Some shipments of grass fed cattle will arrive at the yaftls before the first of the month," predicts C. W. Lockard of Eric son, Wheeler county, Nebraska, at the Merchants. ' "Considerable cattle, fattened during the winter, have already been shipped this spring and I think they will keep coming in pretty strong. But as soon as feeders drop In, there should be a break in the present high prices. Cen tral Nebraska never has had a better cat tle outlook and it is hard for us to see the reason for present prohibitive prices. "Conditions during the last eight months were never better since 189S when cattle were left on the range all winter. Cool Weather Helps. "The cool weather has been a great help to hay and small grain. Farmers are cutting their first crop of alfalfa and winter wheat is heading fine. But best of all is the hay which has been helped out by the recent rains and cool weather. Cattle are going right after It and are picking up weight strong. The attending cool weather and rains of the (last two weeks have been of inestimable value to the cattlemen as well as the planter of small grain."
