WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS, Jan. 13.-Cattle receipts today were 27,O00 head, market steady to 15 lower, top $17.20. Hog supply was 21 ,OO0, market to 10 higher, top $17.55. Sheep receipts were 700O, market barely steady, top lambs $16.50.
 Beef Cattle Steady.
 Prices are very little changed from week ago on the better grades of beef cattle, though canner cows are 25 to 50 cents lower than a week ago. Beef steers show slightly better av- craze quality in the last week and bulk of them sell at $13.50 to $16.00, with few lots up to $17.75. Colorado i pulp fed steers sold up to ST recently, pulp fed bulls 5000, choice native heavy bulls $11.00, canner cows now sell at $6.50 to $7.00, butcher cows $7.50 to $11.00, choice heavy cows up to $13.50, veal calves $11 to S14. The supply today is extra heavy for Jan uary, which is partly due to a surplus accumulated at loading points during recent storms and which is now ap- bearing at the market.
 StOckers and Feeders Fair.
 The limited supply last week met a a good demand and prices were fair during the week. Mild weather which magnifies the approach of spring brought out a good demand today and prices were steady. Feeders sell at $11 to s15.40, stock steers $7.5O to $14.00.
 | Hogs Firm.
 A concerted effort is being made to put hog prices down, but progress in that direction is slow, sales today I were slightly better than the close o1 last week, though 10 to 15 cents un. dera week ago. Best medium weights brought $17.55, best heavy hogs $17.5O, best lights $17.30, bulk of sales S17 to S17.35. It is proba ble that receipts will run as heavy as the committee will permit during Jan uary and in that event, the market may work downwards to some extent through the month. Stock pigs arc receiving more attention from buyer! and sales are $100 higher than weel ago and stock pigs are selling at $1; to $15.26. Further advances on these are expected.
 Sheep and Lambs.
 After making good advance . week ago the fat lamb market ha: been somewhat unsatisfactory though no special decline has set in. Re ceipts here are not much more thar Il one-half as heavy as a year ago which permits sales to retain certain advantages. Fat lambs today brought $16.50. Ewes brought $9.7E today, but choice fat ewes are worth up to $10.50.

WRONG TO BUY OVER
 3O.DAY FOOD SUPPLY

A warning has been issued by the state headquarters ot the food admIn- istration Io all Arizona dealers against the practice of selling house holders more than 30 days supply of food commodities.
 In recent study of the situation in Phoenix it was ascertained by an inspector that large proportion of the stores there are violating the reg ulations imposed by federal law against hoarding, by selling sugar in 100 pound sacks, and other food com modities in bulk whenever opportunity affords.
 The food administration calls at tention to the fact that this practice is absolutely in violation of food reg ulations still in effect and which will doubtless be retained until peace is signed and the food administration is automatically disbanded. Until such time dealers are under obligation not to sell foodstuffs in quantity in ex- cess of thirty day allowance, and they are in danger of being penalized if they persist in this practice.
 The enforcement division of the food administration has been retained, which means that field inspectors will continue to check margins of profit, and that any efforts at profiteering will be proptly put down, and that Vi olation of the anti-hoarding rule will be closely watched.
 Householders are asked to cooper ate by not ordering food which will increase amounts on hand in the household to more than thirty days supply. In some instances where per sons live a great distance from the point of supply this may be necessary. But in such cases permission should be obtained from either the county food administrator, or the federal food administrator, whose headquarters are at Phoenix.

COL. CONVERSELY IS
 GRADUALLY FAILING

YUMA-Word has been received in Yuma from the bedside of Col. H. H. Donkersley that the physicians at Hoboken have little hopes for the re- covery of the Arizona colonel. He is suffering from dropsy and heart trouble and is critically ill. Colonel Donkersley says that he has but one desire, and that is to get back to Yuma before the end. Unless there is a decided change in his condition this will not be possible, as he could not possibly be moved now.
 Mrs. Donkersley is staying in Ho- boken to be as near as possible to her husband. The many friends of the family in Yuma are deeply distressed at the sad news from Hoboken. Col onel Donkersley is well known throuehout the state, and has an en- yiables war record, both in the border trouble and with the American Ex- pedftfonary Forces in France. E.

Flu Medicine Dumped.

With no intent to cure mother earth of the flu or to get her drunk, but simply to comply with an idiotic law, on Monday night last Undersheriff Robinson and Judge Sweeney poured into the sewer 300 gallons of liquor which had been taken from bootleg gers. This liquor had been accumu- lating for some time, but did not in- clude the 22 cases recently seized at Ash Fork.-Prescott Courier.

The boys filled pockets, hats and

Among these divisions, one of the most

thought, however, that the matter OF

Dortance that it was well to divide that
division so that some one individual
might give his entire time to the work.
The subject of Hog Island was treat
ed of in detail by Matthew G. Brush.

soing to get ships at the rate of at least

and we will launch a ship every Satur-
