LIVESTOCK TRADING
In JANUARY PROVES
UNUSUALLY ACTIVE
Sonora County Reports
Heavy Trade in Cattle,
Sheep and Goats.

Sonora, Feb. 3.-Approximately 25,-
900 head of cattle, sheep and goats have
changed hands during January. As the
month closes it marks one of the most
active of livestock trading seen in the
Sonora country in several months.
Northern feeders have been heavy
buyers from the section during the
month, purchasing several thousand NUT
tons and topping the West Texas mar
ket by paying so head for muttons.
Although these sheep were shipped from
this country in amazing numbers, it is
in no way taking all of the sheep out
of the country, but rather helping the
range instead. 1t is thought that 10O,-
900 lambs will be raised in Sutton
county this year. The raising Of these
lambs was recently helped by a nice
fall of rain, which was general over the
county and amounted to about one inch.
Recent sales, reported by L. L. Ben
son, veteran Sonora commission dealer,
reveals the sale of 400 head of coming
8 and 4-year-old mutton sheep, The
price per head was kept private, al
though the proceeds of the entire sale
was approximately $4,000, They were
all sold to Illinois feeders and will
be delivered during the early part OF
February. OF the number 1900 were
purchased from Allison & Wyatt, a
livestock firm composed of d. J. Wyatt
and FL. P. (Buster) Allison. These sheep
were out of the wool, while the remain
ing HOO purchased from Allison &
uutcberSon which is made I'm of George
S. Allison and b. W. HUTCHINSON, were

New York, Feb. S.-The week has
been one that may be termed construct
i've for the investment security market.
This may at first appear as a strange
conclusion when the many new, low
prices for foreign government. issues
are remembered, to say nothing OF
further reaction in domestic issues OF
the first and second grade types. The
major influences, however, have been
on the side that ultimately will make
for higher quotations.
Take, for instance, the decision OF
the British cabinet to accept the terms
of the American government for fund
ing the five billion external debt. Tho
collateral as we'll as the direct values
of this action are great. They enter
more deeply into the whole question oil
international politics and economics
than is supposed.
1t is possible to translate this &C
ceptance into terms that ultimately vii
comprehend the entire circumstances Of
international debts, not only thost
which Europe owes the United States
but which nations of Europe owe eact

ONE EDITORS SCHEDULE.

We recently came across a scneo-
ule of prices charged by a country
weekly editor, who offers to give a
per cent of his earnings each year
to founding an asylum for those
feeble-minded people who believe that
an editor has a soft snap. Here is
the schedule-read it closely:
For telling the public a man IS a
successful citizen when everybody
knows he is as lazy as bench-warm-
er-$2.75.
For referring to some gallivantlng
fellow as one who is 1mourned by the

be missed by the boozers-$1O.lS.

DRESIDENT HARDING has begun
4 his journey of more than two
months, through the Middle West and
West, to Alaska, and through the Pam
ANA canal to Porto Rico. Already he
has delivered, in st. Louis, his main
address concerning American member
ship in the world court. He set forth
at length the reasons why he favors
such membership and has now left the
matter TO the decision of the American
people, who, before deciding, will have
ple,3ty Of opportunity to hear or read
the views of the opposition. Mr.. Hard
ing could not be induced to abandon or
be silent about his advocacy of the
world court membership by those who
feared it would cause a party split.
but it is not likely that he will dwell
on the subject in his future addresses

a grain corporation be formed, sup
piled with money from the United
States treasury, to buy all the Ameri-
can farmers wheat as soon as the
price dropped to $3.50 a bushel.
Senator Capper of Kansas was one
of the most vOciferous of the con-
ferees, as might be expected, and at
the opening session he seized the Op-
pOrtunity to denOunce the Chicago
board of trade, asserting that it has
become the worlds greatest gambling
place and fixes the price for the bene-
fit Of the speculatOr and against the
producer and consumer. he added A:
''In May, 1922, half dozen grain gam
blers cleaned up something like ST.
100000 in "A hours, which was more
than all the farmers of Kansas made
out of their entire crop in 1922. This
will not be possible with the Capper-
| Tincher law in operation"
Vice President John r. Mauff of the
! Chicago board Of trade hotly resented
Capper's charges, denying them abso
lutely. Afterward he said the boards
directory would soon decide whether
the Kansas senator should not be sueC
for damages on account of defamation
Of character of the 1888 members o.
the board.
