PERFECT DAY ON THANKS
 GIVING IN PRESCOTT
(From Fridays Daiiy.)

Many Prescott families took ad- vantage of the perfect weather and the excellent condition of the roads yesterday and spent Thanksgiving Day in the back country, taking their turkey, and all that goes with the festive bird," to some beautiful spot and enjoyed their dinner while people in the East shivered around stoves. Never was there a more perfect day. The sun shone down softly and hardly a breath of wind stirred.
 While housewives in practically every other city in the country were boycotting turkeys and eggs, local custodians of the larder selected the ingredients for the Thanksgiving din- ner at a cost not much above the average, and at profit to the pro ducer.
 For those away from home and no, fortunate enough to be a guest at some hospitable Prescott family's table, the local restaurants provided appetizing and delectable dinners, and it is safe to assert that every inhabit- ant of this city felt that he had much to be thankful for when the sun sank yesterday at the close of most per feet day.

HUGE MOVEMENT BEGINS IN THE
 BRADSHAWS
BIG MODERN MILLIN G WORKS ASSURED FOR WIN KING; WILD FLOWER IS ACTIVE.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

According to advices received from Crown King, one of the most inn portant mining and milling undcrtak- ings ever inaugurated for the Brad shaws has been consummated by the Randolph -Gemmill Development Go.
 This syndicate is dismantling the old Crown King mill, which will be superseded by a large modern reduc- ton plant, in which Notation will form the main feature of recovery of values from the complex ores of that belt This question being solved has prac- tically revolutionized milling in that field, and from the high recoveries made mining is advancing at rapid pace in many mines being active, an excellent future being now assured for the large area covered in different minerals readily submitting to modern methods of reduction.
 Another big move by the company is centered to the Wildfower group, taken over recently from the interests represented by F. NJ. Murphy, in which the unwatering of that prop erty has been accomplished. The ore zone is reported as showing a won derful content both as to values car ried and tonnage available for reduc. ton. A tramway is being built from the mine to the new mill at Crown King, distant about two miles, and from that source alone it is estimated that fully l50 tons of ore will be easily handled daily. The company, it is reliably reported, is closing op- tions on other mines of that belt, and in few months will be equipped with plant by which any tonnage de- sired will be treated at the central point. The consummation of mining and milling plans of the syndicate has created more interest and occasions more enthusiasm for the future of the Bradshaw country than ever known.

THE BOY SCOUTS
 HAVE FINE GYMNASIUM
(From Thursdays Daiiy.)

i The Boy Scout organization has be- come fixture in the lives of the younger progeny of Prescott. A well equipped gymnasium, with games for both the strong and weak, has been placed in the Boy Scout headquarters on East Gurley street. Every after noon after school hours the place is filled with laughing, healthy boys whose noisy shouts are heard b., those who pass by.
 The first floor is devoted to the athletic games such as boxing, aero batic and other stimulating contests Upstairs the less strenuous games are played by the small boys. However, the life of the Boy Scout is not all play. A certain part of the day is set aside for study of military signals, first-aid-to-the-injured surgery and other things that are helpful.
 If the organization continues to grow as it has in the past few weeks it will be necessary to look for larger quarters, Instructor Howard Wcster said yesterday. Practically every boy under the age of l6 in Prescott is a member of the organization.

(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

With unprecedented prosperity al hand. Prescott citizens have much tc be thankful for on this, the day sci aside so many years ago by our fore fathers to offer up thanks to Him who spared their lives through the long and cold Winters. Prescott citizens have received even greater blessings than the sturdy little band of Pilgrims which offered up its thanks on the last Thursday in November, many years ago. They have been blessed with an abundance of wealth, and an all-year-round climate unexcelled by any place on earth.
 Mines in every part of the county are yielding fortunes and one of the largest and most successful land irri- gating projects in the country is daily attracting the attention of Western farmers. It is predicted that within a few years this State, with Yavapai county as its center, will be one of the biggest agricultural districts of the inland Western States.
 So let the people of Prescott offer up thanks today as they seat them selves before their tables set with food raised from the fertile soil of Arizona and purchased with wealth dug from the depths of its mountains. Make this Thanksgiving Day, truly thankful one

CATTLE MARKET
Correspondence.

Special Correspondence
 KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS, Nov. H.-Last weeks trade in killing cattle was fairly satisfactory, but stockers and feeders lost Is to 70 cents. Receipts today dropped to 9,000 head. probably less than half what the run would have been except for the embargo on shipments out, put on pending outcome of investiga- ton of suspected case of foot and mouth disease in shipment of cattle received from Nebraska last Wednes- day. Killing grades sold strong to Is higher today. Hogs sold about steady sheep and lambs steady.
 Killing Cattle.
 Buyers took everything solid, start ing at the Exchange building and working in all directions into the cat tie yards. Steers sold from S6.50 to Sl1.35, cows S5.50 to S50, canners S460 to S5.20, several trainload lots of canner COWS offered Packers seem to need large amounts of beef, and they have been short of canner material here for several weeks. A single packer brought in $ carloads of canner COWS from Chicago in the last three days to be killed here. Ship pers with cattle nearby seeking inside information today were told to have them here tomorrow or Wednesday, prospects favoring good market for killing cattle those days.
 Stockers and Feeders.
 Cattle that arrived here from West ern Nebraska last Wednesday showed symptoms of a disease resembling foot and mouth in some ways, and shipments out of Kansas City were stopped Saturday, till it is determin- ed that the disease is not foot and mouth, probably Wednesday.
 Hogs.
 Receipts were 10000 head market strong at the opening, top S995, late sales weak, bulk S94O to SoS5. The market shows intermittent strength, and all indications point to higher prices. Receipts are beginning to fall off, and with the immense existing de- mand for meats and pork product, stronger competition is sure to de- velop, which means higher prices. Be- sides hog prices are inadequate, either compared with beef or lamb, or as based on prices listed in board of trade reports. Quality is improving, and weights were nine pounds heavier last week than two weeks ago.
 Sheep and Lambs.
 Receipts were $500 head. market about steady with the close of last week, lambs 55 cents above a week ago, the best lots at SIP and Sl205. Fat ewes sell up to T75, fair to good ones S6-75 to T.5O, wethers S.75 to SS.5O, yearlings worth up to S975. Alfalfa grazed lambs from Eastern Colorado and fed lambs from local territory make up bulk of the supply. Pea fed Colorados will start week after next.
