STEER MEN SEE CHANCE
NOW FOR GOOD RANGE
Europe Now Wants Whole Wheat In-
stead of Bran, Which Puts the Corn
Belt Feeder at Sea on Feeding.
•■Mae stockman of South Texas has the best
ctmn<?e now of fattening his cattle for market
on the range that be has had for three cr four
years and there Is a prospect that these will
be plenty of feed In the State to answer every
purpose. The local stock yards had only a few
hogs and cattle Friday. The rains overnight
Thursday were general in South Texas. "Devel-
opments in the mill feed Industry have put
the 6tockmen generally at sea," says the
Chicago Drovers Journal, "and to acquaint tbein
with the reasons for these changes the hood
Administration has issued an explanatory state-
ment. One of the foremost or these is that
the European nations which this country is
supplying with food prefer the whole grain to
the flour This deprives the mill feed industry
in this country of the by-products of the flour
mill and causes the shortage. Another reas »n
which is not mentioned is that the Government
is using large quantities of whpat by-products
to feed army horses. The statemejjt follows:
Most of the European countries have gathered
their harvests and are now grinding wheat. The
foreign demaud f<>r flour has been replaced by
a considerable demand for American wheat.
Shortage of aulmal feeds prevails among all
the western allies, which now prefer to pur-
chase wheat rather than to buy flour and mill
feed separately. Wheat cau be loaded very
rapidly aboard ships on the American seaboard
by mechanical conveyors. This operation con-
sumes much less time than loading the equival-
ent of wheat as flour and its by-products, and
saves space. A result of this developmeut is
a tPinporarily light product!.'ii of wheat mill
feeds in the United States. It should be recog-
nized. however, that even with normal produc-
tion of such feeds, the demand was expected
to exeped the supply, sines the schedule of
fair prices established for feed at the sug-
gestion of the agricultural advisory committee
has made it very cheap, much cheaper In fact
than it is worth compared with other feeds of
equal nutritive value.' While the period for
which these conditions are likely to prevail ia
rather indefinite, stockmen are encouraged to
believe that the shortage will be greatly re-
lieved when foreign orders for flour from this
country are again beirg filled. The reduced
output of wheat mill feeds, the statement points
out, is accompanied, fortunately, by an uu-
usually large production of certain coarse grain
products. Regulations provide for an extrac-
tion of barley of only 55 per cent of flour,
leaving nearly 45 per cent of the grain for
feed. Barley feed in itself is not a substitute
for bran, but needs to be mixed with other
light material, such as oat feed, to give bulk.
It Is also mentioned that there is an ample sup-
ply of oat by products. The modification or
the rule requiring tlyfc purchase of equal amounts
of substlrut- cereal! With wheat flour is ex-
pectpd to result in more mill feeds. Corn by-
products, though uncontrolled in price, are plen-
tiful.
CATTLE CLATTER
A three-inch rain was reported on the
Pryor Ranch at LaPryor Thursday night.
The owner had not received the details at
an early hour yesterday afternoon, but
through fear that perhaps he had received
a halt-inch more than was reported to him
he just marked everything up $3 per head
until he had advices that he was just
a bit too precipitate.
Beal Tumphrey reported an Inch ami a
half rain down on the Hums ranch and
"Jeems" Murrah, his partner, was Just a
little disappointed that he only got five
inches out on bis Devils Kiver ranch, but
the latter Is going to hang onto it with
the tenacity he exhibited when that man
run over him here on the street about
two months ago, because he wouldn't give
half the street.
Charley Corn Is in from his ranch at
Pavo. He reports a pretty fair rain on
the ranch Thursday, but had not received
any advice direct from the ranch up to
noon yesterday. He heard of plenty of
rain on both sidw of him alleged to have
fallen Thursday night and is taking things
easy until his man has time to size up
the situation. He knows he has had
some rain for it could not miss him when
It covered all the country between here
and El Paso.
There were some good rains Thursday
night to which the special attention of
The Express' readers Is called elsewhere
today. Reports indicate that beneficial
rains fell out west as far as Pumpville,
which insures plenty of grass for Theo-
dore Pyle. The country west to the Rio
Grande at Eagle Pass appears to have been
bathed also. The precipitation along the
line of San Antonio. Uvalde & Gulf was
a glorious realization of the hopes of the
cattlemen. There was considerable wire
trouble down on the International & Great
Northern Railway, but the reports indi
cate rain all the way down. North the
rains have been general and copious as
far as Georgetown. Very little news came
from the country east, but the farmers
and the stockmen are awaiting the sum-
mary of the news with great anticipation.
