DELEGATES GIVE
fine REPORTS AT
W.C.T.U. MEETING

Members of the w. c. T. U. held
a successful meeting yesterday at
the Methodist Social hall, the fea-
ture of which was the presentation
of reports from the state convention
in Los Angeles. Mesdames Ange-
line Courtney, Eva Klintberg and
Sarah /. Stack, told a number of
interesting items regarding the con-
vention. all of which indicated that
the work of the w. c. T. u, both
in this state and nationally, is in a
flourishing condition.
\ report on the closing banquet
given at the City Club, where Miss
Belle Kearney, state senator from
Mississippi, and j. Frank Burke of
Santa Ana were the principal speak
ers was interestingly given. Mrs.
Stack, who STAYED over especially
for the laying of the corner stone
of the new home for old ladies
which is to be erected at Eagle
Rock, told of that event and report
ed that the Imperial Valley w. C.
T. [. was among the first to go over
the top with its quota for the home.
Another important item brought
out by the returned delegates was
the fact that the Los Angeles wom-
an s attorneys club of that city,
which has a membership of 65 wom-
en- lawyers, has joined the w. c. T.
L. in registering formal protest
against prize fighting and the show
ing of prize fight films.
Prospects Are Bright
"Never has the prospect for pro-
hibition enforcement in California
been so bright as at present. said
one of the returning delegates, quot
ing an address made by Mrs. Julia
4. Phelps, state director of regis
tration who gave one of the import
ant addresses before the ceAven-
ton.
"With a governor and other state
officials fearlesslv dry, so of the
40 senators dry by official count
and 90 of the so members of the
assembly, the prospect is very
bright. The big work of the next
year is to elect dry president and
a dry congress. Each year, the per
centage of drys in congress is be-
coming greater, and this is the OPP
portunity to achieve a 100 per cent
dry congress-
The quotation from Mrs. Phelps
address was enthusiastically re-
ceived, as were the other reports,
which brought forth much applause.
The returning delegates were given
the white ribbon salute at the close
of their reports.
The meeting opened with Mrs.
Stack presiding. Roll call was an
swered with scripture verses. Mrs.
Bridges was in charge of the devo-
tions and Mrs. Carmichael gave fine
flower mission report.
f. d. Griffin, probation officer,
presented a petition for the closing
of the international boundary, which
was heartily endorsed by the socie
ty, and signed by the individual
members.

"Trade and industry, still display
many irregular and conflicting fea-

the seasonal Easter urge toward spring
buying has been retarded by excessive

the weather has been more uniformly

been done, with the net result of an
expansion of buying over year ago.

THE LIVESTOCK SITUATION
:. BY j. A. McNAUGTON

LOS ANGELES, April 15-At this
season each it year it seems proper
to- consider the approaching marketing
period for grass cattle. Indications
are that grass cattle will be somewhat
later than usual this year This isn't
due to the fact that they will not be
ready to move but rather to the ten
dency on the part of producers to hold
their cattle as long as possible on
account of the scarcity of feeder stock
to replace their present holdings. Also,
many are desirous of taking advantage
of the good feed which is available and
will endeayor to put on all possible
weight rather than marketing them
when fat and in the proper condition.
AS has been amply demonstrated in
years past, it is the course of wisdom
to let the grass cattle come to market
when they are in good flesh and con-
dition and not to hold them in the hope
of putting on more weight or of secur-

FAT STEER PRICE
CLOSES HIGHEST
SEASONS LEVEL

DENVER, Colo, April Is GU. S. D..
o. A.).-Fat steer prices fluctuated
considerably on the middle western
markets with closing levels on the
best heavy kinds at the highest level
of the season, Chicago reporting a
runaway affair at the finish as COM
pared with a dull and lower market
at the outset of the week. Steer
values at Chicago on the close were
around 25 cents higher than a week
earlier, while at Omaha the declines
were offset by the advance so that
closing prices were mainly steady,
except on heavies which looked strong
to a little higher. The most irregular
market was at Kansas City, where
the general market closed steady and
some good to choice weighty ked
strong, but this was offset by weak
to 25 cent lower trade on medium to
good yearlings.
A further depression was noted on
mixed yearlings, such offerings regis
tering a 25 to so, cent decline The
yearling market in Chicago was tickle
on steers from $11.5O down and on
heifers at $1,000 and below. The new
high mark at Chicago was $14 on
1868 pound steers and although sew
eral loads cleared at rs to $13.S5 the
bulk with weight made. $1275 with
bulk at $10.50 to $1L.75. Some heavy
steers in Omaha cleared at $3.50 to
$13, while Kansas City registered a
new high mark of $1S.35 and reported
heavy Colorados at $13 to $13.25. Me-
dunn and heavy steers sold largely at
1915 to $12, while lights went chiefly
at $3.50 to $10.75, most mixed yearlngs
and fed heifers landing at IS to $10.15.
Chicago reported fat she stock 20
cents higher with cows at the highest
level since the World war days, heavy
Kosher COWS reaching 1913. Yearling
heifers were more numerous but some
sold up to $1,000. Cows and heifers
were chiefly steady in Omaha, al
though Neavy cows were Rs cents
higher. Most COWS went at 81 to $S.75
and heifers were chiefly taken at $3.50
to SO Kansas City indicated a strong
to 25 cents higher COW market with
sales largely at $3.50 to $S while heavy
heifers were firm in the face of sharp
drop in yearling kinds.
Missouri river markets reported
bulls strong to so cents higher with
the most upturn at Omaha, but prices
broke 10 to Is cents in Chicago where
medium kinds changed hands at 81
to $725 on late trading, Whilh at
river markets sales were largely at
$3.50 to $6.S5. Increased supply of
veal calves together with lapse in
Easter demand caused a heavy decline
at 50 at Chicago where bulk closed
around SO to SO, although outsiders
were still paying $12 and up for some.
Other markets were steady to so cents
higher with practical top $12.
Stocker and feeder steers were in
light to moderate supply and prices
ruled steady to strong although there
was some sIoWness at Chicago. At
that market demand centered on meaty
kinds from SO to 1925 but some half
fat 1,150 yound yearlings made $10.75
and thin stockers5 cleared downward
from $875 Missouri river markets
quoted the bulk of steers to country
buyers at $7.75 to 1925 with some
loads at $3.50 to $40.

ing better prices. When this course
is followed the danger is that too
many cattle are likely to be ready at
the same time later in the season and
there is always the possibility of de-
moralizing prices by, following this
practice. The longer the marketing
period is spread out the more salts
factory are likely to be the returns so
the advice still appears good to ship
when ready"
Even at this early date it is practical
in many grass producing sections to
start to top out the better cattle and
allow them to move to market and then
to continue this process throughout the
season. ~ 9t
Up to the present time sthe practice
of holding back grass cattle when they
are in condition to market, awaiting
problematic improvements in price
levels or increased weight has worked
a hardship rather than a benefit for
the producer as when the grass cattle
are not allowed to move in their mat
ural volume, other classes of livestock
come in and fill the gap and take ad-
vantage of stronger prices created by
the lessened grass cattle movement.
Then, eventually when the grass
cattle are forced to move they move
in such large volume, due to the
short period left for the operation, that
oversupplies result with depressed
prices
There is no necessity for situation
such as the above is the custom is fol-
lowed of allowing the flow of grass
cattle to come to the market in a nat
ural way spreading out the season to
the greatest possible length.
