prepared by the U. s. Department Of
Agriculture.)
How can the farmer and stock rails
er turn the live stock reports of the
bureau Of markets, United States De
partment of Agriculture, into dollars
is frequently asked.
The answer is for the farmer to get
so much information out of the re-
ports that he can conduct his breed
ing, feeding and marketing operations
little more intelligently in the fu-
ture, and therefore more profitably
than in the past.
Market reports are history, and the
chief value of history is the basis
which it provides on which to fore
cast the future. In other words, what
has happened in the past will prob
ably occur again under the same or
similar circumstances.
Small benefit is generally derived
from reading a single market report,
or one covering short period Of time.
Markets move in cycles, and the man
who would keep informed must follow
them diligently in season and out.
This is a matter of particular impor-
lance to the stOckman, because his
business is, to an unusual degree, a
longtime speculation. He must pre-
pare now and lay his plans today in
light of what he thinks the market
will be anywhere from six months to
two years hence. But how will the
departments reports assist him in
doing this2
First of all, he should take into ac-
count potential supplies Of the par
ticular class of live stock in which he
is interested. Assume that cattle is
his line. The monthly report, Stock
at Stockyards, gives the number of
cattle and calves marketed from
month to month through 68 central
markets. If such movements are I'M
usually heavy for any considerable
time, it may indicate a cattle short
age during the next year or two, and
a shortage Of any commodity usually
means higher prices.
This same report also shows the
number Of cattle and calves that went
back to the country as stOckers and
feeders. If such movements were ex-
ceptlonally light, it would help to con-
firm the belief that a comparative
shortage in cattle was impending. On
the lether hand, heavy stocker and
feeder shipments would go a long way
toward neutralizing the Importance OF

had come upon the mountain world,
his own strange feeling of numbness,
of endless soaring through infinite
spaces. But he was a mountain man,
and that meant he was schooled, be-
yond all things, to keep his self-con-
troll. He made himself remember Yes
he had been cutting wood on the
hillside, and the shadows had been
long. He had been wondering wheth-
er or not they should go down to the
valleys.
He remembered now: the last blow
and the rolling log. He tried to turn
his head to look up to the hill.
He found himself wholly unable to
do it. Something wracked him in his
neck when he tried to move. But he
did glance down. And yes, he could
turn in this direction. And he saw
the great tree trunk lying twenty feet
below him, wedged in between the
young pines.
He was surrounded by broken frag-
ments of limbs, and it was evident
that the tree had not struck him a
full blow. The limbs had protected
him to some extent. No man is of
such mold as to be crushed under the
solid weight of the trunk and live to
remember it. He wondered if this
were the frontier of death-the gray
ness that fingered over him. He
seemed to be soaring.
He brought himself back to earth
and tried again to remember. OF
course, the twilight had fallen. It had
been late afternoon when he had cut
the tree His hand stole along his
body; and then, for the first time, a
hideous sickness came upon him. His
hand was warm and wet when he
brought it up. The other hand he
couldn't stretch at all.
The forest was silent around him,
except a bird calling somewhere near
the hOuse-a full voice, rich and clear,
and it seemed to him that It had a
quality Of distress. Then he recognized

the heavy receipts, for the stockmen
would know that most of these cattle
going back to the country must be re-
turned to market during the next few
weeks or months and enter consump-
ton channels.
Having established in this fashion
a broad basis for his operations, let
us assume the stockman Is feeding q
lot Of steers for the market, He must
now give market reports more careful
and persistent attention than before.
It is quite important that he know
what kind of cattle are In best de-
mand on the principal markets. If
there Is a steady inquiry for heavy
finished cattle, and that kind are sell
ing at a premium over lighter weights,
it will probably pay him to "feed his
cattle out" unless the cost of feed
is exceptionally high.
If, however, cOnsumptive demand
seems to be drifting steadily toward
lighter retail cuts of meat, or, because
of general business depression or some
OllSE CAUSE Is CCulcIluS chiefly Ou
the lower and cheaper grades, he may
find 1t more profitable to market his
cattle at an earlier age and before
they have attained great weight.
Abundant information along this
line. will be found both in the live
stock market reports and the reports
dealing with meat-trade conditions in
the large consuming centers.
In this connection the stockman will
also be interested In keeping advised
as to whether the slaughter of meat
is Increasing or decreasing and wheth-
er the movement applies equally to ali
classes of meat, or whether slaughter
of beef is decreasing while that Of
some other class is increasing. This
information is obtainable from the
statistical report covering the live
stock and meat situation, which Is
based on the federal meat,inspection
reports Of the bureau of animal in
dustry and is also published monthly
by the bureau Of markets.

SAC From Traffic.

An East side Italian woman, mother
Of three small children, has invented
a way to prevent her offspring from
playing in the middle Of the street,
thus keeping them away from tratac
dangers. Every day she takes them
down to the front door Of the tene-
ment house in which they live, slips
moose around each waist and neck,
and then ties the end Of the rope, with
about five feet leeway, to an iron rail-
ing in front of the house, and the chill
dren play among themselves. She
slips a small paddock in between the
knots Of the rope and the bars Of the
iron railing, so that no one but herself
can unite it.-Detroit Free Press.

chopped at great log and wondered
what would suit him better-the COM

But at that instant, the question of
whether or not he would winter on the

instant was all that was needed. For
the period Of one breath he forgot to
be watchful-and a certain dread
Spirit that abides much in the forest
saw its chance. Perhaps he had lived
too long in the mountains and grown
careless Of them: an attitude that is
usually punished with death. He had
just felled tree, and the trunk was
still attached to the stump by strip
Of bark to which little of the wood
adhered. He struck q furious blow at
it with his ak.
He hadn't considered that. the tree
lay on steep slope AS the blade
fell, the great trunk simply seemed to
leap. Lennox leaped too, in a frenzied
effort to save his life; but already the
leafy bows, like the tendrils of some
great amphibian, had whipped around
his legs. He fell, struggling; and
then a curious darkness, streaked
with flame, dropped down upon him.
An hour later he found himself lying
on the still hillside, knowing only a
great wOnderment At first his only
impulse was to go back to sleep. He
didn't understand the grayness that
