MARKET IS ON UPWARD TREND.

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS, Dec. Seattle receipts last week were 34,0O0 head, which was H. 900 head less than same last year, though 4,OOO more than in the previous week.
 Warm weather has been against meat consumption, but the moderate supply found a ready outlet at bet ter prices, heavy steers selling with least gain, light steers Is to 20 cents higher, cows and butcher grades 25 to 59 cents higher, stockers and feeders Is to 25 cents higher. The aales of fat cattle at the In- ternational had an adverse influ- ence on the heavy steer market. The supply today is l4,OOO head, and the market is steady to strong. Rains in Kansas last week brought in some cattle today from wheat fields. The feature sale today was some steers weighing 1867 pounds, at S9, the highest price paid here for heavy steers in more than month. Yearlings sold at $9.l5 last week, and some fancy heifers at S925, but only specialties bring S9 or more.
 Chicago has been getting many we'll finished steers and quotes high dressing animals at $S25 to SS73. Veals advanced 50 cents last week, and are 25 to 50 cents higher to- day, bulk at S1O to S1l. A run of 62 cars of quarantine cattle, largely steers, is selling today at So to S6.S5. There is a better demand from the country for stockers and feeders than heretofore, good l,OOO to IO50-pound feeders today at % to %.35 and good stock year lings at S6.35 to S. The drop in temperature since Saturday IS help to the meat trade, and deal CTS expect the market to rule steady to firm for the next week or two if receipts continue moderate.

"SALOMY JANE" BIG
SUCCESS At POLLS
Gertrude BondhiII and Mark
Kent Win Special Honors in
Play of Plains.

When Bret Harte penned that thrilling
story Of the Western plaIns-"Salomy
Jane'-which the masterhand of Paul
Armstrong subsequently whipped into
just as tense melodrama he evidently
had just such a blase creature of the
wilds in his mind as Miss Gertrude
Bondhill, Of the Poll Players is during
the presentation of the play this week.
The author, too, conceived just such a
mental picture of a genuine Southern
colonel as Mark Kent portrays-that
is. If the Southern 'colonels' of that
day were the same IN characteristics as
those of the present.
Both Miss Bondhill and Mr.. Kent
play their parts of the now famous
melodrama with an ease and truth that
makes the average playgoer avow their
acting the best OF anything seen in local
| stock this summer. And II Is only with
vivid recollections Of other performances
of the play that one can venture 10
say that the lions share of the credit
/ goes to Miss Bondhill and Mr.. Kent in
the current presentation. Robert Cain,
| in the role of the hero, known simply
as THE Man." plays his part with an
ease and truth commensurate with the
delineations Of Miss Bondhill and Mr..
Kent. So does Miss Helen Tracy, who
as Lie Heath, the wife Of Red Pete,
a desperado, has several opportunities
to show dramatic power. She acQuits
herself admirably in every chance given
her.
The little Misses Mary and Doris
Eaton, who played the parts of Mary
Ann and Anna May, Lie Heath's chill
dren. act well. and lend naturalness
to the several scenes in which they are
figures which would probably be marred
by children of less talent Dudley Haw-
ley adds a streak of his own individu-
ality to his portrayal of the gentleman
gambler, and his smooth work is effec:
tive support to the general success OF
the play. Francis Ball as Madison Clay.
Salomy's father, gives pleasing char.
acterization of a faithful father and
good citizen in a lawless community.
Master Harry Cooper has a share in
the general success Of the play also, and
as a playmate of the two little girls
acuuits himself as a real actor.
Minor roles are capably enacted by
Frank Shannon, Thomas Williams, L.

novel string of beans ready for service

came about this way. according to the
owner of the garden:
Williams was afraid that the bean
vines would be in danger of destruction

on the ordinary poles. He had planted
several rows OF beans, each about a
city square in length, and decided to
guard against the blowing down of the
poles by stretching wire between the
poles Lightning struck the wires over
which the beans were creeping the other

