BOSTON WOOL MARKET

The Boston wool market remains
quiet, but all wool values are firmly
held. Manufacturers are only buying
scattered lots just covering needs
from time to time. Contracting
in the west has been continued, though
on somewhat smaller scale tilan pre-
viously noted. 1t is estimated that
fully 18,000,000 pounds Of wool have
been tied up in these early contracts,
mostly in Idaho, Wyoming and Neva-
da, and something has also been done
in Utah, California and Oregon. Prices
recently paid at the west have con-
tinued about on parity with the
Boston market. Foreign markets re-
main firm. Receipts of foreign wool
at the port of Boston for 1924 to date
have been less than one-half those re-
ported for the same period in 1928.
The goods situation remains unsat-
isfactory. Renewed shipments of for
eign wool in bond are being made
from Boston to England, and the
movement promises to reach consider
able proportions unless manufacturers
show more interest in the market. Ow-
ing to the great strength abroad, it is
possible Tor owners to recall consign-
ed woods from Boston and sell them
in Bradford at considerable advantage
to the sellers.

Builders Of Arizona VIII Soon Recount
Old Trails to Fourth AnnudL Meeting

/ tons of tripping the Eight fantastic"
at the coming event.
Remember, the quadrille, the square
dance and the barn dances will be the
order of the day and there might pos
sibly be a reigning belle of the former
days present who has not forgotten
the schottische and the Virginia reel.
Anyhow, it will be real old-fasfl-
ioned dance with real old-fashioned
people and real old-fashioned music
furnished by real old-fashioned
"fiddler.n
Then there will be number of the
old timers who were silver-tongued
orators in the days when Arizona was
young who will make addresses re-
calling those stirring days when a
mans life was in continual hazard.
Remember that it is unnecessary to
be member of any organization of
pioneers in order to be eligible to at
tend this reunion. All that is neces-
sary is to have the required term of
residence and then register with The
Arizona Republican in order that pro-
vision may be made for the enter
tainment of all who wish to attend
LHe affair.
Pioneers who live in other sections
of the state are assured of the an
nual motor trip through Salt River
valley, which has been a feature of
every reunion held so far.
Automobile rides to Riverside park,
which has been generously donated by
Richards & Mace, ice water, lots OF
shade, in fact every device for the
comfort of the pioneers will be pro-
yided by the committee in charge.
Remember the dates, Tuesday and
Wednesday, April 8 and g. The en-
tire two days will be given over to a
general jollification on the part of the
old-timers with the exception of
Tuesday afternoon, which will be de-
voted exclusively to the annual meet
ing of the Arizona Pioneers associa-
tion. While the annual meeting is
held at this time by the association,
the fact must not be taken to mean
that other pioneers are unwelcome and
the invitation is to every man and
woman who has lived in the state
80 years.

BUMPER LAMB CROP REPORTED
BY SHEEP FLOCKS IN VALLEY

The first bumper crop of the year
has been pronounced. Jubilant sheep
men are pointing to the largest lama
crop recorded in many years on the
desert ranges in the Salt river valley
and north toward Wickenburg, where
flocks from the northern ranges are
spending the winter and spring.
Sheep men declare that ideal con-
ditions have prevailed during the win
ter. First the heavy rains of the fall
produced an early supply Of grass and
proved sufficient to maintain the
grass throughout the winter. The
weather was warm during the WOO
gathering season. IdeaT weather con-
ditions prevailed as the spring crop
of lambs arrived.
Many of the flocks have been al
most doubled in size, sheep men say.
Market prices are good and wool
prices better. Sheep men will pros
per this season.

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
MARKET REPORT
: *++%s%%s4+*++++++ :
March II. 1924.


Cattle receipts were about in line
with expectations, and while more
Eastern markets were slow, prices
here were strong to higher. Heavy
SHOWS in Kansas and Nebraska will
cut down loadings for the rest Of this
week. Hogs opened lower, and closed
with better tone and nearly steady
with last week. Lambs were 10 cents
higher, top $3.50, a new high price
for the season.
TOday's Receipts
Today's receipts were 10000 cattle,
1000 hogs and 5000 sheep, compar-
ed with $4,000 cattle, $4,000 hogs, and
5000 sheep a week ago, and 1850
cattle, 14,175 hogs and 6,525 sheep a
year ago.
Beef Cattle
Though more Eastern markets
quoted lower prices for cattle, the
market here, under prospects for mea-
ger receipts the rest of this week,
ruled higher with some sales up as
much as 35 cents from last weeks
close. Reports from Kansas and Me-
braska stated that the heavy snow of
late Saturday and Sunday would de-
lay loadings for several days. Most
of the fat steers sold at strong prices,
and cows and heifers were up 10 to
25 cents. There was an active de-
mand. Handy weight yearlings and
choice steers were scarce. Veal calves
and bulls were steady.
Stockers and Feeders
Trade in stockers and feeders was
restricted some by unfavorable wealth
er conditions. However, demand was
sufficient to absorb the offerings at
last weeks prices, and good clear
ance was reported.
Sheep and Lambs
Practically all the offerings in the
sheep division were lambs that sold
at S15.25 to $3.50, the highest prices
of the season. The lambs that brought
$15.25, were Kansas fed, Texas grades
and Colorado fed lambs sold at $15.75
to $3.50.

SKY HIGH

The scream of the outlaw split the air,
AS we tied him hard and fast
To the snubbing- post in the horse cor
raj,
For his turn had come at last.
To learn the feel of spurs of steel
As they Craze along each side,
Red Bugger pulled up his chaps a
hole,
For he was the next to ride.
We knew he'd strike, we knew he'd
bite,
We knew he'd kick and rear,
So we grabbed his ears and held his
head,
Till Bugger got up near.
He stepped into the saddle
And hollered, "Let him go!"
We jerked the binder from his eyes,
Then stopped to watch the show.
You've heard of pitchin' horses,
From Steamboat down the line,
Old Barometer, an Step Fast,
An a mare they called Divine.
Old Priclxly Pear, an Pizen,
Lop Fears, an Stingaree-
They all wuz Shetland ponies,
Side this horse from Santa Fe.
We asked Red in tones solicitous
If he had made his will,
Had he any girl in Texas
Who really loved him still?
Was there any parting message
That he would like to send,
To some one in his old, old home
Who still might be his friend?
Who was his pet undertaken?
What parson should we get?
Would he have flowers on his coffin :?
| can hear old Bigger yet:
"Mosey, you four-flush punchers,
Don't weep no tears for me,
Pm a ridin' kid from Texas,
From the old Bar C!
"Get up, you old Cloud-Getter,
can see the Pearly Gate,
We're a-doin' the Grand Ascension,
Loopin' the loops, as sure as fate;
eff I'm judge of horses,
You're not one, two, three,
With the gentle stock we used to ride
At the old Bar c.!
He roweled him up and down;
He whipped old Sky High till he quit,
Old Sky High had a plenty,
He could hardly turn around.
An we heard old Bigger hummin',
Els he turned the outlaw free,
'1'm ridin' kid from Texas,
From the old Bar C!'
