FARMERS HOLDING STOCK.
Clay and Lyon County Stock Men Fear
Low Markets.

Clay Center. Kan, Aug. 30.-Clay
county farmers do not seem to be
rushing their stock to market. While
the Kansas City markets show the
largest receipts in their history, the
local railway agents report that ship
ments of stock from Clay Center are
even lighter than usual at this time
of year. While hog shipments are
fairly heavy. there have been fed cat
tie shipped out. In fact, some Clay
county farmers are buying cattle to
feed. While this county raised but
very little corn, the crops of alfalfa
were fairly good and so many farmers
have Silos and plenty of forage, they
think they will have no difficulty i'll
carrying their cattle through the win
ter. The fact that so few cattle are
being shipped out of Clay county is
one of the most gratifying features of
the present month.

Emporia, Kan, Aug. 30.-Accord-
ing to statements made by the Santa
Fe railway officials at the stock yards,
Lyon county stock men are holding
their cattle for better markets. These
men say the shipments from Emporia
have not been unusually heavy but
that the shipments which have passed
through Emporia from the west have
been much more frequent than pre-
vious years. Many farmers are feed
ing their herd green corn and cotton
seed meal, as the grass in the pastures
is burnt up. Stock water is scarce and
farmers are either hauling water for
their cattle or driving them to the
rivers.
