says that at no time within his reco.

been so important as it is now IN
former years just enough of it was

now every bit of the prairie hay is cut
and it is carefully baled and stored

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug. 49,
There was further spreading OF values
between high grade and low grade
cattle last week, and the upper crust
became thinner as the end of the
week approached. 1t was plain that
the market was being undermined, and
a good sized run of cattle today would
have finished 1t. Dealers expected a
break of at least half a dollar this
week on all but few prime cattle,
but the run proved to be small enough
to save the situation, $4,000 head here,
and light at all the markets. Shippers
evidently know thing or two. Prices
on all kinds are steady to strong to-
day, on both killing kinds, and on
stockers and feeders. Prime steers
brought $1,000 today. though there
was no real toppy cattle here. Kan
sas pasture cattle stopped at $500,
and ranged downwards to $500. Quar-
antine receipts today 1875 cars, market
steady on the good kinds, weak on
trash. Twenty thousand cattle were
bought for the country here last
week, the market holding firm all
week except for some clean up sales
Friday. More of these classes could
have been sold, and there are plenty
of buyers here today. Stockers range
from $500 to $3.50 largely, feeders
$500 to $3.50. Some choice Colorado
feeders, 100 pounds, brought $7.35
Thursday Calves broke so to rs
cents last week, steady today, best |
veals SSaa. Only $500 hogs came in
today, and the market is a little
higher, top 1857; bulk $3.50 to $3.50.
Heavy hogs advanced Is cents last
week, while light weights and butcn.
srs gained 25 cents, packers showing
preference for the lighter weights.
Sheep and lambs are at the bottom of
he recent break, sales today on a
weaker basis, top spring lambs $3.50.
au mis- $500 today. Wethers are sell
ng around $4.OO and ewes $3.50, for

nand for mutton despite the low
rice. They say retailers are holding

SEATS
GOING FAIRLY

The sale of tickets for the Harry
Corson Clarke musical comedy season,
which opens at the Opera House on
Monday next, is progressing well. AL
ready over one hundred season tickets
have been sold and, in order to avoid
at failure to get good
seats, request is made that early ap-
plication be made. Mr.. Douthitt, who
has charge of the booking, states that
he could have sold at least another
twelve rows of seats for the Kaai con-
cert had they been available, AS it
YVES, a great many people were disap-
pointed at their inability to get the
seats they would have liked, but it was
only their belated application that
caused this. Mr.. Douthitt would like,
therefore, to see even an increased
activity among those who would pur-
chase tickets.
