BIG CATTLE DEAL IN
 YAVAPAI COUNTY

Prescott. Jan. 15.-During the present week one of the biggest range deals ever made in this section was closed in the law offices of Judge J. J. Hawkins in Prescott, whereby George w. Barney and sons sold to John Goodwin and Daniel Shea of Jerome, all their cattle and range holdings on the Mogollons for sum said to be over $125, = 900 on a cash basis.
 The sellers controlled a large section of desirable grazing lands lying south of Williams, which extended into this county north of Jerome. Goodwin and Shea for many years have been identi- fled with the livestock industry, in that region, and with their new assets, spring into promi- nent rating as factors in this line of business by possessing inter- ests that give them a high stand ing of rating. This deal is a strong indication of the future of the range industry, and the price paid would indicate that the cattle business of the future was an lnducement for outlaying the above big sum. The num- Der of range cattle affected was not learned. Arizona Republi- can.

Kansas City Cattle
 and Sheep Prices

Kansas City Stock Yards. Jan. IS, 1915. The feature Tn the cattle market here last week was the fact that 10000 cattle, sixty per cent of the supply, went into the hands of stocker and feeder buyers. The bulk of these cattle went out at prices 15 to 25 cents below Monday. The comparatively small number of killing cattle remaining sold 10 to 15 lower the first part of the week, but after Wednesday there were signs of returning strength. Receipts today at all points are light, and the market IS strong to 15 higher here on killing cattle, run here IA. 900 head. Stockers and feeders again make up a large propor- tion of the run. and sales are steady on the best, others un- evenly lower. It required pow erful influence to keep cattle back today in Chicago territory, where many feeders are almost forced tu sell. Much of the beef produced in the last few weeks has come from low priced cattle, a class that finds the best outlet. Choice steers sold here last week at $9, but high class steers are selling at $8. 25 to $8.75, good short fed steers $7.50 to $8, and plaln steers SIPS to S7.60. Butcher cattle are strong to 10 higher today. following weak ness since the first of the year, Cows sell at $5. 50 to $6.5O, a | few prime COWS up to SIPS, bulls S5. 75 to $6.50, veal calves S8. 50 to $1O.5O quarantine cattle in small supply, mostly medium | steers at S6. 25 to $6.90 Stockers sell at $6.2 to $7.4O feeders S7. 25 to $7.75. Sheep buyers had bearish orders late last week, and their best bids on lambs Friday were around $8, which | was 65 cents lower for the week. Ewes and wethers were quoted | 25 to 40 cents lower, but very few aheep or lambs were sold at | his reduction, salesmen either forwarding the stuff or holding over. Receipts today were held town to 2, 400 head, and nothing very good was included. Lambs rom Ft Collins and from Monte Vista brought $8.15 today, but strictly choice lambs would reach s. 35. Ewes sold at $5. 35. only medium quality. Sales today were 15 to 25 higher than Thurs lay or Friday, Declines this 1ear are not taken seriously, be- :ause the market can be nursed ,ack to strength with ease, as numbers bearing on the market, at Kansas City, are he smallest in several years at his time,
