KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
MARKET REPORT
February 18th, 1923.

Chicago today with $4,000 cattle
1000 hogs and $4,000 sheep, was the
factor that made for lower livestock
prices at all markets. The prices fol
cattle were steady to Is cents lower
Most Of the good quality cattle were
steady and the medium to common
classes showed the decline. Hogs
were 10 to Is cent slower, top $50
and lambs went to 25 cents lower. In
Chicago hogs declined 25 cents, the
result of the heavy run there.
Today's Receipts
Receipts today were $4,000 cattle,
$4,000 hogs and 5000 sheep, compared
with 10000 cattle, $4,000 hogs and
5000 sheep a week ago, and 13.450
cattle, 1890 hogs and 1856 sheep a
year ago.
Beef Steers
While trade in cattle opened slow
ly, the dominating feature in the
dullness being $4,000 cattle and lower
prices there, the market here was
nearly steady in the average. Some
of the palmer classes of fat steers,
and the beater grades of heavy steers
were 10 to Is cents lower. The 9TH

were in moderate supply. Veal calves
were steady, top $11.
Stockers and Feeders
While holdings in traders hands
cleaned up closely last week, there
was good buying Of stockers and feed
ers on that account. There were also
a good many outside orders for fleshy
feeders and good stockers. Prices rul-
ed higher than last weeks close and
about the same as a week ago.
Hogs Decline
Chicago had 1900 hogs out of $780,
500 received at the five western mar
kets today, and with sharp declines
there buyers here were able to force
moderate concessions. Had the sup
ply been more evenly distributed the
price level would not have been dis
tu1bed. Here the decline was 10 to
Is cents, top $50, and bulk of sales
1886 to S8.05. Packing sows sold at
S6.75 to ST, and pigs $7.25 to $7.85.

with prices weak to 25 cents lower.
Most of the decline was in fat lambs.

Aside from the fact that genera

development of the month of January
was the advance in the price of cop

Cattle prices generally held firm,

wholesale and retail trade were

uSanKlng transactions compared favor
aDly with those of the previous month.
Inc steady improvement Of the past
year has resulted in general encour-
agement. There are indications of
considerable building activity during
the next twelve months.
Seasoned dullness in agricultural en-
ceavors characterized the month of
January, but there was no lack of in
dications of fully normal activity in
the coming growing season. Spring
plowlng is under way, together with
stalk cutting and other preparations.
The lettuce acreage this year is
more than double last seasons, there
oelng 1850 acres of lettuce in the Salt
River valley, 800 acres in the Toltac-
Eloy district, and 200 acres in Yuma.
The crop is of fine quality, and ship
ments are heavy. Arizona asparagus
Is on the market. Spinach and green
peas are being shipped out of the
state in carload lots for the first time.
Sugar beet growing is to be given
thorough trial in Cochise county,
more than 20 farmers in the Sulphur
Springs valley having signed up to
plant beets. A sugar beet expert is
giving instruction in soil preparation
and. planting, and much interest is
being shown in the test. The poultry
industry also is making great strides
IN this same district. Thirty thous-
and chicks We're shipped in last year,
and 10000 are expected to be shipped
IN this year.
Livestock
Range conditions show a general
as a result of recent
storms over the state, with the ex-
ception of Greenlee and Graham coun-

snow. Some shrinkage of stock has
occurred, but cattle generally are in
good shape.

ROTARY WAS BORN
FEBRUARY q, 1905

SerVlce--to the community, to the
state and to the home" is the answer
given by the members of the Rotary
club of this city to the hundreds of
inquiries made during the last two
or three days as to the objects of the
international organization, of which
it is part, that is taking the unique
way of celebrating its eighteenth an
nlversary by scattering broadcast
messages from the heads of the CO.
ordinate branches Of the government
on the responsibility of each citizen
for his community.
Since the state of the campaign in
the schools, churches and other places,
much curiosity has been aroused in
the lay mind as to just what Rotary
means and why it exists. 1t is an in
ternational organization with more
than 1900 member clubs in the larger
cities and towns in every section of
the world, with a total membership
of more than 10000. The first club
was organized in Chicago, February
%, 1905. A national association was
formed when sixteen clubs held the
first convention in Chicago in 1910.

nipeg, Canada, Dublin, Ireland and
London, England, the organization
became international in 1912.
The sole objects of Rotary are:
To encourage and foster:
(a) The ideal of service as the ba-
sis of all worthy enterprise.
(b) High ethical standards in bus
mess and professions.
Co The application of the ideal of
service by every Rotarian to his per-
sonal, business and community life.
(d) The development of acquain-
tance as an opportunity for service.
(c) The recognition of the worthi-
ness of all useful occupations and the
dignifying of each Rotarian of his
occupation to serve society.
(f) The advancement of under
standing, good will, and international
peace through a world fellowship of
business and professional men united
in the Rotary ideal Of service.

FRUIT BLIGHT is
NOW CONTROLLED

California blight may be known as
Just "blight," "shot hOle,'' "bud blight
fruit spot" and a number of other
names, but each name simply refers
to single symptom Of the disease.
Any of the stone fruits, as peaches
apricots or cherries, may be attacked
by this disease. 1t attacks the buds,
often killing them; produces a shot
hole on the leaves, causing them to be
deformed and frequently causes the
tree to lose all it's leaves. At times the
disease may cause spOtting and de-
forming of the fruit.
To control all diseases the remedy
must be applied at the proper time,
and for California blight, George l..
Zundel, extension plant disease spec
ialist, tells us that the fall of the yeas
is the time to get busy with this dis
ease First, clean up all diseased
branches, leaves and fruits and burn
