FRIDAY, JULY 11, 191$.
KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
STOCK MARKET REPORT
KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS,
July 8. Cattle, hog and sheep prices
were higher today. This is the first
time in a good many months past
when all classes of meat animals took
on higher prices at the same time.
The advance is due to increasing de
mand for meat. Cattle were up 25
cents, hogs up 16 cents to 25 cents to a
new high record position at $22.00,
and sheep were a big quarter higher.
All offerings cleared readily.
Today's Receipts
Today's receipts were light in all
departments. The decrease is attrib
uted to the rush of harvest sagging
prices late in June, and the belif that
the market has passed the low-price
level of the season. Cattle receipts
today were 7,500, or 2,500 less than
a week ago, 12,000 less than a year
ago. Hog receipts were 11,000, or
4,000 less than a week ago, and 1,500
larger than a year ago. Sheep 4,000
or 10,000 less than a week ago, and
500 larger than n year ago.
Urgent Call for Beef Cattle
There was an urgent call for beef
cattle, and with receipts below expec
tations prices weie a good quarter
higher, extremes up 35 cents. Six
carloads of Utah steers sold at $14.70,
and native steers sold mostly at $11.50
to $14.75. Cows and heifers advanced
as much as fat steers. Cows brought
$7.00 to $11.50 and heifers $8.00 to
i9Kn Vonrlinc stpprs and steers
and heifers mixed brought $10.50 to
$14.25. The general position of the
market is the first general advanco
that has occurred in the past two
months.
Stockers and Feeders
Trade in stockers and feeders was
active at 15 to 25 cents higher prices.
Small receipts limited demand to the
more urgent orders. It is the general
opinion that receipts of thin cattle will
show a material increase in the next
few weeks. Feeders are quoted at
$9.00 to $13.00, and stockers $8.50
to $12.00.
Hogs Still Going Up
Kansas City was the first Missouri
river market to record a $22 price
tna nnrl tlinf wnq nnirl todav bv
packers on a 15 to 25 cent higher
market than last week. The bulk of
the hogs brought $21.C0 to $21.90.
This is the period of the year when
light receipts usually prevail, the
prices arc expected to remain high.
Choice 190 to 200 pound hogs are the
kind bringing top prices, though the
price spread is unusually small for
this season of the year.
Sheep and Lambs Some Higher
Light receipts lifted sheep and
lamb prices 25 cents today. Trade
was active. Lambs arc quoted at
$14.50 to $16.50, clippc1 wethers $8.50
to $9.50, and ewes $7. to $8.25. Light
receipts keeps trading in thin lambs
to small proportions.

ANNOUNCEMENT
For a number of years the National
Tuberculosis Association has conduct
ed an annual national conference of
tuberculosis workers. This has been
productive of much good; but the dis
tances necessary to be traversed to
attend these conferences, the expense
involved, and the time consumed, have
combined to make it possible for only
a comparatively small number of
workers to attend. Within the last
year or two the United States has
been divided into several smaller "con
ferences," each of which has its own
annual meeting in addition to the big
national meeting.
Arizona belongs to the Southwest
em Conference. The meeting of this
conference for this year has already
been announced for September 23, 24,
and 25, but in order to secure some
exceptional speakers, the date has
been changed to October 1, 2, and 3.
The "place of meeting is Long Beach,
California.
Are you interested in the prcevntion
and cure of tuberculosis? You are
invited to attend this conference. If
you are not interested, you are urged
to attend so that you may become
familiar with the work and thus be
come interested in the great crusade.
A GOOD MATCH
"When I get a car, I want one which
will suit me."
"Then, my dear, you "had better get

HOLBROOK HAVING SEIGE
WITH CLAIM JUMPERS
Consideiablc excitement was started
among oil land claimants the first
of the week by the report that claim
jumpers weie extant'in the Holbiook
oil field. The leports were verified
Monday afteimoon by the filing of
about sixty gioup claims by Bod
Adams "relocating the government
land in township 15 north, Jange 19
cast. This land was briginally lo
cated in the spring of 1918 by vari
ous people, some of it having been
transferred to other parties. One of
the sections jumped belongs to the
Adamana Oil & Land Co., and is near
the well of that company now being
drilled. Another section belongs to
A. B. Baird, geologist, who claims that
the assessment woik for this year ha
ahcady been done on it.
A meeting was called at the court
house Monday evening under the
auspices of the Holbrook Chamber of
Mines and Oils to inquire into the
matter. After some discussion and
the facts obtainable were presented
to the meeting a committee was ap
pointed to wait on Bob Adams and
invite him to the meeting with a view
to obtaining an explanation, of his po
sition in the piemises.
A search of the town was made by
the committee and a report returned
that Mr. Adams could not be found.
More discussiomfollowed and some of
the members oY the chamber who had
talked to him lclativc to the matter
stated that Mr. Adams claimed that
the locations as originally made were
not legal, but to show that he was
willing to do the right thing he would
deed back part of each section jumped.
This proposition did not seem to sat
isfy the meeting as it was the con
census of opinion that if the original
locators were entitled to any of the
land they were entitled to all of it.