Grazing lands have increased in value 25
per cent and the season put into the
ground in the farming districts is a rea-
sonable guarantee that ttjere will be a
good growth of grass before frost comes.
J. W. Corn, the big Fort Worth feeder,
came in yesterday morning and agrees
with the South Texas cattleman that the
season for the last three months of the
year Is opening up , very auspiciously for
the cattlemen. He Is hopeful, very hope-
ful, of a good strong market for beef next
spring as he has collected an assortment
of bullocks with which he hopes to put
up, as Barnuin always did. the greatest
show on earth, when he empties his feed
lots next spring. 'The cotton crop is short
in Texas this year," said he, "but us rab-
bit eaters of Parker County hope to make
a respectable showing next spring." Mr.
Corn always makes a respectable showing
in the feed lots and his conversation Is
largely for the purpose of advising the
packer buyers that if they want any of
his cattle it is high time they were drop-
ping in at his headquarters aud making
their wants known.
Roy Lowe and his brother, Guy, are
both in the city. They knew it was* going
to rain so they dropped everything and
oame up to spend a few days at a time
when they knew there was no probability
of them being called back on account of
dry weather.
What's the use of fooling along with
the Liberty Loan? There is not a man
in San Antonio who has subscribed for
$1,000 worth of bonds or less who cannot
double his quota and that will enable the
city to go over the top. Let'* attend to
that before 10 o'clock this morning.
Neville Fleming is coming down town
regulary every day now. His foot which
was shot accidentally over a year ago is
not giving him any pain now and he was
the recipient of a host of good wishes yes-
terday when he came down walking on
both feet. He had not heard whether he
had rain out on his ranch Thursday night
and if be had not been constitutionally

OATS AND CORN GO HIGHER
DURING MARKET SESSION
General Evening Up of Trades in
Preparation for Double Holiday
Caues of Advance.
By Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Oct. 11.—General evening up of
trades so as to b« prepared for any surprise
during the double holiday ahead tended to
briug about advances today in the corn mar-
ket. Prices closed firm, *1 12ft<&1.13. <>ats
finished %c off to ftc up and provisions vary-
ing from 17c decline to a rise of 40c.
Word that the German answer to President
Wilson's note would be deferred until after
a conference of the sovereigns of' the German
federated Mates was an important factor in
curtailing the selling pressure which had forced
down the value of corn. Buying, however,
appeared to be restricted largely to shorts who
wished to collect profits and to avoid the
risks that would be involved If covering were
delayed until Monday.
Oats averaged higher for thei same reasons as
corn.
Lard and ribs advanced sharply notwith-
standing that buying was scattered. Pork
continued minus of support

For Sale—100 3-year-old steers, 400 2-
year-old steers, 80 steer yearlings; all iu

(Adv.)
The El Paso Live Stock Journal notes
that H. M. Stockbreaker was there last
week on his way to the University
pasture lands which he and Marcus
Snyder have leased about 50 miles north
of Sierra Blanca. They are moving J,5rto
steers, twos, threes aud fours there from
Colorado. He said the grass up there was
waving like a Kansas wheat field which
was no doubt intended as a notice to
prospective buyers that they would have
no steers to give away for spring delivery.
There wil be a new opportunity to cut
several stocks of hay In a couple of
weeks. The horse, the cow and the sheep
will need It after Christmas.
Give us a trial shipment; our service Is
the best to be had. Rbome-Farmer Com-
mission Company, Fort Worth. Tex. (Adv.)
Bert Mitchell Is bark from a trip out to
the Marfa country where be has been for
two weeks or more. There Is a report thj't
whenever Rufe Bynutn leaves the ranch and
comes home that calf ribs are not so
plentiful. This may account for Mr.
Mitchell's arrival for Cattle Clatter met
them both during the forenoon Friday and
received the admission that they came iu
together. They said that It had rained
for actually every step of the way between
here and there and that there was no
soldiering on the job either. Bert admitted
that he had bought two bunches of steers
out there but he refused to discuss the
details at least right now. He went on to
Fort Worth last night but The Express
has placed a man on his trail with in-
structions to turn in the number of head,
the ages, price, etc., as soon as he could
send them. He expects that Bert will tell
him sometime when he is talaing in bis
sleep. Neither one of them said a word
about why Arthur Hall did not return.
The latter with his long experience as live
stock agent is perhaps so bitterly opposed
to paying railroad fare that he has con-
cluded to stay out there until Fritz is
licked and the railroads take back their
properties again. This Is just a surmise
however.
