YARD REPORT
April IS, 1925.
BY CHAS. NJ. PIPKIN
Correspondent

Opening and closing prices for
cattle were strong, but in the mid
die of the week the market sagged
and it took the strength at both
ends to offset the decline in the
middle. There was not sufficient
net change to show a price move
ment in either direction. Hog
prices broke moderately, and the
general hog market showed a rath
er narrow trade. Chicago and up
river points, with receipts so per
cent under a month ago, had slow
outlet. Because of the numerous
tclasses of sheep and lambs offered
the market was rather unsettled.
Receipts--For the week, cattle,
36,325; calves, 500; hogs, 26,070
and sheep, 28,925, compared with
32,10O cattle, $3.50 calves, 22,0S0
hogs, and 28,475 sheep last week,
and 27,85O cattle, $3.50 calves, 49,
$50 hogs and 26,075 sheep a year
ago.
Beef Cattle.
Cattle prices on Monday were 1Oc
to 25c higher. The next two days
there was a decline Of Csc to 40c,
and Thursday 10c to 15c rally.
The ups and downs of the week
left the closing prices about net I'M
changed. Trade at times was slow
but close clearance was effected
and from the amount Of inquiry as
to future supplies killers are an
ticipating an increased demand
following Lent. Choice to prime
medium handy and lightweight
steers sold at $11.00@11.50 Prime
! 1,670-pound steers brought $11.25,
and the bulk of the fed steers sold
at $9O0@11.00. Some Texas grass
fat steers brought $500, and meal
and hull fed steers $775@9.75 Col
orado pulp fed steers sold up to
$1,000. Prime COWS sold at $500
500, and prime heifers $4,000
I1O.75. Fair to good cows brought
| $5.O0@65O, and medium classes of
heifers $7.OO@8.5O. Veal calves
were about steady.
Suckers and Feeders.
| Following strong prices on Mon
| day trade in sotckerS and feeders
became narrow and a weekend de-
cline of 35c to 40c was quoted. Re-
ceipts have been fairly liberal, and
the recent high prices have re-
stricted demand.
Hogs.
! Hog prices fell back moderately,
but in the downward movement
there was an adjustment that mar
rowed the range of quotations ma
terially. Strong and heavyweight
hogs declined the most and the
light lights in spots were higher.
The top price was $13.05, and bulk
sales $12.5O@13.00. Light weights
are selling in line with medium
and heavyweights, and light lights
at $12.25@12.75 are relatively the
! highest of the season. Packing
sows brought $12.0O@$12.25, and
stock hogs and pigs $11.75 to $12.25.
Sheep and Lambs.
Native spring lambs at $4,000
1000, Arizona spring lambs at
S16.OO@16.75, and increased sup

Opening of the spring season
brought Improvement in a number
of business lines, and the general
situation compares well with year
ago.
Interest in agriculture centers in
cotton planting, a small increase in
acreage over last year being in

in 1924 was approximately 100000
bales. Grain and hay are doing
well.
Some improvement in range con-
ditions has resulted from rains in
the northern and eastern sections,

the southern part of the state con-

no noteworthy changes in the in
dustry in the state, and much devel

Building construction has been

cities during the last few months.
There has been considerable devel-

industries, reports of new plants.

Reports from wholesale and retail
trade lines vary, but the general
level is reflected in banking trans

exceeding February figures in all
cases, and figures for March of
last year with but one exception.
Agriculture.
Though low yields in Maricopa
county brought down the average,
cotton production in Arizona last
year exceeded 100000 bales. Total
ginnings for the state were 107 ,575,
and deducting cotton grown on the
California side and ginned at Yuma
and a little grown in New Mexico
and ginned at Stafford, the actual
Arizona crop amounted to approx
mately 100000 bales. Of this num-

Cotton planting is now well start

Maricopa and Yuma counties acre
age will be about the same; Pima

Graham and Pinal may have a
small reduction owing to water
conditions About 40 per cent of
the Maricopa county planting will

ODD FELLOWSHAVE
BIG DOIN'S HERE
SATURDAY NIGHT.

