MORE CATTLE RECEIVED
At YARDS IN YEAR;
Less HOGS AND SHEEP

record OF cattle, hogs, and sheep
at the stock yards of the country
shows that there has been an increase
in the number Of cattle that have come
to market In the first eight months of
1917, as compared with receipts for a
similar period Of 1916. Receipts of hogs
and sheep show decrease for the
same period. ..-
shipments for the month of August,
in both years, reflect like tendency.
Figures gathered from the forty six
principal stock yard cities show that
l, iO5,Sl2 cattle were received In August.
1917, as against 1,527,069 in the same
month year ago. The August ship
ments of hogs, on the other hand, were
only 1,1l1,655 head for this year.
while there were 2,5a3,537 last year.
Equivalent figures for sheep were
1.i5S,1I6 and 1,Ss4,Sl5. For the first
seven months Of each of the two years
the figures were as follows, the 1917
receipts being given first in each case:
Cattle, 1o,679,9S7 and S,l91,61S; hogs,
22,5S2,s27 and 24,40S,9Sl; sheep, $780,
$50 and S,SS5,535.
Officials of the bureau OF markets
say that number of causes have a
bearing on the increase in the receipts
of cattle and decrease for hogs and
sheep. The increase in cattle shipments
is in part due to an effort to market
the animals because of the high prices
that have been obtained for them
coupled with the greatly increased
prices OF feeds, and the several
droughts that have prevailed in the
southwestern section. Some dairy AMI
mails have undoubtedly come to market
from these causes, coupled with de-
sire on the part of dairymen TO keep
only high producing stock, and get
rid o. cattle that will not be profitable
as milk producers.
Last year an unusually large number
Of hogs and sheep came to market IN
response to high prices. and the re-
ceipts at the stock yards so far this
year are believed to represent rather
a return to the normal movement than
a distinct falling off in the supply.
In the north central part Of the coun-
try the receipts OF hogs at most OF 'he
packing centers have shown no ia'''nS
off, and in some cases an lhcreas'
Ohio points. and some in Indiana, M
nois. and Iowa, show slight increases III
hog movements, but many OF the Iarse'
centers, such as Chicago, Kansas ny
and St. Paul show decreases. ana IiIe
aggregate falling off is considerap'e
Receipts OF sheep have shown decrease
almost everywhere. but few places ~
tho far west. notably Denver, ana ID
tho southwest especially in IeXaS'
bave shown decided increases. Ihese

That Skim MiIk-Save Il.

Save every drop OF skim milk. 1t Is
a valuable food Use 1t in your kitchen
and on your table.
1t Is valuable as a beverage, in cook
cry, as cottage cheese,--too valuable
to waste, whether It comes thru your
own separator or the separator at the
creamery,-too valuable to be thrown
away. or fed to farm animals, II it can
be used for human food.
At creameries where whole milk is
handled. skim milk is often thrown
down the drains. Creameries ought to
make their skim milk into cottage
cheese.
Farmers ought to make cottage
cheese at home Skim milk so used
will supplement our meat supply, for
cottage cheese is one of the best sub
stitutes for meat. Use it In your
cooking.
Make and eat cottage cheese and en-
courage others to use It,
Make puddings and soups and bread
with skim milk.

Heavy Toll Taken by Cholera.

More than 600 hogs have died in
Linn, Jones and Johnson counties in
the last few weeks OF cholera, accord
ing to a report submitted to the fed
oral government. One farmer lost a
hundred head, another ninety, another
seventy, and others from nifty down to
three. The spread of the disease ap-
parently has been rapid recently, due
to the neglect, it is said, of the farm
ers to inoculate their herds. The fed

value of vaccination and TO urge them
