Enormous Cattle Shipment
BY J. A. Rickart
Written for the United Press)

written for the United Press)
Kansas City, Aug. 12.-Whi!e it is
not unusual for livestock from Cali
fornia and other ia western state
to find outlet ut Kansas City, the
numbers of shipments of cattle and
sheep that have been sent rom Pa
Cific coast states to the Kansas City
market this year is causing consid-
cradle comment. Since the first o.
May 10 trainloads of beef cattle have
been sent from Arizona To the Kan
sas City market, four trains from
California, trains from Montana, >
from Idaho and one each from Wash
ington, Oregon and Nevada. Besides,
there has been morc than 10000 sheep
and lambs sent from Arizona, heavy
shipments Of sheep and lambs from
California and Wyoming, and larg
shipments Of cattle and sheep ffon
every intermediate state, especially
from Texas. More than leo carloads
of Texas cattle have been offered in
a single day at Kansas City this SUM
mcr on several occasions.
The last week in July one train Of
81 cars Of cattle was received from
Nevada and another trainload from
Imperial, California.
The great capacity Of the packing
plants at Kansas City makes it the
second largest slaughtering point in
the world.
The packers nccdcd large amounts
cf beef this summer to fill war con-
tracts, and took the big western cat
tie readily. Practically all the cat
tie sent from the faraway points
were big beef steers, weighing
around 1900 pounds each, or more,
and they sold at IS to $3.50 per hun
drcd pounds. Irrigation in the west
is producing large crops Of barley,
alfalfa and other feeds, which are best
disposed of by feeding to cattle and
sheep, hence the increased offer Of
livestock from those sections.
Railroads arc alive to the import
ancc Of giving good service ON these
long shipments, in order that the
shrinkage of weight may be as light
as possible. Early in July a ship
mcnt of 25 carloads of cattle from
Imperial, Cal, made the run of 1895
miles to Kansas City with only tive
stops for feed the actual running
time being 81 hours. On July 10 4
train of Is cars of steers from Phoe-
nix, Ariz., arrived in Kansas City
having made the run of more thar
400 miles with only two stops fol
feed.
