er markets, also.
Among the many reasons Kansas
City Is drawing cattle and sheep this
season from exceptionally broad
areas is the rapid growth of Its stock
er and feeder business. In the
month of September, for example, ac
cording to a compilation by the Chi
cago Live Stock World, Kansas City
made a highly gratifying comparison
In rtocrer and feeder cattle and In
feeding sheep business. Develop
ment In October to date In Kansas
City point to a continuance of such a
showing.
Here are the figures on stocker
and ' feeder cattle shipments from
leading markets In September and in
the same month a year ago:
Sept., Sept.,
1915 1014
Chicago 36,144
Kansas City 133,684 113,868
South Omaha . 76,862 74.191
South St. Paul 70,107 20.858
Kant St. Louis 31,752 25,767
Sioux City 29,840 22.838
South St. Joseph .. 15,261 9,211
til was the largest on record In Kan
sas City with the single exception of
October, 1911, when 159,864 feeding
lambs and sheep were sent out. Com
parisons follow:
Sept., Sept.,
1915 1914
Chicago 175,417
Kansas City 130,243 43,831
South Omaha 411,204
South St. Paul 39,394
East St. Louis 20,4 21
Sioux City 24,215
South St. Joseph . . 64,230
337.907
17,391
4,384
24,422
20,054
Total 357.506 302.877
This table shows Kansas City's un
questioned leadership in stocker and
feeder cattle business. The big gain
reported by South St. Paul, Kansas
City believes, may be due In part to
the routing of shipments to this mar
ket through that point, for probably
more cattle have come here from the
Northwest this season than In any
other fall In the history of the live
stock Industry. ' The fact that South
Omaha shows a relatively unimport
ant Increase Indicates that Kansas
City is so popular as a stocker and
feeder market that feeder buyers
who formerly patronized Chicago are
turning to the local yards. That
they are finding satisfactory results
hero Is evidenced by the return trips
some of the new buyers have already
made and by the additions to the
trading contingent on this market.
Kansas City's receipts last month
were affected adversely so far as its
Immediate territory Is concerned, by
wet weather, so the Increase in stock
er and feeder business in comparison
with other markets s gratifying in
deed. In fedelng lambs and sheep, Kan
sas City's September showing Is fully
as favorable. Tho shipments from
this market reached 130,243 head,
compared with only 43,831 the same
month last year. The September to-
Total .679.707 623,406
Credit must be given Kansas City,
in addition, for a business In stock
hogs surpassing that of any other
market In the country. If -Kansas
City continues to grow as It did last
month, this market may be able to
claim leadership in feeding lambs
and sheep as well as in stocker and
feeder cattle and stock hogs. The In
terchanging of feeders from cattle to
sheep 1b becoming so common that
Kansas City is bound to demonstrate
to flockmasters that it will pay them
to help make Kansas City the leader
in all classes of unfinished stock bus
iness. '

Miude Muller on a summer day.
Watching her meadows rank with hay.
Thought she'd sell a car or two.
To buy herself some "fixinV new.
The day was hot, the fields were gay.
The judge come riding down that way.
"I'll ask the judge," said the maiden fair,
"Where to find a commission firm that' square.
With modest mien the maiden stood
Just where the stream came from the wood,
And proffered to the thirsty man.
Refreshing drink and palm leaf fan.
When thirst was quenched and cooling breeze
Had made the traveler more at ease,
He noted the maid who stood near by.
With crimson cheek, and rparkling eye.
"A boon, fair maid." the judge opined,
"I must confer on one so kind.
Name now your wish, and if it be
Within my possibility.
Right glad am I to grant your prayer.
It will be naught unwise, I swear."
The maid looked up with 'witching re.
"If you'll but tell me some good place
Where I may ship a car of hay.
And get GOOD returns at an early day.
Your debt will be most amply paid.
"Why. that is easy," the good judge said,
"Allay your doubts, and calm your fears.
Ship where I've shipped for twenty years.
They treated me square, they'll treat you the same.
Just wait one moment, I'll give you the name."
And forth from his pocket this card he took:

The maid accepted with grateful look.
And touching the spur to his dappled gray.
The benevolent jurist rode away.
Maud took his advice and shipped her hay
To the good firm mentioned, and truih to say.
Shipped not only one car, but all the year through,
And bought from her neighbors and wealthy grew.
And blessed the day when the judge came down.
Where she stood by the brook in her last year's
gown.
That glorious, sunny, summer day.
When she didn't know what to do vita her hay.
