u. S. TO EXTEND CATTLE
LOANS SAYS FINANCE CORP

President Coolidge was advised by
Fred Starelz, director, that the war fl.
nance corporation despite apprehen.
sion by some, western cattlemen, hae
no intention of forcing liquidation OF
cattle loans.
Mr.. Starek informed the president
during conference that the policy
of the corporation was to deal liber-
ally with the cAttlemen to whom
credit has been extended and who
must have longer term loans thar
farmers who have yearly turnover
Cattlemen, although yet facing diff
culties, in the opinion of Mr.. Starek
must have a restoration Of confidence
along with all those concerned with
the cattle industry.
He also discussed the general agri-
cultural situation and as one of those
who were most closely connected with
the Harding campaign in 1920, talked
with the president regarding the gen
eral political situation and the pri-
maries to be held early next spring

WILD DOGS PREY ON STOCK
IN SOUTHERN PART OF STATE

Considerable complaint has been re-
ceived in the local office of the Unit
ed States bureau of biological survey
from stockmen of the southern part
of the state concerning the depreda-
tions of a pack of wild dogs that are
destroying the young animals in the
herds of that section.
M. E. Musgrave, state inspector OF
predatory animals, who has just re-
turned from an inspection trip
through the section, says that the
animals are simply mongrel dogs that
have answered the "call of the wild, =
and to some extent have crossed with
the wolves of northern Mexico and
Arizona.
He employed wheel Craig as state
hunter in the part of the country in
tested by the dogs, and among the
first duties assigned to Mr.. Craig was
the destruction of this pack. Other
hunters will be employed, if necessary,
to cope with the situation.
Outside of the situation created by
the existence of this pack and few
wolves who have migrated from Mex
leo into the southern part of Arizona,
the wolf situation in the state is Well
under control, according to Mr.. Mus
grave, who says there are not doz-
en- wolves in the state who have not
come across the border recently. I'm
til adequate provision is made south
of the Mexican border for the control
of predatory animals, Mr.. Musgrave
declares, it will be impossible to elm
mate all the wolves in that section of
the state.
In addition to the activities among
the wolves, a considerable drive is
now being conducted against coyotes
on various Indian reservations of the
state. This move is being taken to
protect the sheep ranges of the terri
tory surrounding the reservations
from the depredations of the coyotes.
Other sections of the state are now
being worked by hunters who are con-
filming their attentions to mountain
lions.

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
MARKET REPORT
: s**+s+**+%%*s**s
Septemher z. 1923.

Receipts of Al 900 cattle and 1000
calves were 10000 cattle and 1000
calves less than the worlds record
run established a week ago. This de-
crease was expected, and while there
was some decrease in orders for fat
cattle, the general market held. close
to steady. Stocker and feeder demand
was active. Fat hogs sold readily at
strong prices, top $3.50. Pigs and
stock hogs were easier Sheep were
strong to 10 cents higher and lambs
steady.
Receipts today were 41,000 cattle,
$4,000 hogs and 10000 sheep, COM
pared with 1,508 cattle, 10000 hogs
and 10000 sheep a week ago, and
27,250 cattle, 9,700 hogs and $3.50
sheep a year ago.
Beef Cattle
While demand from killing sources
for fat cattle did not attain large
volume, owing to the fact that most
slaughtering establishments in the
United States were closed down owing
to the Labor day holiday, the general
market held steady with last weeks
close and slightly better than the low
point Tuesday Of last week. While
quality of the offerings in the aver
age was much the same as for
some time past, fewer fed steers, the
class that sell at $11.00 and up were
available. The bulk of the supply
came from Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas
and New Mexico, and included lib
eral per cent of stockers and feeders.
Cows and heifers, bulls and calves
were steady
Stockers and Feeders
Demand for stock and feeding cat
tie was large and indications are that
the corn belt will continue buying for
some time to come, or at least as long
as liberal supplies are available. Rains
late last week have added a buying
incentive. Fleshy feeders are dim
inishing in supply and straight stock
ers and feeders are on the increase.
Sheep and Lambs
Sheep and lambs stold readily at
strong prices. Several large punches
of Utah and Colorado lambs went to
killers at $500. Some Texas feeding
lambs brought $12.25 and western
ewes $40. Demand was active and
an early clearance was reported.

Bureau. DeUises
Safety Code for
Pilot of Balloon

Safety regulations for balloon
lists are the latest product of bu-
reau of standards Investigations.
A section in the general American
aeronautical code--for which 1t Is
possible congressional enactment
may be obtained--is devoted to
laying down dont's for pilots.
The first rule adopted forbids
balloon riders from throwing over
board anything but sifted sand and
water. which is carried as ballast.
and these matters must be poured
out and not dumped out in pack
ages. Another forbids smoking
anywhere about the craft. Balloon
passengers are forbidden to sit
on the sides of carrying baskets
or to stand on ballast, and are re-
quired to bend their knees when
landing. They are likewise for
hidden to get out of the basket
until the pilot tells them to do so.
on the ground that they might
tighten the balloon sufficiently to
make 1t rise.