IS WORLD'S LARGEST PIG
Modestly answering to the name of
"The Great Wonder I Am," there
lives and flourishes one mile west of
Algona, Iowa, the biggest pig in the
world. Because the pig measures
seven feet from the end of its nose
to the end of its tail, and while as
it now weighs 1,100 pounds, this big
claim has never been disputed.
The owner, James Vipond, though
he bought the animal several years
ago for $725, has refused one offer of
$26,000 and says he could not allow
to sell it for $50,000.
In spite of the notoriety this pig
has attained, it still remains a good,
old-fashioned animal. It doesn't go
in for these new fanglcd things, such
H3 serums and baths and blue ribbons.
Its owner fondly believes it could have
all the blue ribbons going, but "The
Great Wonder I Am" does not care
for traveling and has never been ex
hibited at a single fair or show. But
there is hardly a day goes by that
some visitors do not call to see this
priceless treasure.
OVER THE BRITISHER'S HEAD
One thing which delighted Rear Ad
miral William S. Sims on his stay in
England in charge of the American
overseas fleet was the English sense
of humor. He illustrated it in this
story, which he told at a luncheon in
New York City recently. i
Admiral Sims was buying a shirt .'n
one of the exclusive Fleet Street
shops and the storekeeper must tell
of the other distinguished people
whom he served.
"There was the King of Spain, the
King of Greece, the King of Italy,
and the Sultan of Turkey, they all
bought shirts from .he."
"So," said the admiral in his Ameri
can way, "the sultan must be wearing
an asbestos shirt now?"
"Indeed," replied the shopkeeper,
leaning over the counter as one losing
out to a rival shirtmaker, "why should
he be wearing 'an asbestos shirt?"
KNEW THE STORY
A man and his wife visited the
Louvre in Paris.
"What struck you most at the Lou
vre?" asked one of his friends when
they returned home.
"Oh," replied the husband, "a pic
ture which represented Adam and Eve
with the apple and the serpent."
And his excellent wife chimed in:
"Yes, we found that very interest
ing, because, you see, we knew the
anecdote."
o
A PIECE OF STRATEGY
"Every spring when I have my an
nual house cleaning, Mr. Frisby is
called out of the city on important
business," remarked Mrs. Frisby. "I
consider that an odd coincidence."
"I Uon't," said Mrs. Jlbway.
"No?"
"It looks to me like a piece of
strategy."

We parted because we understood
each other only too well."

BRAZIL HELPS' SHEEP RAISERS
Brazil, which ranks second in goat
production and sixteenth in sheep, is
, taking steps to increase not only her
the purpose not only of settling the
meaf pblem of. Brazil, but to build
up a reat wool industry in that big
country
The latest statistics showed Brazil
had 7204,920 sheep. That is less than
0ne-tcnth of the number credited -to
Australia or to the Argentine and
about one-seventh of what the United
States possesses,
To improve the breed of sheep and
goats, particularly sheep, the govern
ment offers to pay an amount equal to
one-third the purchase cost and the
freight of rams and billy goats pur-
chased abroad for breeding purposes,
i the case of pure-bred animals there
js an additional premium of $15 a
head up to 1,000 head for each good
breeder
The government stipulates that the
breeders must have proper lands for
their flocks and herds, sheep dips,
adequate buildings, etc.
A sheep matures in eighteen months
while it takes three years for a horse
or a cow to attain its growth. With

LONDON TRIES MOTOR BUSES
The first lorry omnibus was seen
in London the other day. Fitted to
carry 27 persons, it was painted a
bright green, but with the war office
mark still to be seen on either side.
Seats had been arranged crosswise in
side the lorry, and strong stairs were
placed at the back. The conductor or
conductress will be accommodated at
the top of the steps.
In an interview. Manager Blaine of
the Underground Electric Railways
and the London General Omnibus Co.,
said arrangements had been made
which will materially quicken the im
provement in traffic facilities. Before
the war there was an average of
1 about 2.500 omnibuses in daily service
in the London district. There were
now actually in service 2,200, and
these were being added to daily,
among the latest acquisitions being
some chars-a-bancs recovered from
the stores at Kempton Paik.
Mr. Blaine added that the first
twenty-five of the motor lorries which
the government has agreed to supply
to the company, pending the construe-'
tion of more permanent vehicles, were
to be delivered at once. The lorries
would run on the same lines as ordi
nary omnibuses, and at the same fare.

THE MOTHER'S PART
' IN CAREFOR CHILD
For years we have been familiar
with the statement, "Just a children's
disease; all children must have them."
This is not true and the part of the
mother is to reduce the scourge of
children's diseases to the minimum.
Surely no one of today believes that
a child should be made to carry the
burden of deafness, weak lungs, poor
teeth, impaircd.eye-sight, etc., the at
tendant features of "childrens' dis
eases" throughout his life. Measles,
whooping cough, scarlet fever, diph
theria and the like leave one or sev
eral of these weaknesses in their
wake. The prevalence of these dis
eases every year, as shown by health
board reports proves conclusively that
mothers are not doing their part to
eliminate these scourges of childhood.
Epidemics of these diseases can
nearly always be prevented by the ap
plication of simple rules of health.
The Arizona Anti-Tuberculosis As
sociation will be glad to tell the good
mothers of Arizona where they can
secure reliable information through
these health rules to help them rear
their children to be well and strong.
A sound body and a clear mind are the
birthrieht of every child. It is the
mother's part to see to it that her
child is not deprived of his birthright.
Advice to June brides: Make him
take you on a wedding trip. It may
be the last one you'll ever take.
