BOSTON WOOL MARKET

The wool market continues irregu-
lar and unsatisfactory from the sell
ers' standpoint. The bulk of the cur
rent movement is in woods to go
abroad. These are selling freely, and
shipments are increasing. Domestic
manufacturers are not yet ready to
buy freely, though knitting yarn in
terests, whose buying has been the
feature in recent weeks,sare still pick
ing up cheap lots of quarter-blood
woo1s wherever obtainable at low
prices. Some holders, especially of
consigned lots, are refusing to accept
current bids, expecting 20 get more
money when the market rallies. The
failure of mill buyers to come into the
market following the recent activity
has been a disappointment to the
trade. The position of the market
for men n's-wear worsteds is still the
key to the situation. Until that mar
ket rallies, wool is expected to be dull
and draggy, with possibly occasional
spurts. Some of the more pessimistic
are now saying that it is too late for
the lightweight season to recover,
and that nothing particularly good
can be expected until the next heavy
weight season opens after the turn Of
the year. Australian markets are fair,
~ firm, though topmaking woods are
easier in the Sydney market, with
France the principal buyer. The trade
looks forward to the next series of
the London wool sales, scheduled to
open October %, with considerable
curiosity.

CATTLE GROWERS DIVIDE
STATE IN FIVE DISTRICTS

PHOENIX. = Henry G. Boice,
president Of the Arizona Cattle Grow
ers' association, announces that he
has divided the state into five dis
tricts and appointed new directors
representing each district, who will
have jurisdiction in the associations
matters of local interest, including
financing, in their territory.
Each of the directors will have au-
thority; Mr.. Boice said, to appoint an
executive committee from the cattle
men of his district will be free to
devise the best methods Of conducting
the associations work in the interest
of the cattlemen in his district.
II. NJ. Rice, secretary of the asso-
citation, will leave here in a few days
on a tour of the state during which
he will offer his services to the war;
ious districts in the work of assisting
them in the handling of association
problems.
The five districts were divided as
follows, in accordance with the gen
eral characteristics Of their locality:
District one. Maricopa, Yuma and Pi-
nal counties; district two, Yavapai and
AOiiAFG E0Aht1CS, t1ol14CC tA1EC1 SoSO7
nino, Navajo and Apache counties;
district four, Gila, Graham and Green
lee counties; district five, Coconino,
Pima and Santa Cruz counties.
The new directors are j. M. Cart
wright of Phoenix, George W. Hennes-
sey of Holbrook, C. E. Stewart of
Simmons, A. C. Webb of Globe and
John w. Thornton of Tucson. The di-
reetors will serve until the next an
nual meeting of the association, which
will be held during the second week
of February in Douglas, when direc-
tors will be elected by the members
Of the district that they are to repre-
sent in any manner that they choose.
The first meeting of the new board
will be held in Phoenix during the
week of the state fair.
The action of dividing the state into
districts was taken in accordance with
the associations declaration at the
last convention in Flagstaff.

BACK TO THE LAND MOVEMENT
Why the Checking of the March to
the Cities is Probably Only
Temporary.

The tide of population which has
been rushing from the country to the
city has been temporarily checked in
fact it is receding in the other direc
ton at the present time. Farmers
Rnd farm laborers, lured to town hf
Inflated wartime wages, are returning
to their rural haunts, now that theiI
source of high living has gone. Will
them are going unemployed city labor
prs, largely foreigners, and some city
business men who have heard the
siren call of the countryside.
This movement. which started with
the rehabilitation of our troops and
was accelerated by the shutting down
OF war babies" has received added
impetus fsom the general business
slump.
There is undoubtedly a fsrmward
movement. But is it great enough to
be significant?
When / discussed this question with
the editor of Leslie's / felt tlat II
there was back-to-the-farm move
ment, 1t was not pronounced enough
to be important. After considerable
investigation in various sections Of the
country and after receiving facts and
opinions from agricultural colleges,
farm bureaus and state departments
ina dozen states, my original idea has
been upheld. The cityward trend
may be balanced for the time being
by the movement back to the land,
but such a condition is for the mo-
ment only.
Farming is far from being "the life
of Riley" in the year 1921. Many
farms are being sold for taxes; mort
gage foreclosures are forcing unfor
tunate farmers to become wage earn
ers; returned farm laborers will find
farm wages rather meager after their
well-flled city pay envelopes, and
some, undoubtedly will move back to
town in search of an elusive job,
plumbing, and friendly movie palaces.

