Cattle The week opens out with a rather
moderate run ot cattle, about 6,600 head,
fully 30 per cent less than a week ago, and
while there was a sprinkling of very decent
cornfed beeves on sale, the big bulk of the
supply consisted of western rangers. A
distinctly better tone pervaded the trade
for beef cattle, and anything good enough
to command competition sold a little better
than the close of last week, as high as
$13.76 being paid for1 the choice heavy
cornfeds, and fair to good grass beeves
briiiKing $8.80 10, 40.
The market for cows and heifers was
steady to strong as compared with the
close of last week, and demand was fairly
board for practically everything In this line.
Veal calves were a little stronger thsn last
week and so were bulls, stags, etc.
In stockers and feeders trade was decid
edly brisk and prices somewhat stronger
than toward the close of last week, fully 60
(8 75c better than they were a week ago.
Supplies were of moderate proportions and
the demand from the country has improved
greatly since last week's rains.

of the markets for teh day counting fifty
one cars, or about 13,600 head. Packers
broke the market another 35c the best
price they had paid up to noon being
$13.75.
The feeders trade was fully steady and
65ffi60 pound feeders found a pretty good
outlet around $14.25014.66, while two or
three droves of fat lambs were bought to
take back to the country at $14.00, bringing
25c or 30c more straight than the packers
were willing to give for the tops. Buyers
are quoting $14.75 or better on some choice
7fty-pound feeders. Several car? of good
feeding ewes sold around $7.10. Tops out of
the same string went to packers at $8.2.
looking nearly steady. In fact there was no
quotable change anywhere In fat sheep.
Yearlings and wethers old up to $10.00 to
packers and handier kinds would have
brought more.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Soaking Rains In Kansas and Other States
Send Corn Downward.
Chicago, Aug. 6. Soaking rains In Kan
sas and In parts of neighboring states, to
gether with a forecast of showers over the
corn belt as a whole, gave the price of
corn today a deetrled setback. Quotations
closed nervous. 1 to 54" net lower at
$1,164 to (1.16. December, and $1.13
to $1.18, May. Wheat finished unset
tled, 24 down at $2.25 September; oats
off 4 to 1 and provisions up 10 to ii
cents.
Benefits which the corn crop would re
ceive from the welcome moisture were
gauged by a Topeka dispatch saying the
rain there had been the first adequate
drenching In two months.
Bears were further encouraged by the
Missouri crop report Indicating a yield of
more than 200,000,000 bushels and falling
to confirm recent assertions of serious dam
age. The demand for corn which could
be used at once seemed a little less urgent
than has been the rule of late, although
distilling and other Interests were far from
having withdrawn from the market.
Increasing receipts acted as a weight on
the value of wheat. For the first time
this season, Kansas City and St. Louis ar
rivals totalled above 1,000,000 bushels. Be
sides, threshing returns from South Dakota
were said to show larger yields than ex
pected. Oats traders appeared to be growing more
and more Impressed with a belief that the
1917 oats crop had turned out a record
breaker. Many sections of Illinois and In
diana reported virtually a double crop.
Nearly all deliveries of provisions soared
to new high price records, In line with hogs
and cotton 'seed oil.

WOMEN PLAN COUNTY
SURVEYOF POWER
To Record Training, Ability and
Desires of the Women of
Douglas for War
Service.
Plans for the registration of women
for war services in Douglas county
nre discussed at a meeting of Omaha
Woman' club directors, called by the
president, Mrs. A. L. Fernald, acting"
county chairman lor the State Coun
cil of Defense, women's section.
Whether the Omaha Woman's club
would undertake the registration
work or what other women's organ
izations would be asked to co-operate
was a question to be determined.
"Our county organization must be
completed before actual registration
work can be started and workers at
the polls named," said Mrs. Fernald.
Mrs. Fernald does not believe the
work can be started before August
Ml The preliminary meeting today
was lud at the Y. M. C. A.
The call for registration is issued
by Mrs. A. V.. Sheldon of Lincoln,
chairman of that department, in the
followii.g letter to Mrs. Fernald:
"The Council -of National Defense
and its woman's committee asks for
the registration of the woman power
of the nation. The aim of this regis
tration is to record in definite form
the training, capacity and willingness
for service during the war of as many
women as can be reached throughout
the country.
Registration Voluntary.
'This registration is voluntary. It is
held so that every woman of 16 years
of age or over may be given an oppor
tunity to register for patriotic service.
This is the first registration of the
women of the nation ever called for
and should be reponded to enthusias
tically by every loyal American. Any
woman registered hitherto by ny
other organization is asked to register
under this national registration which
includes all women.
. "In Nebraska, the women will reg
ister at the regular polling placet in
each precinct on the day proclaimed
by Governor Neville for this purpose.
Hours of registration suggested ire
from 7 a. m. to 7 p. m.. but county
chairmen and councils will suggest
and advertise the hours best adapted
to their counties.
"The success of this registration de
pends mainly upon the careful selec
tion and organization of the precinct
registration boards. Wherever possi
ble the aid of automobiles in getting
women t the polls should be secured.
You should try hard to get every
woman in your county to register.
Effort should be mane to secure the
registration of Nebraska women tem
porarily out of the state on the day of
registration, lhe details 01 a plan
for aecuring this for your county are
left to you and your committee.
In some counties strong groups, of
precinct -registrars are selected from
the various elements, such as legis
lators and their wives, educators, ac
tive workef s in the Women's Christian
Temperance Union, Women's clubs,
suffrage, Daughters of the American
Revolution, Sons of the" "American
Revolution, Grand Army of the Re
public, Womens' Relief Corim, church
societies, fraternal organizations, so
cieties among foreign-born citizens,
etc. In some counties volunteer reg
istrars arc called for. It is desirable in
any case to have both men and worn-
en enlisted in this work. Make up
your boards as you think best. If you
wish volunteer registrars let it be
known through the press of your
county.
The registration department as
sumes that each county chairman to
gether with the other members of the
county councils know the available
workers in their county much better
than these workers are known to any
one outside. However, if you need
help from the state registration de
partment in this matter please let us
know at once.
Large Number of Workers.
"Care should be taken to secure in -
each precinct a large number of men
and women as registrars to assist in
filling out the carcy and to enter on
the back of these cards at the tjme of ;
registration the personal equipment "
estimate required by the card. '
.services of precinct registration
boards and other workers must be
donated, as are the services of county
and state chairmen and committees.
Enclosed you will find sample regis
tration card, provided they come in
time, and copy of inductions to regis
trars. Just as soon as a supply of
both comes from Washington you will
be sent a quantity sufncieiit to carry
on and complete the work of registra
tion in your county, lhe supply will
be limited, hence it is essential that
no copies be lost.
rlease give from week to week to
the press in your county clear and
definite details of the plan of registra
tion, and try, in every other way, to ,
make this plan simple and clear and '
popular. '
In each precinct as soon asregistra-
tion closes the cards should be ar
ranged according to printed instruc
tions and transmitted at once with the
names of the registration board to the
county chairman of woman's work.
The county chairman will arrange .
these precinct returns in a compact
package and hold them, preferably in
a safety vault, until the state commit
tee requests a summary of the same.
America has need of its loyal
women at jhis time. This work de
mands intelligent, immediate, per
sistent attention. Command the
registration department of the wom
en's committee for any assistance
which it can render you.
"Please let me hear, at least by Au
gust 10, how tlii s work is progressing
in your county, sending at the same
time, if you will, the names and ad-
dresses of your chief workers.
