    A LETTER FROM WASHINGTON
J. W. Miller Writes an Interesting
Letter From Tacoma
Tacoma, WhhIi., May 1 -, H'.i,
The Falls City Tribune,
Falls City, Nebraska,
My Dear Mr. Kill tor:
I am an old Falla City boy, bav
ng spent my early years (very
«r!y at Uid Archer, two and one
imlf miles northeast of Falls City,
and written so ably about by Judge
Reavis, whom I remember so well
from my earliest recollections. I
ioj a cousin of W, II. Maddox,
anil of the Maddox girls. May,
P race and Mrs, J. W. Powell, and
a schoolmate of Mrs. T. J. (list
and P, I). Reavis in the Fighties
at York Hiih much for a personal
introduction,
Ah you see by my letter head, I
am a resident of Tacoma, the
joeen City of the Pacific Coast.
No city has more of the beautiful
than has Tacoma; the largest grain
elevators in the world. You should
see the electric loaders loading
wheat, sacks falling into the hold
of the big ships like showers fall
ing from the clouds. The largest
ere smelter in the world, where
more copper, silver and gold ore
as-melted than any other place in
ihe world, besides the quantities
f Pad, bismuth and other ores
which go through lire. The lar
gest sawmill iu the world, the Sta,
.Paul and Tacoma Mill I could
.H i. Veil you the kinds of material
made. The daily output is more
than half a million feet per day.
This would make several train
loads on tin level Nebraska prai
ries.
In accord with the testimony of
xperts, Tacoma has the moat beau
tiful, convenient, and up-to-date
!Jigh School building in America:
a harbor large enough for all the
'attleahipa in the world, then add
the merchantmen of many nations
sr.d our harbor would not be
crowded.
Flowers in profusion all the
year; a climate that eannot be ex
iled the year through, Hummers
not hot, winters not cold, fruit
- rywhere, and in quantity and
i ality not surpassed. The water
s ■' the sweetest and softest, seen
ry the grandest, on every side
: ipped off by the highest and most
beautiful mountains, Mount Ta
oma, at our door.

MARKET LETTER
From Our Regular Kansas Citj
Stock Yard Correspondent
i Kansas City Stock Varda, .May 2 1
1909—Total supply of cattle last wet 1
! cattle was liberal here 11,800 hdad bu
about 6,000 stock cattle enroute frou
the Panhandle In Texas to South Da
kola were Included Deducting them
thin cattle, which were not on tin
market:, the total was normal as
compared with recent weeks. Huy
era succeeded In reducing the prices
on killing grades 10 to to 25 cents
last week, on the claim ihat retail
price of meat prevents expansion ot
consumption. Dull beef markets in
Kngland have also curtailed export
demand, which put another weapon
( line was moderate, and not at all
discouraging to salesmen, who be
lieve that the price breaks between
now and the advent of large num
bers of grass cattle at the markets
will be of short duration, as the
whole cattle situation is braced by an
undercurrent of strength in the eon
An Evidence of Progress.
The farmer today rightly demands
as much us the city man and is in
sisting more und more that the goods
he buys, as well as bis mail, be de
livered right to his door, just as
the city man does. Therefore, we
now have In the country the meat
wagon, the grocery wagon, the tea
and coffee wagon and the medicine
wagon. These institutions for the
convenience of the farmer have come
to stay,
sumptive demand. The run today is
7,000 head here, several thousand
less than on recent Mondays, which
confirms predictions of dealers that
runs will be light for a few weeks.
Anxiety of owners to finish planting
corn is keeping some cattle off the
market this week. Prices are strong
to 10 higher today, top steers at $6.80
almost as high as the best here last
week, at $6.85, except a small lot
of fancy yearlings here last Thurs
day at $7.00. I till kot' steers sell at
$5.80 lo $6.65, cows $3.25 lo $5.7->.
heifers 4. lo 6.50, and bulls $3.50
to $5.25, calves $4.00 to $6.75, Stock
ers $4.00 to $5.40, feeders $5.00 to
5.85.
Hogs prices declined It) to 15 cents
last week, under the influence of
lidcral marketing at all points, and
here SO.OOOhead for tIn- week Tln>
run today is 10,000 head , market
closing strong to 5 higher, top is
$7.25, Light hogs have been more
freely offered during the past few
weeks and the percentage of well
finished hogs is decreasing.
Sheep and lambs had a bad week
but it was mainly because of lack of
quality in the offerings, Supl.ving
today is 12,000 head, market 10 to 1 ■">
higher, some wooled lambs at $8.96
anil $9.00, equal to prices a week
ago. Spring lambs at$8.25 today and
best, clipped lambs arc worth around
$8.00, wethers $0.25 to $5.85. Several
strings of Texas muttons sold today
at $5.25, and Arizona wethers at $9.no
Fat goats bring 3,60 to $3.90, brush
era $3.25 to $3.75.
.1. A. lllt'K ART,
Live Stock Correspondent.
The sale of domestic medicines
stock medicines, flavoring extracts,
spices, toilet articles, etc. through
the medium of salesmen travelling
with wagon and leant has grown to
enormous proportions in the last ten
years Keen competition for the far
mers' trade has caused a continuous
improvement in the goods handled
by these wagons and farmers gener
ally recognize that no better goods
can be secured by them from any
source.
Some of tin1 medicine salesmen
practically leave the goods with the
customers on trial for which no more
is asked unless the buyer is satis
fied This plan naturally appeals and
it is probably true that every farmer
i buys at least a part of his supplies
from the medicine wagons.
The Pure Food Laws, both Nat
ional and State, seem to have driven
the old peddler of fake nostrums al
most entirely out of the field and it
is extremely doubtful if the old time
long haired fakir could do enough
business io keep body and soul to
gether in any farming community to
day. The farmer demands the best
goods because he has the money to
pay for them and the medicine wagon
salesmen are shrewd enough to rea
lize the fact.
