Kansas City Stock Yards,

Kansas City Stock Yards,
 December 9th, 1920. Trade in cattle which has been in different for some time past, took on new activity today at strong to 50 cents higher prices than last weeks close. Receipts were light. Killers were short on supplies and there was a good demand for stockers and feed CTS. Hog prices were firm with trade active. The top was $10.10 and bulk of sales $9.75 to $10.05. Sheep and lambs were 25 to 50 cents lower. Lib eral receipts and lower prices else where caused the decline here.
 Today's Receipts.
 Receipts today were II, ,000 cattle, 5000 hogs and 5000 sheep, compared with 20,500 cattle, 1000 hogs, and $500 sheep a week ago, and 17,250 cattle, 23 HOO hogs and 10,150 sheep a year ago.
 Beef Cattle.
 Light receipts forced killers into ac- tive competition for fat cattle today and prices were higher. Fat steers were up p cents and cows and heifers up 25 to 50 cents. Trade was active and everything fat enough to draw killers bids sold readily. No choice steers arrived. Fair to good short fed steers sold at 5000 to $10.00, and warmed up classes from S8.50 to $9.00 Grass fed steers sold at $650 to $8.5C and were in limited supply. The prin' cipal decrease was in range cattle Cows and heifers which have been sell ing unusually low rallied more thar steers. Few fed grades were offered and grass fat cows brought $500 tt S6.0O. and heifers S6.00 to $7.50. Yea calves were 50 to 75 cents higher, tor $13.50.
 StOckers and Feeders.
 With general indications that thu big range movemtnt is ended, anC thin cattle will be in diminishing sup ply from now on, prices for stocker' | and feeders were 25 to 50 cents up Offerings of all quality clear freely ! Considerable demand for feeding cat | tie has not been satisfied and indica | tions are that fairly good outlet vii continue throughout this month.
 Hogs.
 Hog prices today were strong to 1( cents HlSNtI, UlOstly StiOiiS NoihpaiS' with last weeks close. The top price was $10.10 and bulk of sales $9.75 t' $1O.0O. Pigs were p cents higher, tol | 5000. The hog market is showing considerable stability and indications are that because of improved demand for pork that packers will not be abl' to force the market to the 9 cent leve as they had anticipated.
 Sheep and Lambs. i Prices in the sheep division were 2 to 50 cents lower. Lambs sold up t, Sl1.75, yearlings, S9.60, wethers $6.7' and ewes S5.25. Lower prices else where caused the decline here. Ligh receipts are expected for the next fev weeks.
 Horses and Mules.
 The few arrivals in the horse di vision sold at steady prices. No gen eral improvement was reported in tn market Dealers expect better de mand after the first of the year.

as trying to elect the Democratic
nominee for the Presidency. The
Republican organization is no less
inactive in bringing to the voters
of the State the irreconeilabie op-
position of Senator Harding to the
league of nations.
Into this subtle political situation
Gov. James NJ. Cox plunged today.
In Portland he found the Carroll
letter linking the New Jersey liquor
interests with the Cox campaign
displayed prominently in Republican
papers. He found pronounced senti-
ment for the league of nations and
antipathy over the position of Sem