JESSIE WILSON AIDS
GIRL FROM COUNTRY
Presidents Daughter One of
0riginators of Eight Weeks
Club of Y. w. c. A.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-Miss Jessie
Wilson, daughter of the President,
was one of the originators OF the
Eight Weeks Club, a part Of the
Young Women's Christian Associa-
ton. Of whose national board Miss
Wilson is a member. Reporos just
received at the association head
quarters in this city indicate that
Miss Wilson's idea is taking tremen-
dously
This is the first season, yet within
the last six weeks more than 500 of
these clubs have been formed. They
cover almost every State, but are
most numerous in the Middle West.
Seventy-five colleges are furnishing
leaders for these clubs, including
Miami, Oberlin, Ohio Wesleyan,
Goucher, where Miss Wilson was ed
ucated; Randolph-Macon and Grinell.
Work For College Women.
This Eight Weeks Club plan gets
hold of young women in the small
towns and in the country through
young women from the colleges. 1t is
Miss wilson's idea that women for
tunate enough TO have parents to pay
all of their expenses through COL
lege ought in turn to be willing to
do something for other women. A
good many have their own automo-
bIles, and the Y. W c. A does not
hesitate to suggest to such young
women methods TO use their automo-
biles to help others. Hence the Eight
Weeks Club, the time between spring
and fall terms of the colleges, with
a reasonable period for all needed
vacations.

girls get visions of the country and
come to know the strong and healthy
country girls. The city needs the coun-

and this club plan helps the city to get

Another part Of the club plan is to
help the country girl to help herself
and her community. There are home
culture, social service, domestic science,
religious education, Christian efficiency
and a score of other lines. Reports al
ready reaching the Y. W. c. A. head
quarters in this city and transmitted
to Miss Wilson UP in New Hampshire
indicate that in several countr ydistricts
churchyards have been moved and
flowers planted, quite changing the as
pect Of the places.

In some other districts choirs have
been formed for churches, not for sum-

them. Books to read have been sug-

to the colleges next fall as a result OF
this first year of effort.
The Young Women's Christian Asso-
citation has plans for its Christian effi-
cheney campaign beginning in October.
This campaign was decided upon at the
last national convention, held in Rich

MEAT EXPERTS TRIP
IS misunderstood
Secretary Of Agriculture Ex-
plains Real Object of South
ern Mission.

DR.. A. d. Melvin. chief of the Bureau
of Animal Industry. and DR.. Edward
c. joss, expert Of that bureau, have
not gone to foreign meat producing
countries to encourage exports to the
United States. They viii neither en-
courage or discourage business with the
United States. according to Secretary
of Agriculture Houston They are to
study conditions under which meat
would be prepared for export to the
United States In case 1t was sent here
This distinction was drawn by Sec
retary Houston, when his office was
flooded with protests from farmers and
others, who declared that the depart
ment had better encourage meat pro-
dlction at home than to encourage for
eign competition with home growers.
Trip Made for Protection.
In explaining the objects Of the de-
partment, Secretary Houston said:
The data gained by these foreign
inspectors will be directly useful to the
Government in seeing that meat offered
for admission to the country conforms
not only to the meat inspection act, but
also to the food and drugs act. which
has recently been held to have juris-
diction In interstate commerve over
meat and meat food products, says
the Secretary's circular.
Armed with this information, the de-
partment can cooperate effectively with
the Secretary of the Treasury in keep
ing out Of the United States all meat
produced from diseased cattle, all meats
slaughtered In insanitary establish
ments, or improperly refrigerated, pack
ed, and shipped, and all meat products
prepared under conditions that would
not be permitted in the Federally in
spected establishments Of the United
States.
Inspection Necessary.
This foreign inspection of meat
has become very necessary irrespec-
tive of changes in the tariff on meat
for the reason that since 1906 the
total domestic production of cattle
has been so per cent below the actual
demand. In other words, this means
that the production of cattle has
fallen off while the population has
been Increasing; The department Is
trying to meet this domestic situation
by carrying on extensive campaigns
for the eradication CT the tick, which
more than anything else has prevent
ed the Southern States from supply
ing the normal yield OF meat stock
THE Department of Agriculture
considers 1t highly important to have
full information about the actual con-
dition of meat production to the coun-
tries most likely to ship to the United
States in order that II may Join with
the Treasury Department in eXclud-
ing all diseased, filthy. and undesir-
able meat offered for entry"
