MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, April @,
1914. Steers are selling 10 to 25 high
er this week, and fair number of
good to choice natives are included
in the run. Numerous droves of
heavy steers sold at s.. Is to SO today,
and S7.50 to S. rs caught the bulk
Medium and cheap cattle are Is to 25
higher than. week ago. Four loads
of the Stark Bros. southern cattle,
fed in their Nebraska feed lots sold
here last Thursday at $3.50, four
loads Monday at 81. Is and four loads
today at the same price, weighing a
round S75 pounds in each case.
Heifers and yearlings sell strong if
well finished, some today at 80, but
medium grades are sticky. Cows and
butcher grades were strong yesterday,
but they are weak to 10 lower today.
The tendency on butcher grades at
this season is toward weakness and
when Southern grasserS get to
moving more freely, week or two
hence, COW stuffs and butcher grades
generally are apt to get bumped.
Good to choice heavy Colorados sold
higher than last week Middle grade
North Texas and Oklahoma quaran-
tine steers sold at $40 to $3.50 today.
South Texas grassers are needed here,
and would fill bare spot with ad-
vantage to shippers. Stockers and
feeders have recovered the loss of 10
to 35 cents last week already, and are
eagerly sought. Thin white face pam
handle twos sold at IS here today,
buy today was two cars of rather well
bred stock calves, 500 pounds, at sT.75,
by Missouri grazer. Springer cows
and heifers are not quite as strong
this week, due to lateness of the sea-
son for this kind; choice ones would
bring around 81.
Hog markets continue to be hard
fought battles, with no lasting ad-
vantage on either side. Packers have
evidently issued instructions to buy
ers to get them cheaper, ana declines,

1OSeIUy anu politics make SIrdDge
bed-fellows. but perhaps you have
heard that before.
Also, politics sometimes gets of
considerable magic, single handed.
In politics a man (some mem will
do more to defeat an alledged enemy
than he will to help lifelong friend.
Charity covers multitude of sins,
but not of the political variety.
s'Sweet charity" sounds very fine
but she is not in it with the honey
of get-even.
And there are fellows, otherwise
respectable, who "start something
for the sole purpose of making
trouble between friends.
Also, there is the man of suspicious
nature. Unreliable himself, he is
ready to accuse others of doing the
things he would do, if he had the
chance.
And this is the class that appeals
to ignorance, prejudice, and the over
credulous, alas, too often with evil
results.
OF course if you never say any
thing it will be impossible for anyone
to misconstrue your words, but that
won't keep some people quiet
And there is the loose-tongued in
dividuai who describes future events
in the past tense. o no, it wouldn't
be kind to call him liar, although
in other respects the use of the
s'short and ugly" word would be
quite proper.
And now after all this wandering,
let US get back home again. The Of
fee of sheriff seems to be the most
popular in Trego. And have you
noticed that each new announcement
adds to the impression that it is to
be contest between the 'sfats'' and
the cleans?
