Kansas City Market Letter
tBy J. A. Rlckart, Correspondent

| Kansas City Stock Yards, Nov,
"a, 1913. Cattlemen were disap-
pointed with the action of the
cattle market in declining IS to IS
cents last week. A month, or two
ago expectation of better prices
for fed cattle had legitimate
basis, but few dealers now look
for any improvement before the
New Year. Commission men are
advising customers who have
cattle to feed to hold them, even
if the board bill is expensive, par
ticularly as weather conditions are
SO favorable for cattle on feed.
Many feeders however, are poss-
essed of desire to get rid of
cattle, that cannot be overcome,
in some cases even where they
have the corn on hand to carry
the feeding operations to the bitter
end. The outlook is better today,
as receipts are lighter at all mar
kets. Range cattle are less nu-
merous here today, aad the sup
ply of 10000 head is 5000 less
than was received last Monday.
Even at markets east, where liqui-
dations has been running wild,
the brakes have been applied sue
cessfully today. Prices here are
steady to 10 higher, beef grades
getting the advance, stockers and
feeders representing the steady
part of it. Prime steers might 60
little higher than what the best
brought today, 8.25 and $40.
Butcher grades caught smaller
decline last week that dressed
beet grades, and Gamers held
steady. Stockers and feeders are
a dollar lower than six weeks ago
a leading factor in the decline
being tight money, usual at this
time OF the year when banks are
accommodating cash for the show
ing to be made first of the year.
Quarantine cattle are largely
common kinds, and sell better re-
latively than cattle in native divi-
sion, top steers last week S6.75,
today 500. Hog receipts last
week were 1900 head consider
ably heavier than heretofore, but
prices are holding up pretty we'll.
Receipts today 1900, market 5
higher, nearly all the good hogs
selling at S7.85, common lights
ranging down to $3.50. Fresh
meat trade is good, which helps to
hold up prices, but packers insist
they will yet put the price down.
Average weight was I76 pounds
last week, lightest this season. but
hogs are healthy, and the market.
ing motive seems to be two fold,
to get away from high feed, and to
anticipate the packers victory in
the fight tor lower prices, should
they be victorious. Sheep and
lambs touched very low spot last
Tuesday, since when values have
advanced rs to IS cents. Receipts
are much lighter, and prices here
are better than at other points
where runs are greater, a condi-
ton that will favor patrons of
Kansas City all winter. Fat lambs
bring $500 to S7.35, yearlings
$500 to $575, wethers-up to
$500, ewes $500 to $4.75. Feed
ing stock remains in strong re-
quest, and has been immune from
the recent adversely of fed stock,
feeding lambs largely at $500 to
$6.25. h

FARM FUNDS TO Be
GIVEN BIG BANKS
Chicago and st. Louis to DiStrib-
ute Large Sum.
INTEREST RATE TO BE LOW
Official Says 1t is Necessary for Gov
eminent to Place Money in Large
ChanneIs-Senator Owens
Tells of Scheme.

Washington, Aug. 4-The $50,000,-
600 deposit of government funds about
to be made will be placed in the
banks of the large cities in the agri-
cultural regions Of the south and
west upon the condition and expecta-
ton, said treasury officials, that these
large banks will distribute the money
to the country banks at reasonable
rates of interest
While the treasury department will
not attempt to fix the rate of inter-
est, because it has no such power, it
will insist upon equitable treatment,
SO that the money will be available
for the marketing and movement of
crops at reasonable rates.
Large deposits will be made in Chi
cago and st. Louis, said John Shelton
Williams, assistant secretary of the
treasury. New Orleans and Atlanta,
Ca, also will be among those to re-
ceive a substantial share of the $780,
100000 for distribution in the south.
Many Approve Plan.
Assistant Secretary Williams said 1t
place the money in the large channels
because it would be impracticable to
pass upon the quality of commercial
paper as security if the deposits were
scattered discriminating among a
great number of country banks.
Owen Tells Advantages.
Chairman Owen of the senate COM
mittee on banking and currency made
public an open letter on the advan-
tages which would be afforded coun-
try bankers through the currency bill
Senator Owen contends in this letter
that the control and nomination of the
banking business Of the United States
is now in the hands of little group
of not more than half a dozen men,
and that this control must now be
surrendered to the public.

THE JURY MAKES A
THOROUGH EXAMINATION
And Finds John Sorefoot Guilty and
Branded as Public Nuisance.

When the old clock in the town
hall was Ginning the hour of twevle,
John Sorefoot, chained and manacled
to the sheriff, was brought into the
presence of twelve honest men for a
rigid and thorough examination under
the rules and law handed down from
the Supreme Bench of Justice. The
jury did not draw as near to John as
they had expected. 1t was a case in
which distance was far more pleasant
to the gentlemen of the jury, and
they never attempted to get in sight
of the real object, but like blood
hounds they were led by scent. And
John with his sore, tired, sweaty
sinking feet stood convicted as
public nuisance. For months and
months, yes years. he had compelled
his friends and neighbors to suffer
the torture that can only come to
those who are compelled to inhale
that ancient and long distance odor
which comes from sore, sweaty, tired
feet The odor from a lanyard is
perfume Of roses compared to the blue
fog which often rises from the
human feet. If you are afflicted
with this trouble Barker s Antiseptic
is the medicine that will cure it. For
