NEW YORK. Hank
Thompson got his best con-
tract with the New York
Giants to the tune of $18,-
500 despite his bad year in
SIS.
AS usual, Hank will have
to fight several guys for his
third base job as young
Daryl Spencer. But the 80 year
old claims he's in the pink"
and no one will take his job
from him if he can help it.
Hank was Clip in the last
part OF the IS season. His
batting average took a tumble
from 1858 of the previous year
to .245. But then Hank seems
to have the pattern good

Jackie Rejects
Bigcut

BROOKLYN - Jackie Ro-
binson has been presented
with a Sc contract with the
Dodgers but since it included
a 1919 cut in salary, Jackie
has sent it back. Robbie is
believed to be getting $37,-
500 SO that he would be minus
$3.50 should he take the
cut.
Robinson has said over and
over he would not take a big
slice in pay, just to stay on
with the Dodgers. He feels
that had this first offer been
a SO cut, he would have
taken it. He's prepared to re-
main firm against 1919 cut.
The Brooklyn Office has issued
mo comment on Jackie's an
swer. Since he's leaving for a
southern trip, the matter can
not be resolved for at least
a week.

HOWARD TO
GET $4,000

NEW YORK - The Yankees
Elston Howard got a raise so
that he's now in the $4,000
a year bracket. ElSton sent in
his contract from st. Louis.
Last year, Howard figured
more as an outfielder since
Yogi Berra was in such fine
fettle. But this year, Manager
Casey Stengel promises to use
Elston more behind the bat.
Il figure that if Howard will
catch about 25 games when
Yogi is sitting down, that Yogi
will hit more when he is in
the lineup"
Elston finished last year
with ,290 batting average
and this included 81 hits with
10 home runs and seven
triples, eight doubles.

to lighter cattle for feed lots. 1.-The de-
mand is for steers going into feed
lots at from 700 to less than $50 pounds
and finishing at choice $50 to 1850
pounds This is the size carcass the
retail trade is demanding now.
California feeders were penalized
heavily last fall on overweight cattle.
Where 1,0O0-pound steer would bring
$2O.5O, heavy, overweight steer would
bring $19 to SIG. 5O-plus the fact that
it had already cost that much more
in feed to feed the heavier steer, for
what you get out of it.
Most of the fall 1855 sales were at
$3.50 for 1,OOO-pound cattle and $1S
to $3.50 on heavier weights. The feed
ers want good quality, short legged,
blocky animals, steers or heifers, but
with preference for steers But there
would be good deal more heifer feed
ing in California lots if Intermodntain
cattlemen would spay their heifers or
run them open so there wouldn't be
any danger of their dropping calves
about the time they are ready for
market.
DehOrned, CaStrated Calves
With weaver calves and light year.
hngs to go on grass, bought in the
winter months, feeders look for well
dehorned, good quality calves. They
like steer calves to be castrated with
knife and not paste or burdizzio, as
these methods usually show up about
III per cent stays by the next spring.
The knife is sure and he thinks ranch
erS would give 81 per 100 pounds more
for a well castrated and dehorned calf
as compared with another in question
able condition.
White-faced cattle are preferred by
most feeders but a few prefer Angus
and some will take the first crosses of
croSs-bred cattle but after that, they
don't have the vigor or performance,
Holtzclaw said. Most feeders are very
particular about weighing conditions
at the Intermountain points, as there
have been few times when cattle are
tanked up and by the time they have
taken the rail trip to California, have
shrink in excess Of 10 or IL per cent.
The trip takes or days, he pointed
out, and results of shipping fever,
pneumonia or mishandling sometimes
show up. Vaccinations given in Montana
before shipping would help a lot, he
said. And he thought the Montana
rancherS could be assured of making up
the cost of the vaccinations. Because
