 res for the first six months of 1916
 ere far in excess of sales during the htire 12 months of 1915.
 "As an example of the extraordinary emand for our solid truck tire," said IT..

Naturally, am only too glad to forego having l |e tire as long as 1t has been actu- fly sold.
 |"As a matter of fact" MT. Welch lent on, q am most optimistic about lies prospects for the remainder of @ year, and expect to see 1917 going |r ahead of 1916 In volume"

Asbestos Found in Arizona

Up to the present time Canada was
the only locality in North America
where long fibered asbestos was OBJ
tanned. While Wyoming produces as
bestos, this material is Of the serpen-
tine type and is short fibered. Lately
large deposits of the long fibered type
of asbestos were discovered in Ari-
IONA, the largest deposits being in the
Sierra Ancha and at Ash creek. The
asbestos of Arizona is chrysotile as
bestos and is found in lime and dia-
base. Its nature makes it especially
useful for the manufacture of fabrics.
The high grade material is at least so
per cent of the local material mined
and is the only material that is being
shipped due to the high freight.

WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
STOCK MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, Nov. 81,
1916.-Last weeks trade in killing
cattle was fairly satisfactory, but
stockers and feeders lost Is to 40
cents. Receipts today dropped to
5000 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 here from Nebraska last
Wednesday. Killing grades sold
strong to fifteen 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 $3.50 to
$11.35, cows $3.50 to $3.50, Gamers
$3.50 to $500, several train load lots
of Gamers cows offered. Packers seem
to need large amounts of beef, and
they have been short of Gamers mate
rial here for several weeks. A single
packer brought in SIS car loads of can
ner cows from Chicago in the last
three days to be killed here. Shippers
with cattle nearby seeking inside in
formation today were told to have
them here tomorrow or Wednesday,
prospects favoring good market for
killing cattle those days.
Suckers 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 determined
that the disease is not foot and mouth,
probably Wednesday.
Hogs
Receipts were 10000 head, market
strong at the opening, top 1895, late
sales weak, bulk $9.40 to 1885. 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 devel-
op, 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 8 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 cents above week ago,
the best lots at $1,000 and $1205. Fat
ewes sell up to s7.75, fair to good ones
$675 to $3.50, wethers S775 to. $3.50,
yearlings worth up to 1915. Alfalfa

WINTER MAIL
 '' IS PROJECTED
(Continued from Page One)

A canvass of a number of the bus Iiness men of the town shows that the project is universally endorsed by them, and this sentiment is undoubt- edly the expression of the entire com munity.
 w. x. Cuddy, of the Valdez Mer- cantile Co.-"The service would be q great thing for the town both finan- cially and through the benefits which would arise both to the community and the people along the line of the proposed route from regular mail service. I am heartily in favor of it and will do all in my power to for ward it."
 T. E. Dougherty expressed the be- lief that such service would mean much to the town and no endeavor which might in any way affect the favorable action of the department should be neglected.
 Russell Hermann, of the Owl Drug Co.-"Boost for it, it is big thing" He pledged himself to do all in his power to aid the project Meyer Blum, of S. Blum & Co.,, ex- pressed the opinion that it was we'll worth working for and would prove of inestimable benefit to the entire community and give a large number of people now cut off from all mail regular service during the winter months.
 E. G. Ames, of the Keystone Pro- duce Co.-"It would be big thing for the people along the trail as we'll as the town" He expressed his ap- proval of the proposed service.
 John Biggs, of the Valdez Drug Co. said: "I am for it. Count on me to do all I can to help the matter along. It is big thing for the town and the people along the projected route."
 pr. Merritt expressed his approval and urged that the people get out and work for this service, which he be- lieved would prove of great value to the town.
 Wm. Thomas of Frye-Bruhn-'I am heartily in favor it it. Count on me-"
 H. P. King ST. and H. P King jr of Kings Grocery were enthusiastic over the project, and pledged them selves to do all in their power to boost it.
 This probably expresses the senti- ment of the whole community and it lis probable that immediate steps will be taken to prevent the advantages ,Oi such a service to the proper au- trorities.
 Capt: Nolan has taken the matter q, ~ith Major Davison and Colonel
 tchardson of the Alaska Road Con- Il. sion. and their support to the pro- js-'., is assured It remains for the people Of the town to get together and work for the establishment of this winter mail service.
