Cowboys Still
Come To Dodge

DODdG Vi {, Nan. tAI J-DdCh
in the early 1870s this was a rough
and ready town, the end of along
dusty trail for cowboys driving
cattle from Texas and Oklahoma.
Their pockets replenished by a
hefty payday, thirsty cowhands
headed for the saloons and poker
tables. Some wound up on Boothill,
burial ground for those too slow on
the draw.
Today, this bustling, modern city
of $4,000 seldom sees a gun fight.
Under Kansas strict liquor laws
taverns can't sell anything strong
er than beer. Gambling is prohibit
ed. But cowboys and ranchers con-
tinue to congregate here.
Because in one respect Dodge
City hasn't changed much, the cat
tie business is bigger and better
than ever
Dodge City has the states larg-
est livestock sales ring business
where livestock is sold at auction.
AS a matter of fact, the folks
here tell you more feeder and
stocker cattle are sold at auction
in Dodge City than any city in the
world. They back up their claims
with cold figures.
In the past two years, NOR e
than 1900 head of cattle, worth
more than $121 million, have been
sold through Dodge City's two live
stock sales rings-as much as So
million worth in one week.
Within a $50 mile radius of the
city, you might find in a peak per-
iod 100000 head of cattle grazing
on steers delight, lush wheat
pasture
In the immediate vicinity of
Dodge City, there are nine COM
merical feed lots with a total ca
pacity of about $4,000 head of cat
tle
These commercial operators feed
cattle for anyone, speculator, drug
store cowboys or full time ranch
ers, using the latest mechanical
equipment.
But the livestock sales rings
don't only draw their supply from
the Dodge City area. Cattle e
shipped from and to such distant
points as Florida, California a d
Washington. Buyers come from all
over the country.
Livestock sales rings are not
new but the volume of cattle be-
ing marketed in this manner has
been growing tremendously in re-
cent years.
Harry Hessman, a rancher east
of Dodge City, kept one eye on a
group of sleek calves milling a.
round the sales ring as bidders
upped the price under the auction
eer's machine-gun chant, an
commented:
1--WE sold cattle all over, includ-
ing the big terminal markets. But
this market is closer and more con-
venient. You save on transporta-
tion costs. And the big thing, the
prices are just as good, sometimes
better"
There are more buyers and
more competition here than a t
livestock terminals" says Ted Nc
Kinley of the Mckinley Winter
Livestock Commission Co., "We've
got more bidding here"
The development of highways,
truck transportation and h e
changing nature of the small town
are factors in the growth of COM
munity sales rings.
Unlike the old days when cattle
owners dickered with buyers in a
noisy saloon, rickety building or
on hot, dusty street, their mod
ern-day counterparts have the best
of facilities.
Milford chronicle., 1962-05-25

They can sit back in theater-type
seats, in an air conditioned build
ing as the auctioneer does t h e
pleasing and goading for a higher
price.
If they want a good meal, they
can go down on the first floor to
spic and span restaurant. Or, if
they need new pair of boots or
hat, they can step into an up
to date Western clothes store over
looking the sales ring.
Nobody will venture a guess on
just how big the cattle business
really is in the area or it's total
effect.
But it's pretty hard to dispute
local citizens who proudly pro-
claim:
Dodge City is the cowboy and
cattle capital of the World"

ACE OF A FAMILY

ENID, Okla. (AP) = In a period
of slightly more than ten years,
three members of one family have
made a hole-in-one on the third
hole of the Oakwood Country Club
course.
Louis E. Mcclellan did it first
on Feb. 20, 1852. He used a five
iron on the par 8, 145-yard hole.
On March 6, this year, his 15-year-
old son, Scotty, did it with a four
iron. On March 25 Mrs. Mcclellan
made the ace with a six-wood.

Vincent de Paul
Opens New Shop

replices the one which had
been located at SIS East Rich
Street and which has been
razed. The main store at 987
North High Street still con-
tinueS to operate.
The East Rich Street Store
was the original location of
the Saint Vincent de Paul
Shop, having been establish
ed by the late Bishop James
j. Hartley in 1886 with FIR.
Leo Brehm as director. Its
purpose was, and still is, to
give clothing and furniture to
the poor, to sell used but serv-
iceable articles of clothing,
furniture and appliances at a
reduced cost as a help to
those who wish to buy, but
cannot afford new articles
and to provide employment
for handicapped persons. Any
money realized over and
above expenses is used COM
pletely for charitable pur-
poses.
THE CLOTHING AND fur
niture which the st. Vincent
de Paul Shop gives away or
sells at a nominal cost, is OBJ
tanned from generous donors
in the parishes of Columbus.
The Shop operates a truck
which picks up the articles in
response TO calls received at
the Store.
In addition, the st. Vincent
de Paul Society conducts a
clothing drive each week in a
different parish of the city in
order to obtain materials for
the shop. The Society receives
financial help from the stores
for carrying out its charitable
works.
In August. 1860. the Sec
ond sales outlet was obtained
at 987 North High Street, Co
lumbus, and headquarters of
the st. Vincent de Paul Shop
operations were transferred
to this new location.
The Rich Street Store con-
tinued to operate through
out most of 1861, and the two
stores, together, gave away
more than $4,000 worth of
clothing and furniture. There
is a need for two stores, and
with the closing of the Rich
Street Store, this need is met
by the new store at 1877 West

intention to place a levy for
welfare purposes upon the
ballot at the primary election
in May.
This appears to be the
only source to which the city
and county can look to obtain
funds to relieve the fast
growing welfare crisis which
exists locally. If help is to be
found, another attempt to
pass a levy seems to be de-
manded," Monsignor Corcoran
said.
Several suggestions have
ben made regarding the type
of levy or levies which might
be presented to the voters:
"a child welfare levy-the

"VT is OBVIOUS that
something needs to be DONE"
Monsignor Corcoran said. "The
other day, a family came to
st. Stephens Community
House for help, hopeful to
receive some food for their
bare cupboards. One of these
children had only water for
nouriShment for three days"
Last week the Catholic We'll
fare Bureau had to place five
children Of one family be-
cause the family, on relief,
had been evicted for non.
payment of rent.
Newspapers this week said
that James w. Grant, the very
capable Executive Secretary
of the Welfare Board, was
thinking of reSigning." Mon
signor Corcoran noted. ''This
would be a very serious blow
to the program of this ex-
tremely improved agency"
The poor of Franklin Coun-
ty need help now, but because
the November welfare levy
failed, the help is not avail
able, he said, 1.-THE month Of
May might seem a long time
away but a decision must be
made about the levy now.
Lack of a positive decision by
the commissioners and by the
voters will mean added hard
ship and increased suffering
for these families during 1862.
1.-THE decisions made will
reflect the humane and char
liable quality of conscience
of our officials and of our
citizens" Monsignor Corcoran
said.

More Gifts
To Springs

More business firms

year to operating funds

Importance of these bust
