How Fish Are Counted.

The Wood river in Alaska. has been
closed To fishing for many years and is
resOrted 10 for breeding purposes by
red salmon escaping the nets in Nu-
Shagak bay. The counting of the sal
mon was first undertaken in 1908 and
has been continued annually since that
time except in 1914.
The counting is made possible by
throwing II rack across the stream and
compelling the fish 10 pass through n

had been caused by his jealousy, which
up TO now had been proved to be

BIG SHIPMENT OF MEXICAN
 CATTLE INTO THE U. s

One of the biggest shipments of cat tie out of Sonora for more than a year is scheduled for the moth of Oc. tober. Several of the prominent cat tie men of the state, led by ex-Min- ister of War General Alvero Obre- gon, are arranging to import 15,000 head of cattle into the United States.
 Harry Turner, stock agent of the Southern Pacific company, and c. R. Graham, representing the bureau of animal industry in this district, are in Nogales and are looking about tc secure land to build dipping pen.
 With the removal of the S. P. cor rals from Nogales, the dipping vat was dismantled, and it is necessary to build new one in order to cross the cattle from the Mexican side. It is more than probable that vat will be built at point some few miles out into the country, probably at Calaba- sas.

WOOL PRICES STRONG.

Boston wool houses report healthy demand, with prices very strong. Pur- chases continue for account of the War Department, but outside of that manufacturers have taken 5,000,000 pounds. Sales continue to be largely of wools suitable for use on govern ment contracts, mainly South Ameri- can crossbFeds and territory wools. Staple wools of the fine and half blood order are getting scarce, and ex- treme prices are being paid for lots with good length of staple.
 Scarcity of labor continues to be the principal difficulty the mills have to meet in keeping their plants running. This is especially true of those hav- ing government business. The 25,000 bales of Australian wool bought for account of the Navy Department is expected at any time.

TICK ERADICATION
 IS NOW BOOMING

With active work for tick eradica- tion proceeding in 332,251 square miles of southern territory, the Unit ed States Department of Agriculture and State officials are decidedly hope ful that their cooperative goal-"a South entirely free from the cattle fever tick in 1921"-will be attained. Twenty thousand eight hundred and eighty-two dipping vats were in con- mission in August, and during that month 522,541 different herds, com. prising 4,319,554 cattle, were being dipped regularly every two weeks. A force of 1901 Federal, State, and County inspectors were actively en- ployed in the work of getting rid of the cattle pest. When the territory now being worked is entirely freed of ticks there will remain only com- paritively small quarantined territory in the entire South.
 Mississippi led with 1S7,330 herds and 1,373,925 cattle dipped regularly in 6,583 vats. This work, it is believ- ed, shortly will clean out the ticks from 45,176 square miles of territory and free the entire state from quaran- tine this year. Louisiana was second in number of cattle dipped and Ala bama third, each dipping over 66O,- 900 animals. Arkansas was close fourth with 648,000 animals dipped.
 Texas, where dipping recently has become active, is handling 295,592 cat tie, but leads all the states in area handled, with over 65,000 square miles being worked. Florida, where cattle are not so numerous, is second in area covered, with 53,111 square miles. One of the most hopeful signs in that the state legislatures of Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and As kansas have made dipping of cattle to eradicate ticks compulsory.

WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, Oct 1, 1917.
 Cattle receipts today were 30,000 head, market steady, best steers here s16.25, stockers and feeders strong in some cases. Hogs today 6,O0O, market stronger than Friday, but weak as compared with Saturday, top $19.50. Sheep and lambs today 14,0OO, market strong, lambs $17.50. BEEF CATTLE.
 Strictly prime steers are around $17, but the best here today sold at $16.25, and they were better than any thing offered last, week. Kansas had a good run here today, also the Texas Panhandle, there was a fair run from Oklahoma, and from Colorado, one train from Oregon, between 30 and i0 cars from Northwest Nebraska. There is ample outlet for killing steers, and prices are slightly better than the low time last Tuesday, but 25 to 25 cents under ten days ago. Cows sell at S6.5O to S10, canners $5.50 to S6 veals up to $13.50.
 STOCKERS AND FEEDERS.
 A good crowd of buyers was here last week, and the yards were well cleared, prices not much changed dur ing the week, some sales at a reduc- tion, but no bargains offered. The supply contains big percentage of stock cattle, and there are a largo number of country buyers here today most of them just looking, but they will take hold good tomorrow. Stocl; sters sell at $6.75 to s9, feeders s9 to $11.50, fleshy feeders up to $15.25 in the last week.
 HOGS.
 Packers inaugurated their annual fall bear campaign today, but it was not effective in any great degree, or. der buyers paying s19.50 for choice medium weights, packers stopping al $19.45, bulk of sales at s18.70 to S19, 40. A rumor came from buying cir cles that an attempt will be made tt put prices down materially in Octo Der, and eventually hogs from the new crop will have to sell at 15 cents { pound, some quarters taking 12 cent at some time during the winter, bu this estimate of 12 cents is regarded as extreme, in view of supply condi tions. September receipts were ex ceptionally light at all markets, loca supply being 10,100 head, smalles September run since 1888. SHEEP AND LAMBS. Prices have reacted 25 to 50 cent from the low time last week, killing lambs now worth up to $17.50, feed ing lambs today at $17.5O, paid fo' Arizona eve lambs, choice ligh weight westerns worth more, possibl, SIS. Plain native lambs sell up t. $17.25. Apparently the market ]. headed upwards. Demand for breed ing ewes continues greater than tn. supply, though a fair number art available from today, young breeder: worth $14 to $16.50, broken moutl feeders $10 to SIP.

OUR COMMITTEES
 WASHINGTON TRIP

President Hagenbarth, upon his re- turn from Washington where he was called by telegram from Secretary Houston and Mir. Hoover, brings most encouraging news. He reports that the government is keenly alive to the importance of the livestock industry especially on the wool end, at the present time.
 There were present in Washington with Mir. Hagenbarth, J. M. Wilson of Wyoming, Mr. Slater from Colorado, Messrs. Verkamp and Sawyer from Arizona, and Roscoe Wood of Wyo ming, and Hugh Sproat of Idaho. Conferences were held with Secretary Houston; with M. L. Requa, assistant food administrator; E. c. Lasater. livestock expert for Mir. Hoover; E. c. Brand. chief of the bureau of mar kets; Dr. Romell, acting chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry, and A. F. Potter, acting forester.
 Your President Hagenbarth was as- sured by both Secretary Houston and tn eFood Administrator that the gov ernment was not behind, nor has it issued any order demanding a boy colt or embargo on the use of lamb meat. On his suggestion, Secretary Houston and Food Administrator is- sued a public statement on August 22nd, from which we quote as follows:
 "Some sections of our country are stocked to capacity with mother ewes, from which lambs are marketed at from seventy to eighty pounds weight. This is the most economic method of producing mutton, just as baby beef is the most economic method of pro- ducing beef, and the quality of both of these meats is the best.
 "What we need is more cows and more ewes producing the 700-pound calf and the seventy pound lamb. We wish to restore the confidence of the farmer in his industry by convincing him that he will get fair share of a fair price paid by the consumer and extending him credit on a reasonable basis so he may be able to equip his farm for handling sheep, hogs, and cattle successfully. Only by adopting the foregoing methods and principles can production be stimulated and the consumer protected"
 This statement sets the matter oi government embargo on the use ot lamb meat entirely at rest.
 | A meeting was called' in Wash. ington on September the 9th and 9th President Hagenbarth, Ex-Governor Gooding of Idaho, E. c. Selway, oi Montana, F. M. Rothrock of Washing. ton, R. M. Stanfield and Jay Robbir of Oregon, E. A. Sawyer of Arizona J. M. Wilson of Wyoming and other \ representative sheepmen attended.
 Never in the history of the country has the government come to recog. nize the importance of the livestock industry as national asset as it does at present. We feel that the future of our industry, as well as the de. mands and needs of our government in relation thereto, are in safe hands National Wool Grower.