MARKET REPORT
+4*+*+++*++*++1
October Is, 1923.

Cattle receipts were moderate again
today, and while prices were not quot
ably changed, there was an easier tone
in the trade. Indications are that re-
ceipts from now on will be moderate.
Hogs were in active demand at steady
to 10 cents lower prices than last
weeks close. This left the general
market 25 to 80 cents above the low
point last week. Pigs were barely
steady. Lambs sold at 10 to Is cents
lower prices and sheep were steady.
Lambs sold at 10 to Is cents lower
prices and sheep were steady.
Today's Receipts
Receipts today were $4,000 cattle,
$4,000 hogs, and $4,000 sheep, COM
pared with $4,000 cattle, $4,000 hogs
and $4,000 sheep a week ago, 30,550
cattle, 11,425 hogs and 15,300 sheep a
year ago.
Beef Cattle
Trade in cattle was delayed some
by heavy rain, but later there was
a fairly large volume of business over
the scales at steady prices. Statesmen
tried to get an advance, but slow
trade reported in the east prevented
dli dufdnCC. HHS4aSC qNUA1Iy VI IhS
offerings was only fair, and no choice
full fed steers arrived. The best here
sold at $1,000 to $1,000, and short fed
classes brought $3.50 to S9.75. Grass
fat steers sold at $4.00 to $3.50, or
practically the same as last week.
Cows and heifers brought the same
prices as last week and liberal sup
plies were available. Calves and
bulls were steady.
Stockers and Feeders
Trade in stock and feeding cattle
was quiet at weak prices. Wet wealth
er is keeping some buyers off the
market. A liberal supply of common
to fair stockers has accumulated in
second hands.
Sheep and Lambs
Sheep were steady and lambs 10 to
Is cents lower. Some fall shorn Tex
as wethers at $7.35 were about the
only sheep offered The bulk Of the
lambs offered were western grades
that brought $12.75 to $1,000. A few
natives sold at $1,000 to $3.50.

CLARKDALE FOOTBALL.
WARRIORS TOO MUCH
FOR NORMAL NOVICES

Continued from Page Onel
third quarter, the fighting-mad locals
recovered the bail on Clarkdale's 30
yard line and worked the pill for 40
yards only to lose the ball on Clark
dale's 25-yard line. The hillside crew
bumped into a stiff wall, forcing Mar
tinez to kick to safety. The wind
landed the ball on Clarkdale's 10-yard
line. Stevenson's backs, Camp, Fill
lerup, Heckathorne and Stone, ham
mered the visitors wall with line
bucks and We're within 30-yards of
touchdown whens the quarter ended.
Score, third quarter, Normal, 0;
Clarkdale, IL.
In the last quarter, with the ball
on Normal's 30-yard line, third down,
and only three and half yards to go,
Heckathorne threw beautiful pass
which hit the ground, giving the ball
to Clarkdale. 1t was plainly obvious
at this time that the Lumberjacks
were firing. Playing two games in
two days is too tough a proposition
for any football machine. Clarkdale
took advantage of this unfortunate
condition and ripped normaPs line
with little or no resistance. Black
and Martinez each scored a touch
down. Black drop-kicked the ball be-
tween the uprights for the only sue
cessful try of the afternoon. In the
last few minutes of play the Lumber
jacks spirit rallied and they fought
like madmen to the very finish. The
score ended 25 to 0 in favor of the
visitors.
Several of normal's men had not
played football until last week and
two went into the game badly Grip
pied. These boys showed their cour-
age by sticking clear through. Nor
NAL had only two substitutes, but
used neither. Clarkdale had IL sub
stitutes, but though on five different
occasions time out was, called to re-
susticate some one or other of the
Clarkdale players, none of the SUBJ
stitutes were called on to play.

From practice of earlier days
when hymn books were scarce. In
order that all the congregation might
be able to join in the singing, the pas

alternately to the end of the hymn.

tall living form on the game trails.
