Area.
Lincoln, Dec. 19.—An increase elf 25
per rent In cattle on feed this veer
In Nebraska is announced today by
A. E. Anderson of the division of crop
and livestock estimates. The 11 Corn
belt slates have an average increase
of 27 per ceut compared to a year
ago The great importance of Ne
braska as a cattle feeder state is
shown by the fact that this state has
17 per cent of the actual number on
feed In the 11 corn belt elates.
The six corn licit states west of the
.Mississippi river average 30 per cent
Increase, while the five states cast
of the river have a 20 per cent in
crease. The largest Increase is in
Iowa, which is estimated at 50 per
cent, followed by Illinois with 35 per
cent and Nebraska, Missouri and
South Dakota with 25 per cent each.
The order in which the larger in
creases occur corresponds closely to
tjie corn situation as shown by the
present crop and stocks of old corn.
Total vhrlot receipts of cattle at
Nebraska feeding stations for 1 lie
months of August, September, Oc
tober and November wer# 34 per cent
mere than for tho same period lust
' ear. A* nearly as can l* determined,
per cent of the cattle on feed in Ne
brarka were shipped in and 31 per
cent raised locally.
31 Per Cent laical.
Weight classification* of feeder
cgttle in Nebraska at the time they
were received by the feeders were a*
follows: One .thousand pounds and
over. S5 pep cent: 750 to 1.000 pounds,
JO per cent; 750 pound* and under
(not including baby beefs). IS per cent,
and baby beef calves, 17 per cent as
determined from an individual feeder
survey. Intention expressed a* to
(he time of marketing were as fol
lows: 13 per cent in December: 12 per
cent in JAmlary; IS per cent In Feb
rijaryJ 17 pet cent in March; 13 per
cent in April: 10 per cent in May anti
17 per cent In June.
The individual feeder survey in Ne
braska indicated that 10 per cent of
the cattle on feed were purchased
direct from the range; 56 per cent
from .public stockyards and 34 per
tent were liaised locally.
According to individual feeders' re
turns from the cprn helt states, the
percentage of different weights of
cattle when placed on feed, was as
follows: One thousand pounds #hd
pier. 30 p* r rent, 750 to 1;OO0 pounds. ,
32 per cent.; 750 pounds and down (not
Including baby beefs), 20 per cent;
baby beef calves, IS per cent. The ex
pressed Intention of feeders as to the
time, of marketing cattle throughout
the corn' belt states was as follows.
Fifteen, pet cent in December. 14 per
cent in Jhhuary, 12 per cent in Feb
ruary. 13 per cent, in March, ll per
cent in April.. I* per cent in May and
19 percent after Juno 1. However,
market conditions and prices may
modify this.
Shipments of Stocker and feeder cat
tle from 07 public stockyards from
August 1 to December 1 were the
largest ever recorded, being 2.610,000
as against 1,388,000 In 18*1. 1.935,000
In 1920. 2.570.000 in 1919, 2.449.000 in
1918 and 2,415.000 hi 1917. For the 11
months. January 1 to December 1.
the shipments this year have been
exceeded only by those, of lilS and
1919.
Shipments Total 1,580,000.
In the year 1919. when the largest
.yearly shipments of Stocker ami feed
er rattje on record were made, the
shipments into the 11 corn belt slates
during the four months, August 1 to
December 1, were 1.580,000 head, with
475.000 going to the five state* east
of the Mississippi and 1.105,000 to the
six states west in 1920; in 1921, 1,262
000 went into these states, with SS4,
000 east and 875,000 west; in 1922.
1.967.000 head with 531,000 east and
1.433.000 west. While prices realized
by grower^ of feeding cattle have
been disappointingly low this year
compared to those prevailing for some
years prior to 1921. it would seem
that only the available' supplies ot
feed in the corn belt aird liio financial
ability and disposition of corn belt
feeders to buy has made possible the
tnaintaiuanco of a market for these
catlle at evert these prices.
Because of tlie decreased acreage of
sugar heets and higher prices of hay
1 here is a considerable decrease in
catlle on pulp feed In Colorado, tvest
ern Nebraska and WyVmirhg. There is
a small Increase in the Big Hole basin
in Montana and a 15 per cent in
crease in Utah, while the numbers in
Nevada and Idaho are ihe same. Spe
dal survey ef the Lancaster (Pa.) dis
trict Indicates an increase of 10 per
cent of cattle on feed this year, with
tlie numbers estimated at 129,000 as
against f 17,000 in 1921, 129,000 in
1920 and 127,000 in 1919,
This increased feeding does .not
necessarily mean a proportional in
crease in cattle received -at' markets
during the next five or six months as
the proportion of grain fed tattle in
the total receipts even at Chicago,
which receives the highest percentage
of grain finished cattle, very seldom
exceeds 60 per cent.

