MEAT MARKET STRONG.
Drouth in the Plain States Has Not
Exerted Bad Influence.

| Kansas City Stock Yards, August
| %, 19l3-Weather conditions have
not exerted nearly as much influence
on cattle prices as was expected and
| feared when the drouth in parts OF
the corn country set in in the middle of
| July. Cattlemen in the dry belt have
been resouceful in holding their cat
| tie and avoiding any sacrifice. De
mand for stock cattle and feeders from
those sections that have good corn
prospects, namely, parts OF Missouri.
| Iowa. Illinois and other States east,
has been greater here this fall than
ever before Cattlement from east OF
the Mississippi say that their country
is entirely bare of cattle, and that the
desire for cattle there is greater than
ever before. both because of this scar
city, coupled with good corn pros
poets there, and also because OF the
hattering outlook for the market this
winter on finished beef cattle. In the
pasture sections of the dry belt fewer
of the cattle have become fat because
of the short grass, and more are in the
feeder stage. Owners are soliciting
bankers for help. that they may fatten
the cattle on cottOnseed meal, alafaifa,
and other feeds. and thus have a bet
ter chance to pay out on them
Money is easier since the first of Aug
ust than prior to that date. and there
is disposition to extend loans. Thus
from the native territory there will
be quick finish to the run on fat
grass cattle, and strong competition
from killers for the smaller number
offered and also a reduced number of
stock cattle and feeders, with maxi
mum demand for them Range cat
tie owners have every reason to ex-
pect high market here all fall for
their cattle, of every description.

During the storm of Thursday even

of the valley on both the East and
West forks of the Walker River. This
is the third time this summer that
the Morgan, Wichman, Poll and Fail

been subjected to serious damage by
storms and some of the people there
are thinking of seeking other homes.
On the West Walker the late storm

ALUNITE IN ARIZONA AND
NEVADA.
Potash Bearing Mineral Found by U.
S. Geologist in These States.

Aluite is mineral with theoret-
ical content of ia per cent potash
(k2O) and 81 per cent aluminla.
While the mineral is seldom found
pure in nature, its deposits are OF i'm
portance as possible source OF both
potash and aluumina, and interest
therefore attaches to several of the
recent discoveries OF this mineral by
biologists of the United States Geo
logical Survey.
A recent investigation OF the NO
gales region, in southern Arizona, by
+. c.. Schrader, of the Survey, reveal
ed deposit of alunite. Analyses of
rock samples collected from the Even
ing Star copper prospect by Mr.:
Schrader showed large percentages OF
alumina and potash, and while the
discovery of the alunite was only in
cidental to the investigation OF the
copper deposits, it has served to sug-
gest that other alunite deposits may
be found in this formation. which oc-
cupies an area of many square miles.
Mn Schrader states that the porphyry
belt in which the alunite was found
would commend itself for prospect
ing in case practical process is de
veloped for the reduction of alunite to
soluble potash salts, and in the light
of the fact that study of the alunite
deposits near Marysvale, Utah, and in
other parts of the Western States by
the United States Geological Survey
indicates that the mineral alunite may
become at some future time an i'm
portant source of alumina." To those
who are interested in prospecting for
alunite the simple test described in
Geological Survey Bulletin 5ll would
be of interest.
Another deposit OF alunite discov-
cred by Mr.. Schrader is at Bovard.
Nevada, where. he says. the rocks
show as high as 10 and II per cent
of potash. The actual extent OF the
deposits OF the Bovard district is not
known. as the character of the rock
was not recognized by Mr.. Schrader
on the ground. so that no prediction
of the possible value is justified. A
