RANGE STEERS COME HIGH

For a string of 4,200 steers just delivered to the grazing district of Greenwood and Butler counties in Kansas, M. L. Steel of Groom, Tex, received about $325,000. Mir. Steel's sales included 1,600 head of four-year old steers at 800 a head and 2,600 steers of the same age at $70 to $50. "These prices," remarked MT. Steel, "are an indication of how much money has been spent to stock up the Kansas and Oklahoma grazing districts this spring. The prices also reflect the great rise in values which cattle rais- CTS of Texas have enjoyed. However, the advance does not mean cores bonding increase in our profits.
 "Years ago we had free range and light expenses. To build and main- tain fences is expensive. The ad- vances in land values which we have witnessed have added to the burdens of those raising cattle. In the days of cheap range and low expenses, we used grade bulls, and paid out very little money for breeding stock. The steers I sold at $90 each, which is probably record price for that kind, and that number, are eligible to reg istry. They are the very highest type of beef animals to be found in any part of the country.
 "Ranchmen, however, have no com plaints to offer. We have expended large sums for breeding stock, and made large increases in equipment in other directions at heavy expenses, in connection with our ranching indus try, and have been compensated for it. Where ranchmen have adopted strict business rules they have pros pered, and are in better position to- day to make this industry pay than we were 15 years ago."
 Mir. Steel specializes in steer ranch ing, raising no cattle himself. His method is to buy calves and young steers, and mature them. The cattle

he handles are the product of the best herds in Texas.
EFFECT OF CORN SHORTAGE

Chicago, May 22.--Both cattle and hog quality is steadily deteriorating. Packers have bought approximately 115,O0O cattle around the western market circuit this week, but owing to the large proportion of 750@1 ,050- lb stuff will get 25 per cent less beef than the same run would have yielded year ago. Hogs are coming badly mixed, with large percentage of pigs and light stuff that make only a miniature contribution to the lard kettle, and do not increase stocks of cut meats.
 Corn shortage has but one logical sequence and it is in evidence now.
The Coconino sun., 1917-05-25

This is a good opportunity to push the corn belt northward. The early maturing varieties have a great sphere of opportunity in the higher attitudes.

Steady advance in cattle prices is enabling them to pay good returns

 sheep and lambs.

Has Serious After-effects Equal to
Infantile Paralysis and Fatality as
Great as Scarlet Fever
State Board Of Health Bulletin.
There used to be a deeply cherish
ed notion among old fashioned moth
ers that every child had to have meas
les, humps and whooping cough
sometime, anyway, and when any Of
these diseases prevailed in the COM
munity, and they were not so rushed
with other affairs, they thought it
a good time for the children to have
en- and be done with 'em. So they
practically invited measles into their
homes and took a week rtwo, some
times a month or longer, to nurse the
innocent patients through the NAL
cdy.
It's just this same old fashioned
rotion about measles, says the State
Board of Health, that is responsible
for its wide spread throughout the
State at this time. Hardly a town,
school or neighborhood is escaping
an epidemic of measles. 1t is caus-
ing scores Of schools to close fol
weeks at time which is wasting
time and money and is a drawback
to the progress of the school, to say
nothing of the death it is causing.
And yet this snot the most seri-
GUS feature of an epidemic of meas
les in a community. According to
The Survey Of August, 1916, "Meas-
les ranks with smallpox in commun-
liability, with scarlet fever in NOR
tality, and has serious after-effects
Of pneumonia, tuberculosis and de-
fective ears and eyes," It is the Sc
rious after-effects that makes meas
les such a serious disease. It leaves
weaklings in it wake and a commun-
ity that resignedly gives itself over
to an epidemic lives to regret the
dav.. Somebody is left to suffer life
long defects.
And yet measles is a preventable
disease, at least the spread of it is
preventable. Only the recognition of
early symptoms and strict quaran-
tine is effective in preventing it's
spread. For every mother or guard
ian to do her duty by her child as
well as by her neighbor's child would
be the ideal plan of checking cpl
denies in their beginning.

HOW TO CURE SEED CORN.

Plenty Of Air and Sufficient Heat Arc
Necessities.
To cure seed corn two things are
necessary-plenty of air circulating
around the ears and enough heat to
dry out the corn so that the moisture
will not be frozen and the germ part
Of the seed injured. says bulletin
prepared by r. s. Moore and ]. ]. Gar
land Of the Wisconsin College Of Agr+
culture.
Now, just a word about how we are
going to cure this seed corn. First,
we must be sure to give each ear ais
circulation, So that the moisture will
be carried away and the development
Of molds will be prevented. In order
to keep the ears apart several handy
devices have been used to cure corn.
A seed corn tree is handy arrange
ment for curing seed corn, which any
boy can make. An upright pole Of
| 2 by 4 is fastened to base. Headless
nails are driven in the pole and the
seed corn stuck on the nails. OF
course the nails are far enough apart
so that the ears do not touch. A corn
tree six feet high will hold enough
ears to plant about fifteen acres.
| Whatever kind Of rack is used for
curing the corn, you must place 1t
where there is free air circulation. 1t
won't do to try to cure seed corn this
year by hanging it on the south side

CUCUMBER MOSAIC DISEASE.

Attacks Field and Greenhouse Plants.
Peculiarly Termed white Pickle"
A new disease of cucumbers, known
as the mosaic disease, has appeared
during the past few years in CONNER
cial greenhouses and in fields where
cucumbers are grown for picking pur.
poses. The disease has been known
longest and is now most widespread
and severe In the middle west, where
the industry of growing cucumbers
for picking is centered.
The mosaic disease is commonly
known in Michigan, Indiana and Wis
consin as white pickle" In Mime
sofa it Is commonly called "nubbing."
The disease is characterized in the
field by definite plant, fruit and leaf
symptoms. When plants are attacked
while very young they are markedly
dwarfed by the action Of the disease
growth ia slow, the runners are very
much shortened, the leaves are CORE
spondingly reduced in size. the plants
blossom sparingly and the amount of
fruit is very much reduced. When
older plants become diseased the priv
cipal visible effects are on the subsk.
quent growth of vines and fruit, tie
vine tips and leaves being dwarftd
and notified and the fruit uniformed.
The mosaic disease has recently been
studied by the Michigan experiment

reau of plant industry. United States

of the barn or crib or in any exposed
place. There is too much moisture In
the corn.
The only way to remove this mois-
ture is to cure the corn in some warm,
well ventilated place. The furnace
room or the kitchen will be the best
place in which to have the curing
rack.
An attic which can be ventilated and
heated will make good place in which
to cure the seed. If a chimney passes
through the attic or heated room is
just below 1t is often warm enough to
dry the seed corn. Too much corn
placed in the attic will mean that a
small stove will have to be used to
keep the room warm enough to dry
the corn. Be sure of one thing-a
warm. we'll ventilated place is needed
for the curing process.
The seed corn is cured when it be-
comes firm and you can't twist an ear
Then you can take 1t off the rack II
you want to and place it in a dry place
where the mice and rats will not get In
and ruin your seed.
