Kansas City Market ' Kansas City Stock Yardp, April 10, 11)17 Cattle receipts of 13000 sold mostly steady today, some steer sales 10 lower, top 12.75. Hog receipts were 12000, market steady early but 10 lower nt the close, ttop $10.25. Sheep and lambs sold steady to slroug with some haggling over prices, re ceipts 5000, top lambs S15.G0. REEF CATTLE Kansas native steers sold at $12.05 and $12.75, and two loads of choice pulp fed Westerns brought $12.75. These top cattle sold steady. Middle grades of native steers were 10 low er, sales from $10.50 to 12.25, light weight silage fed steers $8.75 to 10. 25. Whatever weakness there was on steers today was due to the fact that Chicaog had a good run both last spots in the market. The general situation Is strong, nnd advances are scheduled, especially on top grades. Cows nnd butcher grades sold steeady today, with good cows at $1) to $10. 7r, lower grades of cows und ennners downwards to $0.50. Hulls bring $8. 50 to $10, veal calves up to $1U. STOCKERS and FEDEERS Feeders sold un to $11.15 last week nnd stock stecra to $10.30, all of the decline of the week before having been regained. The market is steady today, with most of the stock steers selling at $8.25 and upwards, feed ers, $9.50. During the first half of April this year 20000 stockos and feeders went to the country from here 0000 more than samo days last year. HOGS For nearly a week packers have used every effort to depress prices, hut the top today was $16.25, only 5 cnets under the highest point reach ed so far this year, paid last Thurs day. Shippers made the early mar ket, paying up to $1G.25 but packers held out, nnd bought their hogs 10 lower, at $10.15, bulk of sales $15.70 to $10.15. It a belevcd that the pack ers' position is arbitrary, and that the market will make some strong ad vances in the near future, although it is likely that the Government will stop the advance within reasonable limits. SHEEP and LAMRS Lambs sold up to $15.00, not quite top quality mostly of tho good lambs around $15.50, clipped lambs about $3 under wool skins, yearlings worth up to $14.25, wethers $13.25, ewes, $13, clipped Angora brusher goats sell up to $7.50 fat ones $8, undipped Angoras to "killers up to $9, slick haired gonts $0.50 and upwards. Re ceipts will run light here for n month or six weeks and the market should rule strong. J. A. RICKART. Cor.

WILSON URGES UNITY FOR SUCCESS OF THE WAR President Makes Address to the Peo ple on their War-Time Conduct Appeal Should He Read by All Citizens and Heeded Washington, April 15 In a person al appeal addressed tonight to his fel low countrymen, President Wilson cnlls upon every American citizen man, woman and child to join toge ther to make the nation a unit for the preservation of its ideals and for tri upmh of democracy in the world war. "The supreme test of the nation has came," says the address. "We must all speak, act and serve together." Putting the nnvy on n war footing and raising n great army tire the sim plest parts of tho great task ahead, tho president declares, and he urges all the people with particular emphn sis on his words to tho farmers, to concentrate their energies, practice economy, prove unselfishness and dem onstrate efficiency. The nddrcss fol lows: "My fellow countrymen: "The entrance of'our beloved coun try into the grim nnd terrible war for democracy nnd human rights which has shaken the world, creates so many problems of national life nnd action which call for immediate considera tion and settlement that I hope you will permit me to address you a few words of earnest counsel and appeal with regard to them. "We are rapidly putting our navy upon an effective war fotting and are about to create and equip a great army, but these are the simplest part3 of the great task to which we have ad dressed ourselves. There is not a single selfish clement, so far C3 I can see, in the cause we are fighting for. We are fighting for what we believe and wish to bo the rights of mankind and for the future peace and security of the world. To do tills great thing worthily and successfully we must de vote ourselves to the service without regard to profit or material advan tage and with an energy nnd intelli gence that will rise to the level of the enterprise itself. We must realize to the full how great the task is nnd how many things how many kinds and el ements of capacity and service and self-sacrifice it involves. These, then are the things we must do and do well besides fighting the things without which fighting would be fruitless. "We must supply abundant food for ourselves and for our armies nnd our seamen not alone but nlso for a large part of the nations with whom we have now made common cause, in whose sup port nnd by whose sides wc shall be fighting. Must. Supply Allies. "We must supply ships by the hun dreds out of our ship yards, to carry to the other side of the sea, subma rine or no submarine, what will ev ery day be needed there and abundant" material out of our fields nnd our mines and our factories with which not only to clothe and equip our own forces on land und on sea, but laso to clothe and support our people for whom tho gallant fellows under arms can no longer work, to help clothe and equip the armies with which we are cooperating in Europe and to keep the fires going in ships at sea and in the furnaces of hundreds of factories n cross the sen; steel out of which to make arms and ammunition, both here and there; rails for worn out railways hack of the fighting fronts, locomo tives and rolling stock to tnke the place of those every day going to pieces; mules, horses, cattle for labor nnd military purposes; everything with which the people of Englnnd, France, Russia and Italy have usual ly supplied themselves, but acnr.ot now afford tho men, tho material or the machinery to make. "it is evident to every thinking man that our industries, in farms. In shin jiui " me minus, m me lactones, must be made more prolific and more efficient thnn ever and that they must be more economically managed and better adapted to the particular requirements of our task than they have been; and what I want to say is that the men and tho women who de vote their thought and their ener gies to these things will be serving their country nnd conducting the fight for peace nnd freedom just as truly and just as effectively as the men on the battlefield or in the trenches. The industrial forces of the country, men and women alike, will be a great na tional, a great international army of service a notable and honored host engaged in the service of the nation and the world, the efficient friends and saviors of free men everywhere. Thousands, nay, hundreds of thous ands of men otherwise liable to mili .......1 .