MARKET LETTER
From Our Regular Kansas City
Stock Yards Correspondent
Kansas City Stock yards,Oct. 12
l'.H)H—Cal tie receipts last week
here amounted to 07,50<> head, in
cluding 14,000 calves. This was
the greatesr number of cattle ever
received here in a single week,
and also established a new record
on number of cattle and calves
combined received for one week.
The market declided 10 to 20e
early in the week, but held steady
after Tuesday, good grades of
westerns showing some strength
the last of the week. Stockers
and feeders sold steady at 25 els
lower according to quality, trade
greatest of the season in country
grades, purchases by country buy
ers ltiUO car loads for the week.
Receipts toc'ay are 28,< 00 head, a
liberal run, but 10,000 head less
than receipts n week ago. Good
runs are expected the balance of
the week, attracted by tbe cattle
show which opens here today.
The market here is strong to ten
cents higher. Some choice steers
from the Harbuugh feed lots in
Nebraska, received a bid of $8.00
early today, highest price this
fall. Packers continue their lib
eral buying, and take a portion of
tue steers classed as feeders. The
grass killing westerns bring $3.<50
to $5.2o; grass cows $2.75 to $3.75
calves $3.50 to $7.00; feeders $3.50
to $4.80.
Hog receipts last week were
1)1,000 head here, as compared
with 43,000 same week a year ago,
which big increase in receipts, iu
connection with the increase of
HO per cent in receipts of hogs in
September, furnishes ample
grounds for the steady decline iu
prices, commou at all markets.
The market closed last week with
a net loss of 50 cents for the week,
and prices are 5 to 15 lower today,
run 13,000 head. Top today $0.30
Sheep and lambs weakened after
Tuesday, and closed 10 to 15 cents

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.
“Does your wife understand how
to train a cook so that she will be
worth keeping?” asked the gloomy
optimist.
“My wife,” replied the cheerful
pessimist, “knows enough to let a
cook have her own way so that she
will think we are worth staying
with.”
