FARM HOMES ABANDONED
BECAUSE OF INCONVENIENCE
Time Has Come to Move Conveniences
to the Farm, Instead-Running
Water a Prime Necessity.

The main reason why so many farm
homes are abandoned is because of the
lack of modern labor-saving Devices"
says Miriam NJ. Haynes of the Colo
rado Agricultural College.
Women are the determining factor,
they rebel against the drudgery and
hardships of the average life on the
farm. The burdens of the farm life
fall too heavily upon the homemaker
who too often is trying to keep house
IN an unsanitary, inconvenient home
with little, or no mechanical helps. If
we are to build permanent homes in
the country we must make our homes
more comfortable and convenient, or
in other words more 'livable." We
must bring the best of the home labor
saving equipment from town, install
1t IN our country homes When we are
planning on some new farm equipment
which is very necessary to have, stop
and consider mother at the same time.
What does she have to make her work
easier?
Water in the farm home will mean
much to the wellbeing of the entire
family, it will relieve nine-tenths of

the drudgery Of the routine of the
farm home work.
When the average farm woman is
asked what she most wants. her reply
is nearly always, Water in the home
with a well equipped bathroom and
plenty of hot and cold water the year
around"
LET our aim be that we will install
some kind of water system in the farm
home before another winter sets in"

KANSAS CITY STOCK MARKET

scramble for hogs today sent prices up
sharply to new high record positian.
The strength in the market remained
up to the close. The top price was
S22.65 and bulk of sales S22 to S22.5O.
Good to choice fed cattle and best
heavy grassers were 25 cents higher,
other steers steady and butcher cattle
lower. Sheep were quoted strong, with
trade active.
Today's Receipts.
There was material difference in
cattle receipts. A sharp reduction in
hogs, and no material change in sheep.
Receipts today were $4,000 cattle, 5000
hogs, and 5000 sheep, compared with
1000 cattle, 1900 hogs and 5000
sheep a week ago, and 23,6OO cattle,
$500 hogs and 4,SOO sheep year ago.
Beef Cattle
Good hard fat steers are advancing
in price. Today in a run of $4,000 cat
tie, several loads sold at S16.50 to
SIPS, and heavy grassers, wintered
and some caked, sold at $3.50 to S14.-
80, or higher than they would have
brought at any time this season.
Twelve carloads of steers from Tex
as brought $14.25. Straight grass fat
steers were about steady, and butcher
cattle were dull, and lower. The bulk
of the offerings were straight from the
pastures and sold at S1O.5O to S13,25.
Cows brought $3.50 to S1O.50, a few
heavy thick fat sold up to Sl2.25.
Heifers are quoted at $S to S15.25.
Veal calves were about steady at last
weeks decline.
StOckers and Feeders
Increased receipts of stockers and
feeders gave the trade large opportun-
tiles to expand at steady prices. De-
mand for the best was fairly active
and for plain grades quiet. Feeders
are quoted at $3.50 to $3.50. Stock
ers IS to $I2.25, and stock cows and
hcifers $3.50 to $3.50. Stock calves
were in fairly liberal supply at S. to
$3.50.
Hogs
A wild scramble for the mcager sup
ply of hogs sent prices into a new high
record position. The top price was
S22.65 and bulk of the offerings sold
at S22 to $22.55. These are the high
est prives even known. The general
action of the hog market indicates that
demand for pork and pork products is
much larger than the supply of hogs.
This is the period of the year when
small supplies are expected and no
increase in anticipated in the
before the latter part of
October.
Sheep and Lambs.
Market for sheep and lambs today
was active and firm prices. The bulk
Of the offerings were native grades.
Lambs are quoted at S15 to S17.25.
Weathers $3.50 to S11.5O, ewes $3.50
to $3.50. Some breeding ewes sold up
to S17.00. They were in the yearling
class. Feeding lambs are quoted at
$40 to $3.50.
Horses and Mules.
Receipts remain light. There is an
excellent demand for regged work
horses 1900 pounds up, also good draft
horses 1900 pounds up. There is some
demand for Southerners, as well as
for mules both cotton feeders and su-
gar type. A local firm has an order
for 500 cotton feeders to be filled after
August l.
