Kansas' Distress
Some time ago E R. Danlelson, Sec
itslnry Stale Board of Agtleiiltuio re
ceived a commuicatlnn from J. C.
Mohler, Secretary of tho Kansas State
Board of Agriculture stating that the
Kansas corn Crop wns a failure and
that this would compcll hog men of
that state to place their young pigs ou
the market. In that this immature
stulT should not be marketed he sug
gested that periiaps the State Board of
Agriculture of Nebraska could interest
Nebraska farmers in the matter nnd
thus sive these pigs.
Secretary Danielsou immediately
started a publicity campaign, many
daily papers devotlug considerable
space to the matter, with the result
that many Nebrwsknns have taken car
load of thes tocks, wliiUJothers clubbed
together and sent in their orders.
Although many orderb have been re
ceived the situation hos not been ex-
tiroly relieved. Farmers aro request
ed to communicate with Secretary
Mohler as soon as' possblo lu order
to relievo this distress. The porkers
must be saed, It Is now up to the
fanners of Nebraska.
Manner and Customs,
- Tho manners of somo pcoplo en
countored In taking walks abroad aro
BUBgostlvo of tho report niado by the
old British pea captain who was sent
out to Investigate tho manners and
customs of tho inhabitants of a newly-discovered
Pacific Island. His ro
port was brief, na follows: "Manners
they have none, and their custom!
are beastly."
Kansas City Market
Kansas City Stock Yards, Sept. .1.
Cattlo receipts were 21000 head, mar
ket steady to strong on decent killing
cattle, following a decline of 25 to Co
cents on most of tho cattle after Tues
day last week. Hous today 1000, mar
ket strong, top SIS-S0. ' Sheep and
lambs .jU0 head, market steady six
cars of AriKonas at the top, lli 83.
Beef Cattle

to S12, light steers -SfifiO to ?10r0,
Oklahoma steers ST.fiO to 10 r.O, a train
of Northwest Nebraska steers weigh
lug around IO.'iO lbs at 610 23. Some
two year old panhandles normally be
longing In the stocker class, W0 lbs.,
sold to killers at SS.73, against it bid i f
SS.fid from country buret's. Butcher
ca'.tleaie barely steady, veal calves
lilglier, best veals S 1,1.00.
Stackers and Feeders
Best demand Is for fleshy feeders,
nnd In addition, packers bid on these,
sales up to S1.1 '.v, for immediate feed
lug. Regular feeding weight steers
sell at 8: to 310.50, and stock steers
range from ST to c8 .".0, mostly, one lot
of common Old Mexican yearlings,
grazed for a time In New Mexico, sell
ing today at u".
Hogs
Tlie market would have been higher
except for some uncertainty duo to
meat control articles published yester
day. Receipts were light everywhere
and prices paid were steady, top S18.Su,
medium weights $18.73, lights SIS 10,
bulk of sales S17.7:. to IS 70. Very U vr
pigs are coming, and prices are high,
lfi.r.O to 10.30. Apparently farmers are
holding back young hogs, as average
weight of hogs jumped up 10 pounds
hero last week, 100 lbs, as compared
with ISO lbs previous weelc. With
packers holding army contracts for
pork products, which carry a penalty
clause for non-fullllnieiit. tlie market
looks safe, but there are those who st y
that immune stock hogs at 17 to is'cts
a pound, present prices for them, are
poison.
Opening of Schools
The high school students of last year
who may wish to change their regist ra
ti in, together with those s'udonts who

Friday or Saturday p. m. of this weelc

About seventeen of the local boys
were brought up before Judge Rati ner,
the first of the week, for stealing water
melons and destroying the patches.
The judge gave them a good lecture