- II.. ! ' i ...... . tary service will of right and neces sity be excused from that service and assigned to the fundamental, sustain ing worn oi tne tields and factories and mines, and they will be as much part of the great patriotic forces of the nation as the men under fire. Addresses Farmers. "I take the liberty therefore of ad dressing this word to the farmers of the country, and to all who work on tho farms: The supreme need of our own nation nnd of the nations with which we are cooperating is an abun dance of supplies, and especially of foodstuffs. Tho importance of an adequate food supply, especially for the present year, is superlative. With out abundant food, alike for the ar mies and the peoples now at war, tho whole great enterprise upon which we have embarked, will break and fail The world's food reserves are low. Not only during the present emer gency but for some time after pence shall have come both our own people nnd a large proportion of the people of Europe must rely upon the har vests of America, upon the farmers of this country, therefore, in large measure, rests the fate of the .war and the fate of tho nations. May the nation not count upon them to omit no step thnt will increase the produc tion of their land or that will bring about tho most effectual cooperation in tho sale and distribution of their food products. Tho time is short. It is of the most imperative importance that everythng possible be done and dono immediately to make sure of largo harvests. I call upon young men nnd old nlike and upon tho nbel bodied boys of tho land to accept apd act upon this duty to. turn in hosts to the farms and mnke certain that no pnins nnd no other labor is lacking in this great matter. Urges Abundant Acreage "I particularly appeal to the farm ers of the south to plant abundant foodstuffs as well as cotton. They can show their patriotism in no bet ter way or more convincing way than by resisting tho grent temptation of the present price of cotton nnd help ing upon n great scale to feed the nation and the people everywhere who are fighting for their liberties and for ther own. The variety of their crops will be the visible measure of their comprehension of their na tional duty. "The government of tho United States nnd the governments of the several states stand ready to cooper ate. They will do everything pos sible to assist the farmers in secur ing nn adequate supply of seed, an ad equate force of laborers when they are most needed at harvest time, and the means of expediting shipments of fertilizers and farm machinery, as well as of the crops themselves when Harvested. The course ol trade shal be as unhampered as t is possible to maKo it and there shall be no un warranted manipulation of the na tion's food supply by those who han dle it on its way to the consurner. xiiia is our opportunity to uemon strato the efficency of the great de mocracy and we shall not fall short of it. "And let me say to the middle man of every sort, whether they are han dling our foods or our raw materials for manufacture or the products of our mills and factories: The eyes of the country will be especially upon you. This is your opportunity for signal service, efficient and disinter ested. The country expects you, as it expects ail others to forego unus ual profits, to organize and expedite shipments of supplies of every kind, especially food stuffs, with an eye to tho service you are rendering and in the spirit of those who enlist in the ranks, for their people, not for them selves, I shall confidently expect you to deserve and win the confidence of the people of every sort and station. "To the men who run the railways of this country, whether they be man agers or employes, let me say that the railways are the arteries of the nation's life and that upon them rests the immense responsibility of seeing to it thnt those arteries suffer no ob struction of any kind, no inefficiency or slackened power. To the merchant let me suggest the motto: "Small profits and quick service," and to tho ship builder the thought that the life of the war depends upon him. The food and the war supplies must be carried across the seas, no matter how many ships are sent to the bot tom. To the miner let me say that he "tands where the farmer does: The work of the world waits on him. If he slackens or fails, armies and states men are helpless. He also is enlisted in the great service army. The man ufacturer does not need to be told, 1 hope, that the nation looks to him to sneed nnd rinrfott pvpi-v tirnrpss nrwl I want only to remind his employes tnat tnr serveices arc absolutely in dispensable and are counted on by 'every man who loves the country and its liberties-. , "Let me suggest that every one who creates or cultivates n garden helps, and helps greatly to solve the problem of the feeding of the nntion.9 and that every housewife who prac tices strict economy puts herself in the ranks of those who serve the na tion. This is the time for America to correct her unpardonnble fault of wastefulness and extravagance. Let every man and every woman assume the duty of careful, provident use nnd expenditure as a public duty, as a dic tate of patriotism which no one can now expect ever to be excused or for given for ignoring. "In the hope that this statement oi the needs of the nation and of tha world in this hour or supreme crisis may stimulate those to whom it comes and remind all who need reminder of the solemn duties of a time such as the world has never seen before. I beg that all editors and publishers ev erywhere will give as prominent pub lication and as wide circulation as possible to this appeal. I venture to suggest nlso, to all advertising ag encies that they would perhaps render a very substantial and timely service to the country if they would give it widespread repetition. And 1 hope that clergymen will not think the theme of it an unworthy or inappro priate subject of comment and hom :'y from their pulpits. "The supreme test of the nation hns come. We must all speak, act and serve together. WOODROW WILSON." Notice of Final Report. In tho County Court of Webster county Nebraska. In tho matter of tho eitatoof Nlckll Sorgo ton, deceased.