Loan to Germany
Declared to Be
Impossible Now
Statement by Morgan Says
Plan Out of Question Un
til Reparations Tan
gle Is Settled.
New York, Pec. IS.—(By A. I’d—
J p, Morgan & Co. last night issued a
statement declaring they had notified
the German ambassador to this coun
try "that it was impossible for us to
discuss or consider a loan to Ger
many unless and until the repara
tions question was settled."
This statement was Issued, it was
learned, to set at rest what were de
scribed as "highly fantastical stories"
which have been published regarding
the poesibllity of the flotation of an
international loan to Germany, ostl
mated as high as $1,500,000,000.
The statement follows:
"Pr. Otto VViedfeldt, the German
ambassador, called on Mr. Morgan
on Saturday to make inquiries as to
the possibility of our undertaking to
aesist tn floating a large, so-called In
ternational loan to Germany. In his
reply, Mr. Morgan adverted to the
statement that he had made follow
ing the sittings of the bankers’ com
mittce last July, and In effect told
the ambassador that his position was
exactly the s.upe as it was then.
Must Settle Reparations.
•’He informed Dr. Wiedfeidt that
while we greatly desired to he of ser
vice to the general situation, never
theless matters bad manifestly
reached such a point that it was not
possible for us to discuss or to con
sider a loan to Germany unless the
reparations question was settled."
Official denial was made of reports
that the Morgan firm had presented
"a plan" for the settlement of the
reparations' problem to the Washing
ton administration. While no official
comment was made during Mr. Mor
gan’s visit to Secretary Hughes tn
Washington last week, it Is under
stood the financier merely gave the
secretary his views on con<Jlti6ns in
Europe, whence he recently returned
after a six months’ visit. Mr. Morgan
was a member of an International
committee of bankers which met In
London last June to discuss the ques
tion of financial assistance to Ger
many.
The inquiry of Dr. Wledfelt is said
io be the first direct proposal to
American blinkers for assistance of
Germany.
In his report of the international
committee of bankers. Mr. Morgan as
serted the American investor would be
interested in German obligations only
if it were satisfactorily established
First, that such a loan should he at
the request or would be for the bene
tit of the allied nations.
Second, that through the technical
security to he given by Germany and
the rehabilitation of Its Internal finan
cat situation, Germany should clearly
show a desire to meet its obligations
in the hope that by the fulfillment
of these obligations it would re-estab
llsh its credit as one of the commer
cial nations of the world.
L\ S. Stand Iteresled.
Washington, Pec. IS.— Adjustment
of the reparation* dispute between
London and Taris is the crux of the
European tangle, in the American
viewpoint, as stated here on compe
tent authority. Talk of any Ameri
can loan to Germany was described
as "idle" until such an adjustment
had been made.
It was also made clear that the
question of allied war debts to the
United tftates is not viewed in Wash
ington as involved in the Anglo
French differences as to the amount
Germany can pay. Beyond this, of
ficial spokesmen refused to go in out
lining what the Washington govern
ment had in mind. There was no hint
as to the purposes or progress of in
formal discussions with allied leaders
which have been indicated both here
and abroad to be under way. No an
swer was returned to Inquiries as to
Whether Germany had again sought
American Intervention in the reparft
tions difficulty.

The Joy of a Record
that is Virtually Noiseless
THOSE grinding, scratching surface
noises that have so insistently made
themselves heard through the music you
love will now annoy you no more. Be
cause Columbia has discovered a process
which produces a phonograph record sur
face so fine in texture, so marvelously
smooth that the needle travels over it
almost inaudibly.
This new and unbelievably quiet sur
face makes the phonograph what it should
be, a musical instrument of the highest
and purest type—giving you every in
flection, the most delicate phrasing, ex
quisitely expressed shades of harmony
that have previously been lost in ob
trusive surface sounds.
The new Columbia Records out to
day are all made with this ultra fine,
ultra smooth and quiet, new surface.
Take “Fate,” as a good sample—Ted
Lewis playing the latest fox-trot, which
New York has gone wild over—it's won
derful 1
• . . . - r * .
You dance above a city of chalk-white
roofs and mysterious, twisting streets.
Strange instruments twang and tinkle
through the breathless night. Camels
grunt and squeal on their picket lines.
Heavy*, sensuous scents of the Orient fill
, your nostrils. The music is deliciously
free from irritating scratch or scrape.
Tear out the accompanying list, take it
to a Columbia Dealer and listen to any
or all of these New Process Columbia
Records. Note the smoothness and full
ness of tone. Note the beauty of ex
pression. Only in New Process Columbia
Records will you find this new and quiet
surface. The process is patented.
