KANSAS CITY STOCK
YARD REPORT
December 26, 1924
By CHAS. M. PIPKIN
Correspondent

Following liberal receipts Monday,
the general movement of livestock
was reduced the rest of the week by
the severe cold and storm conditions
that overspread the west With tenn
peratures in Missouri, Iowa, Nebrac-
ka and Kansas, zero or below this
morning, it does not seem probable
that heavy shipping will be establish
ed until after next week. Thursday,
Christmas day, practically all stock
yards were closed to regular bust
ness, except receiving and caring for
stock.
Receipts this week were 44,625 cat
tie, 1875 calves, 81,825 hogs, and 22,-
525 sheep, compared with 59,225 cat
tie, 12,8OO calves, 83,760 hogs, and 26,-
$50 sheep last week, and 45,050 cat
tie, 11,050 calves, 81, 800 hogs, and 22,-
$50 sheep week ago.
Cattle prices this week were un-
even. Monday the market was lower,
steadied Tuesday and advanced sharp
ly Wednesday. The net change for
the week in most classes of fat steers
is Is to 25 cents. How much of this
is due to weather conditions is hard
to estimate, but all indications are
that receipts will be light and that
the market will show a further ad-
vance. Choice to prime full fed yearl-

ings sold at $10.75 to $1425, the last
named price being the highest of the
season. Such cattle remain in the
class of specialties. Prime medium
weight steers sold up to $11.50 and
strong weight steers up to $1035. The
top for heavy steers was 1915. The
bulk of the short fed steers sold at
1925 to $8.25. Gamer and cutter COWS
were Is to 25 cents higher, medium
COWS and heifers were steady, and
choice COWS and heifers higher. Veal
calves broke SO cents. Bulls were
steady.
In the first two days Of the week
there was fairly good demand for
stockers and feeders at steady prices.
Since then few thin cattle were Of
fered and trade was dull. Offerings
were cleaned up.
Hog prices in the past two days ad-
vanced 35 to 40 cents and today were
the highest of the past several weeks
The heavy marketing from the north
ern and eastern sections of the corn
belt were checked by the cold wave
Whether moderating weather will
bring a renewal of heavy shipping is
doubtful. 1t the runs fall off next
week there will be a further advance
The top price today was $3.50 and the
bulk of sales 1895 to $685.. Packing
sows sold at soto 1920 and stock hogs
and pigs $3.50 to Sc.
Lamb prices today were quoted up
25 cents. This advance took the gen
eral market SO cents above last week
and into new high position for the
season. The bulk of the lambs sold
at $15.25 to $15.75. Yearlings brought
$11.50 to $12, wethers SO to 1915 and
fat ewes So to $3.50.

An Unusual Traveller

An annual traveller is Imp, a
black cat with impish and preten-
sious ways, whose domicile is the
Santa Fe freight station. Living
around ever moving trains and
railway men who come and go
with the ever changing day, Imp
has acquired something of the in
effable wanderlust of the knights
Of the road.
To satisfy this uncomfortable
urge Imp has become somewhat
of black knight of the road him
self. In fact he has taken two
trips to Flagstaff, travelling de
luxe on the local. Imp is a fasti-
dious cat and will not condescend
to ride in box car, but must
have his cushioned corner in the
caboose. Lately he has been cast
ing designing eyes on the Cali
fornia Limited. Those who know
him will not be surprised if he
hops on the Santa Fe's most ex-
elusive and finest some pleasant
day and hies to the coast for a
dip in the ocean.
The first time Imp journeyed
to Flagstaff, he hid under the
caboose bunk so as not to attract
any more attention than necessary
When he made his appearance,
the first thing he did was to run
in front of a superstitious brake
man. who backed out of the ca
boose and ran the whole length
of the train to warn the engineer
to be on the lookout for an i'm
pending calamity. During the rest
of the trip Imp had the brake
mans bunk all to himself, and
strange though it may seem to
some the local arrived safely at
Flagstaff.
A message of inquiry on the
part, of the local agent establish
ed Imp's identity with the result
that when he goes to the noun
tain city, he is issued an o. S.
A. D. report, that is over, short
and damage; and care is taken
that he is placed on return train.

Do you doubt the efficacy, prin-
ciples and ideals of the Boy
Scouts?
Listen to this.
The other day a member of
Troop No. 8, the recently organ
lied Spanish boys troop, made, a
bad remark about his teacher at
the Southside school. Several of his
.schoolmates, who also belong to the
troop, heard the unsavory remark,
and they secretly held a meeting
to determine what they should do
with the offender. They decided
that they did not want him in
their organization. Calling upon
Raphael Estrada they told him
about the offense and made their
decision known to him. Mr.. Estra-
da took the matter up with the
boys father, who asked that the
lad be allowed to remain in the
troop as the organization was
doing him a great deal of good.
With a promise to live up to the
Scout laws. the boy was welcomed
back into the troop by the other
members. Pretty noble ideals, eh :?
Yes, and what a paradise this
old world would be if everyone
had such high convictions.
