LOS ANGELES CATTLE.

General business conditions
seem to be improving on the coast,
and by fall if money is plentiful
there will be a good strong cattle
demand.
Los Angeles packers are over
run with beef at present. Fat
steers from fed districts bring
ing Z cents and COWS 6 cents and
grass fat cattle Scents for steers
and 5 cents for cows. Veal is
bringing 81 to $7.50
There are various unimportant
runners and happening in the cat
tie trade, the Union Stock yards
which have been selling stock,
announce through the papers
that they will be ready for cat
tie the latter part of Augest when
they will have a portion of the
corrals ready. A visit a few
weeks ago showed seven or eight
men at work on corrals, wheth-
er or not a Union Stock yards
will succeed remains to be seen.
While there is no question but
that it would be good thL.-g for
the cattlemen if established and
run proberly but without the
support of the packers who deal
direct the outcome aims to be
seen, and some people state that
no union stock yards can be sue

compared with 1910, and of 32O,

crease over 1911 but still below
1908 figures, a number which
would not justify the shortage Of
meat SO much commented on al
present if the demand had re-
mained normal. However, the
demand from abroad has doubled
in recent years; hence the scar

Notwithstanding the climate draw
backs the country has responded
to an extraordinary demand OF
its cattle without greatly reducing
the stock since 1908, and the pre-
sent complications of production

There are also statements made
that Australian cattle will be ship

would have to be constructed as
even then with the prices of cat
tie in Australia this is a very
doubtful venture. The freight
is some $50 per head by regular
boats which makes shipment out
of the question.
The announcement of some
twenty eight of the retail meat
dealers petitioningfor the munich
pal abbattoir for Los Angeles is
interesting, but if a municipal
abbattoir was not large or extern
sive enough, it would do little to
affect the beef situation, and
would merely provide killing
quarters for a few butchers who
would use it from time to time.
Early rains in California will
mean a tremendous demand for
spring cattle, in Arizona. About
the worst course Arizona growers
could take would be to contract
too early for next spring.
California sells supplies, fruit,
and general necessities to Arizo-
ma.
Arizona sells to California a
great porion of it's cattle and
many of it's sheep, and from
Phoenix much hay.

portions.
The interests of the two states
Arizona and California are bound
up in each other.
Recent statement give 1T, ,942
cattle, 81, 337 calves, 500, 309
sheep as the number slaughtered
under government inspection in
California in 1912.
Northern Arizona ships yearly
about twenty thousand head of
aged steers and COWS, which
either go directly to California or
to Phoenix and later when fat, to
California.
Southern and Northern Cen
tral Arizona ships altogether in
the spring about 10000 head of
stock cattle and yearlings to Cali
fornia, and feeders to Imperial
and Phoenix, which reach Cali
fornia later.
Therefore fully half the cattle
being killed in California come
originally from some parts of Ari-
zona. This is the reason that the
California market is most impor-
tant of all to Arizona.
Colorado and Oregon drop in for
thousands of steers, but the de-
mand from those states is spor-
adic and dependant entirely on
prices in other parts of country
and most of such demand is purely
speculative. Commission firms
buy when their banks will help
them out and then they sell
around later in their own states
but on a declining market or with
tight money that demand falls by
the wayside.

Oysters as Food.

Oysters come nearer in composition
to cows milk than do most other
meats, as all the four kinds of nutri-
ments needed are present in good
degree. Oysters have larger excess
of the flesh building substance rela-
tive to the other constituents than
milk, so we balance the ration" by
addition of starchy food and fats
when eating oysters, thus securing a
good meal at a cost that compares ia
vorably with that when other meats
are chosen.-Prof. Julius Nelson OF

BEAUTIFUL MOUND GROVE
IN EXCELLENT CONDITION..

A visit to Mound Grove last Sat
ureay, while viewing the work on
the new John Anderson highway,
found a force of pickers and packers
preparing the golden fruit for ship
ment to northern markets. The
packing house is commodious and up
to date in all particulars, every mod
ern appliance for handling the fruit
being used and all combining to form
very interesting process, in the
washing. drying. selecting, sizing
and packing of the golden globes.
The trees are looking very green
and thrifty with no signs sof the
White fly in evidence. l.. B. Knox
stated that the fruit had wasted
ioadly in the early part of the sea-
son, owing to the unseasonably warm
weather. but that it would still reach
about $4,000 boxes, half of which
lave already been shipped. 1t is the
policy at Mound Grove to hold the
fruit until late in the season when
it is better in quality and prices
range higher.
| This handsome grove, or group of
groves originated 80 years ago with
the budding of a natural wild, sour
orange grove and now includes, with
intervening windbrakes OF forest
trees, 102 acres of citrus fruits, with
probably 10000 or 10000 or more
trees, an accurate count never hag.

BLACK LETTERS AND WHITE.
Tho Former More Distinct az a Dis
tance Than the Latter.


There is tendency on the part Of
railroads to adopt signs with white
letters on black background. not re-
alizing that the black letter on white
background is easier to read and can
be seen at a greater distance. This
follows in an interesting way from the
structure of the retina of the eye.
The impression of a letter at the
limit of vision is received on the ends
of a small bundle of nerves which con-
vey to the brain sort of mosaic Inn
preston. A nerve can only transmit
to the brain information as TO whether
or not a ray of light is falling upon
1t. and when a nerve Is partly in the
light and partly in darkness the sensa-
ton is the same as though all of II was
in the light.
1t follows. therefore. according to
the Scientific American. that all nerves
on the dividing edge between any
black and white area transmit the SEN
sation of light SO that all white lines
and white areas appear wider and all
black lines and black areas appear
narrower than they really are.
Black letters grow thinner at the
limit of vision and are still recognize
able, while at the same distance white
letters grow thicker and cannot be dis
tinguished. There are circumstances
when 1t is necessary to use white let
ters. but In such cases legibility will
be improved IL they are made with a
thin stroke and strongly lighted. Black
letters are more distinct If made with
q heavy stroke.