Cattle loans. R. B. Pumphrey, Cattle-
men's Exchange, San Antonio. (Adv.)
Five thousand cattle and 2,000 calves was
the story from Fort Worth at the close
of business Thursday. Everybody up there
seems to be ashamed of the prices except
the buying forces. The top figure was
given as $0.25 on steers but why this dis-
position to throw up the barriers so the
public cannot learn a blessed thing about
what is going on. Whose steers was it
that sold at $9.25 and what particular
section shipped them? If South Texas is
furnishing the best steers now, and we
have a strong suspicion that it Is, why
cannot The Express get some of the details.
St. Louis and Oklahoma City are not
ashamed of the sales.
That the Geo. R. Barse Commission Co.
at Fort Worth, Texas, is the only known
commission house In existence today that
does not make loans on live stock or specu-
late through Its employes or others, either
In the country or on the yards; that it
derives its revenue from the commissions
earned by selling shipments consigned to
it and purchases made on orders. The
Record also contains the statement that
Barse considers it a privilege to adver-
tise this fact. This statement Is worth
vour consideration in determining the
house you are to 6hlp to, If you want a
strictly commission bouse. (Adv.)
The country weeklies have some news
yet that is interesting, even If they cannot
prize the operators in live stock loose from
prices. The Fort Stockton Pioneer says:
"Burnie Llgon sold and delivered to R. H.
Price last week twenty-three head of steer
yearlings. • • • R. H. Hale shipped in
from Maryneal Wednesday 182 head of cat-
tle, which he will pasture near here. • • •
Moore Bros, and Tyron Lewis finished
shearing their flocks the first of the week.
They report their fall clip to be three and
one-half pounds per bead, • • • George
Hays, who has been pasturing his cattle
near here, shipped Thursday to Sierra
Blanca nineteen cars of cows and steers,
near which place they will be pastured
this winter. • • • The following ship-
ments of stock cattle were received this
week from Mertzon and will be pastured
near Fort Stockton this winter: Mr. Davis,
fifteen cars; Ed Jones, six cars; John Hill,
eight cars. * • • George Sachse closed
a deal last week with T. M. Pyle, which
will result in Mr. Sachse delivering to Mr.
Pyle about the 15th of October 175 2-year-
old steers. Consideration private. • • •
The C. I. and F. Sheep and Wool Com-
pany of Carlsbad, N. M., sold last week to
A. Nelman 300 head of ewes, also 300 head
to Dave Harris. Delivery on these deals
will be made from Rankin, Texas, between
the 10th and 12th of October."
With prophetic vision. Walter Neff of the
Kansas City Drovers' Telegram said Tues-
day: "If you could stand on the street
corner by the royal palace in Berlin, and
up street oil the autumn zephyrs came the
melodious notes of the '8tar-Spangled
Banner,' and presently you saw 'wav
down street a never-ending column o'f
Yanks and they were flushed with victory
as they marched past you, and the sun
was shining and the birds singing and
•11 the holy angels of heaven seemed flit,
ting above your head. oh. bov. wouldn't
It be a grand and glorious feelin'?"
There doesn't seem to be any best cream*
•ry butter now. When the Government
took over Ed Lasater's output down at
Falfurrias the other creameries at once
moved the price up so the retailer would
have an excuse for charging 70 cents a
pound.
The Indianapolis Star pays this tribute
to the American riflemen: "In reports
coining from various sources from the
front in France one fact stands out clearly
among all others, aud, incidentally, Is oft-
enest mentioned by military authorities
and war correspondents who are not
Americans. These seem to be unable to
overcome their surprise at the accuracy
with which the American Infantryman
fires his rifle. The American accepta
American accuracy iu rifle fire very much
as a matter of course, but our allies con-
tinue to marvel. And again and again the
reports have indicated that, it was the
deadly certainty of our shooting which
brought success to the American infantry
both iu offensive and defensive campaigns.
The Germans themselves have professed
amazement that soldiers, however long and
thoroughly they may be trained, can mas-
ter sufficient calmness and steadiness in
the heat and fury of battle to shoot with
the precision which characterizes the
American rifle fire. 'Why,' exclaimed one
French general, we are "told, 'no matter
how hard they are pressed or are press-
ing, these Americans actually take definite
aud deliberate aim.' The enemy has found
this out to Its cost. Wave after wave of
its most dependable shock troops has been
broken in attack by the infantry rifle fire."