The Odd Fellows of Winslow last
Saturday night held an initiatory
ceremony, during which eleven
candidates elected to member
ship in the order were es-
corted on their Journey to Jericho
by members of visiting degree
teams from Gallup, Williams, Flag
staff and Prescott.
Members of the grand lodge pres
ent were Ray B. Krebbs, grand
master, Cochise; Fred G.. Moore,
deputy grand master; Arthur A.
Foster, grand warden, Flagstaff;
]. C. Simmons, grand herald, Will
liams; Henry Suder, grand repre-
sentative, Prescott.
Gallup ranked highest in attend
ance among the visitors, with a to-
tai of thirty-one present. Other
lodges were represented as follows:
Flagstaff, seven; Williams, four
Clarkdale, two; Buckeye, one.
Alex Robertson, Prince Albert
lodge, Moncton, New Brunswick, is
credited with being the member
farthest away from his home lodge.
Fred Mugford from Sovereign lodge
No. IS, Winnipeg, Man, was an
other brother far from home.
In travelling the road to Jericho"
the candidates were assisted by the
crack Gallup team, which conduct
ed the initiatory and first degree
in a most satisfactory manner.
At the finish of the first degree
the Prescott team relieved Gallup,
| taking the responsibility of contin-
uing the journey upon themselves.
Following the comforting of the
second degree recess was de-
clared and all adjourned to the
banquet hall, where the Rebekahs
had performed their duty as only a
Rebekah knows how One hundred
guests, members and candidates en-
tered the room hungry and tired
from a long journey. Two hours
later a new bunch walked out of
the same room refreshed and re-
plenished. During the two hours
spent in the banquet hall a three
course dinner had been consumed.
And when dinner" is said, modi-
fled by three and add to
this Served by Rebekahs," Odd
Fellows everywhere can under
stand.
Ray B. Krebbs delivered short
address at the close of the banquet,
dwelling on the aims of OddfellOw-
ship. Mr.. Krebbs, in a few short
we'll worded statements, explained
the aims of the order.
Following Mr.. Krebbs talk, j. c.
Spears, past grand master of New
Mexico, gave a speech directed to
the candidates. Mr.. Spears is an
interesting talker and his speech
was enjoyed by all. The last speak
err, Fred G. Moore, deputy grand
master of Prescott, talked for a
short time on the benefits of the
order, then all re-entered the lodge
room for the final degree.
The third degree was admins
tered by team composed of mem
bers from the Flagstaff and Will
liams. The finishing touches were
delivered by the team in a very
praiseworthy way. Ideals of Odd
fellowship were established deep in
the minds of all the candidates.

NORMAL DEBATES FRIDAY
FOR STATE CHAMPIONSHIP

In what promises to be an unusu-
ally interesting and holly contested
battle, the negative debaters of the
local normal will clash with an af-
firmative team from Oshkosh nor
NAL tomorrow in a state champion
ship debate. The River Falls affir-
NATIVE, winners over Superior three
weeks ago, will meet the Platteville
negative on the Platteville rostrum at
the same time. The question used
by the normals this year is one of
the big issues of the recent presi-
Dental campaign-the proposal of
Senator La Toilette to limit the
powers of the Supreme Court.
The Oshkosh team which will de-
bate here is said to be very strong.
The captain of the team won the
state extempore contest last week,
while one of his teammates took
second in the state oratorical con-
test. They are said to have had lit
tie difficulty in handling the Stevens
Point negative in their first debates.
Our negative, however, is expected
to give them stiff battle; since it
was one of the two negative teams
out of eight, to win in the first
rounds. 1t is composed of John
Burke, Margaret McDermott and
Carleton Ames, leader.
The local debate is doped to be the
deciding one of the triangle, as it is
expected that both River Falls and
Oshkosh should come out ahead in
their debates with Platteville. Wins
in this series would give Coach Nit
chell his second state championship
in five years of coaching.

NIGHT FIRE RAZES
HRDINA FARM HOME

The house, barn, machine sheds and
silo on the Emil Hrdina farm in the
town Of Kinnickinnic were totally
destroyed by fire of unknown origin
early Monday morning.
The family, awakened by the smell
of smoke, had barely time to escape,
and were unable to save anything
from the house or other buildings.
Their household goods and clothing
were consumed by the flames, and
most all of the harness, machinery
and considerable grain in the barns
met a like fate.
The blaze started evidently ur
stairs in the house and, famed by
high wind, made quick work of this
and other nearby buildings in SPITE
of heroic efforts Of the family ard
neighbors to check it.
The loss'is partially covered by in
surance.
