Car Shortage Hurts
West Point Growers.
A load of choice Poland China hogs
was brought to the stock yards yester
day by G. E. Grunke of West Point,
who said there would have been more
shipping from that locality if it had
not been for the scarcity of cars.
‘‘Feeders are howling for cars to
ship their live stock to market,” said
Mr. Grunke "but the railroads have
been pretty slow in furnishing them
and for that reason there was very
little stock shipped from West Point
last week. There would be a large
number of cattle and hogs shipped
if we could only get the cars.”
The hogs Mr. Grunke brought in
yesterday averaged 300 pounds and
sold for $7.70 a hundred.
Lambs Fed on Mixture.
According to A. I.. Glasscock of
Tlnmath, Colo., who was on the local
market yesterday with a shipment of
461 head of lambs, averaging 88
pounds that he sold for $14.25 a hun
dred lambs in his section are pretty
well claned out.
“I have been feeding my lambs on
a ration of alfalfa, corn and beet pulp
and have noticed great gains in !
■weight. Some of the sheep raisers ,
*0*\n short of their own-raised feed and j
had to pay as high as 90 cents a :
bushel for corn and $15 a ton for
hay.”
A load of well finshed steers, good j
enough to bring $8.80 a hundred was
brought to I he stock yards yesterday
by Louis Kedura of Lehigh.
Mr. Kedura said he bought the
rattle on the local market last fall
as feeders and that in 140 days they
made a gain of 320 pounds on a i
ration of ground car corn and alfalfa.
There were 20 head of cattle brought
in by Mr. Kedura and they averaged
1,116 pounds.
Clover Hay for Calves.
Three loads of cattle were brought
to the loval stock yards yesterday,
two of . ^ilch were those of Otto
Evans and the other W. V. Mease,
both of Broken BoW.
Mr. Mea3e said he made a spe
cialty of feeding and raising young
calves for,market and liad found that
a ration of shelled corn and clover hay
was the best for fattening purposes.
A. shipment of three loads of well
finished Hereford steers was sold on
the local market yesterday by *V. L.
Japp of Kenxiard, who received the
highest price paid for cattle on the
market, the price being $5.10 a hun
dred.
"For the first time in my many
year* of cattle feeding I tried feeding
ground corn.” said Mr. Japp, "and I
have very gratifying results. The
gains in weight were probably no
larger than If I had fed shelled
ground corn, but it did not cost me
so much, as I made a good saving
hay."
Stock Being Shipped.
“On account of the high price of
corn, which is selling at 70 cents a i
bushel all the slock in my section is 1
l>eing shipped to market.” said A. A.
McKirn, who came to the stock yards
yesterday with G2 head of choice
lluroc Jersey hogs that averaged 300
pounds for which he received $7.70 a I
hundred, just a nickel below the top 1
price of the day.
Axel Ericson came in from Craig '
yesterday with a load of nlcely-fin- !
ished steers and he said the farmers i
in his section had shipped their live
stock out thik year or are fattening
rapidly.
There Is quite a scarcity of corn
and not nearly as much this year as
I her* was last,” said Mr. Ericson.
' Mott of our grain has been used in
the feed lots and very little has been
sold to elevators.”
9.000,000 Persons in
Germany Receive Aid
Rerlin, March 12.—</f>)—Nine mil
I.oti persons in Gemanv are receiving
government aid, according to a state- i
ment made hy l'ood Minister Luther ,
before the budget committre of th"!
rojehstag. Three million of these are j
without incomes worth mentioning,
the minister raid. v
According to Heer Luther, the fond
situation is much more serious than
prior to the war, not only on account
of the smaller production, but be
^.*use of lower earnings of the work
men. The milk supply Is especially
bad in large cities and prices are
prohibitively high for many per
sons.
Regarding the occupied area, the
food minister said the supplies of
flour and grain were sufficient for j
many weeks, snd that the. government i
bad taken steps to provide fats, j
bacon and lard.
Oil Gubhcr in Arkansas
Is Threatened hy Fire
Rldorado Ark.. March 12.—Fear Is
• xpressed that the big Burton gusher
in section 28, 20 miles to the north of
here, which blew connections off this
morning, will catch fire. The master
valve was torn from the casing by
the pressure and the derrick has been
blown from over the hole.
Jt Is hoped that the well will snnd j
Itself over of Its own accord. Unless
this occurs thousands of barrels of
oil will be wasted before engineers
can design means of capping the
gusher.
It Is feared the well will Ignite It
self by the friction caugeil from snnd
snd crude oil coming out of the ras
ing under such pressure.
