. The
amount of wheat which may be sold
to one purchaser will be limited to
fifty bushels The wheat will be care
fully graded, sacked and delivered at
the depot at Hays for shipment for
Sl5O per bushel in lots of ten bushels
or more. A little higher charge per
bushel will be made for small orders
to pay for extra labor in handling
and shipping.
Farmers in any locality may club
together and order car of graded,
but not sacked wheat at a minimum
price of S1.40 per bushel. Millers and
dealers who will agree to distribute
to farmers the wheat in lots of fifty
bushels or less at actual cost will be
given the same privilege. Orders will
be booked and filed in the order re-
ceived as long as our supply lasts.
Part of the wheat has been cut with
binders and will be threshed at once
and shipment of seed may be made
by August 1st, if desired.

Last Sabbath the Advent people had
very interesting bible reading relat-

coming of Christ. In answering his
disciples questions, what shall be
the sign of thy coming of the end of
the World,' Christ did not say you
cannot know anything about it, but
he went on to tell them what would
take place through time. Clear down
to the generation there should see
the last sign of his coming and to
confirm that it would be SO he said,

Lord is coming, the Lord is coming"
But there is one great event above all
Others He said that this gospel of
the Kingdom shall be preached in all
the world for witness unto all
nations; and then shall the end come.
This is a special message and the
character of this message is more
fully explained in Rev. Ia: 9-12.
Surely the Lord God will do nothing
but he revealeth his secret unto his
servants the prophets NAmos 81. Be-
fore the anteluvian, the Lord sent a
to the world thru Noah and
the very same people there heard the
message and did not believe it, they
were destroyed in the flood SO now
the Lord sends his warning message

SO different languages and it will be
finished in this generation because
the Lord hath said so. Prepare to

QUESTION CLEARED UP

Longer Doubt the Evidence.
Again and again we have read of
strangers in distant towns who have

But Wa-Keeney's pertinent question
has always been Has anyone here in
Wa-Keeney been cured?" The word
of stranger living hundred miles
away may be true, but it cannot have
the same weight with us as the word
of our own citizens. whom we know
and respect, and whose evidence we
can so easily prove.
