The Turkish newspapers and for

that 1t is impossible to obtain the
authoritative Turkish view OF the
situation. The Turks with whom tho

declaration that Constantinople was
about to repeat the history OF Cairo:
that the British would remain In
Turkey as they had in Egypt. Mean
while-F'rench and British newspapers
are featuring Paris and London dis
patches that the United States will
assume responsibility in restoring
order in the near east.
The general opinion among Amer
leans here is that the occupation was
prompted more by political than hu-
name motives.

PRESENT CONDITIONS OF
THE LIVESTOCK MARKET

Cattle loans around Kansas City are
reported to be $20,000000 short of
normal. owing to tight money. Feeders
are unwilling to take the chance of
loss and pay the price asked for money.
This condition is general, as Montana
and Wyoming are getting only few
cattle and could use 100000 head or
More as grass is good there this year.
Bankers of the West consider cattle
paper as desirable and safe as Il usual
thing, hut last years experience has
made them cautious. There will be Il
heavy run of light graSS-fcd steers this
summer and fall and prices are apt to
be low. Later, when the reaction comes,
bCofSteak will be scarce and high III
price. Large runs of light cattle last
week forced the price down again from
Il $1G.50 top to about 70 cents lower.
These cattle were only worth $12.O0
per cWt. Il few weeks ago. Demand Is
good for fat light cattle and prices are
expected to advance.
Hogs hit $3.50 top and at present
prices for feed are netting a substantial
loss The top for lambs the past week
was $500. which is Il better price than
was paid two weeks ago. Stocks OF lara
in storage have increased while meats
have shown Il big decrease from May
|, 1919. to May 1. 1920

HIGH LAND PRICES CUT INCOME

That the high prices paid for Iowa
land during the land boom of the past
year are not justified on the basis of
income from the land is the conclusion
from an investigation of land values
in 60 Iowa counties conducted by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture in cooperating with Iowa State
College.
The survey shows that at the high
level of prices it is impossible for
any but the exceptional farmer to
make a return of more than 3 per cent
on his capitalization. During 1919
land values increased on an average
Of 500 or 81 per cent an acre, a bigger
increase than during the 80 years from
1850 to 1900.

five acres of fine timber is being left

. This spring he has stumped and ploW

and has it into crops.
He paid only ST. per acre and has de

HEMP A GOOD CROP
MILL WANTED HERE

Farmers around here would like to
see a hemp mill put in at Ladysmith.
Hemp is good-paying crop, though
hard Oh land in taking fertility from
the soil 1t is Il good crop for the land
as it is a great purifier, growing rank
enough to smoother quack grass and
weeds.
With hemp in regular rotation
where barn yard manure is applied
regularly, there is no question but
that much benefit would result. We
believe good acreage of hemp could
be contracted for here and a mill should
be a paying proposition.