Eels, according to the fish dealers, are
now coming more generally Into public
favor as a fish diet. They are true fishes,
according to John Treadwell Nlcbolls,
assistant curator of the Department of
Ichthyology of the American Museum of
Natural History. The presence of eels In
land-locked ponds far removed from the sea
makes it difficult to believe that they have
not originated in fresh water. It is, how-
ever, quite impossible that they should
do so, for at least one obvious reason--
the peculiar young or larvae, adapted to
life near the surface of the open ocean,
could not survive elsewhere. Eels com-
monly work their way up into the very
smallest streams and travel as easily, it
seems, through mud as they would through
water. They are even said at times to be
met with journeying over land through wet
grass; and the probabilities are that they
do this not infrequently at night, as they
are generally very active at that time. Be-
fore being cooked eels have to be skinned.
The skin is exceedingly tough, and eel
skins are often used for purposes where
rope wears out too quickly. The classic
wav to cook eels is to cut them In length
and fry In butter. Many persons find them
exceedingly delicious. But the meat is very
for some persons. Comparatively few per-
sons are familiar with eel stew. For this
the eel should be cut into short lengths,
as for frying, boiled until soft, parsley,
pepper, salt and butter to taste added,
and the gravy thickened with either milk
or flour."
The dairy cow will soon be as familiar
in New Mexico as the beef bred animal.
Fifty boys and girls from the stock farm-
ers' homes in Union County, that State,
have just been provided with a Holsteln
calf each, at a cost of $25 y«- calf. This
is a step in the way of lannching farm
dairying In what has heretofore been rec-
ognized as the leading beef cattle country
in the West. Forage crops can be success-
fully raised there and these make excellent
feed for cows.
Grass cattle will be worth the money
this fall, but the price is not back yet to
the high level of last July, when they sold
in Kansas CUy at $15.50. The price needs
boosting about $3.10 per cwt.

FORT WORTH, Tes.. Oct 11.—A better tone
prevailed in the cattle division than for any
time in the week with the exception of the calf
rection. Steers 6old steady to a good demand,
butcher cows were a quarter higher and can-
ners looked to be 10 to 15 cent* higher. Bulls
aud heifers were steady with considerable call
for them, calves were weak following a 50-cent
decline in afternoon of Thursday, and stockers
were steady with the exception of etocker
calves.
In the hog Qlvlsion values were again low-
ered to the emount of a quarter, while pigs
were steady at the recent decline.
Sheep were slow sellers, and goats about
steady for stacker purposes.
Eastern markets coutinue to be almost de-
moralized. Labor is not available for the
handling of the meat supplies and stock ac-
cumulating.
The Spanish influenza has taken toll of the
population until the demand for all classes of
meat has shrunken to small proportions. With
depression in the Eastern meat trade and pro-
visions going off at the Chicago market, the
outlook is not promising for a speedy recovery
in the meat trade, and of any advances in
cattle and hogs on foot.
The really desirable cattJe failed to put in
an appearance on the Friday market. Some
fairly good steers were offtred, and In default
of something better buyers paid good, steady

ing to good advantage on a 10 to 15-cent higher
busls. Bulls were fully steady.
Thursday after demoralization seized upon the
calf trade, and 50 cents was taken off the al-
ready lowered market. The Friday run of
calves was about 2,000 bead, and these felt
the effects of the decline of the late Thurs-
day murket, trading beiug weak to a shade
lower.
Friday is usually an nnlucky day In the
stocker trade, and therefore shipments of cattle
to go back to the country were far from lib-
eral. Trade was not brisk, but offerings sold
generally steady. Calves excepted.
With around 1,500 hogs at command, the
market failed to get a start until around 11
o'clock, and then looked to be a quarter below
the late sales of the day before. Late Thurs-
day several loads of Oklahoma hogs sold gen-
erally at $18.15. The best hogs of Friday were
considerably better than the best of the Thurs-
day run, yet the price was $18. Bulk hogs
sold at $10.50 to $17.00. Pigs were steady at
the week's heavy decline.
Two decks of sheep and one deck of goats
arrived for the Friday disposal and neither sold
early. One deck of holdover goats sold for
stockers at $5. The market was steady at the
week's decline.

BEARS ROUTED IN ATTEMPTED
RUN AGAINST STOCK MARKET
Sweeping Upward Movement in Rail
Prices Causes Hurried Covering
by Short Interests.
By Associated Prepg.
NEW YOIiK, Oct 11.—Regardless of the ap-
proaching holiday, trading in stocks today was
attended by uuubual activity and many sub-
stantial gains.
Speculative interest continued to center in
special issues including shipping, oils, motors
and many war shares recently under severe
pressure.
Later the buvlng encompassed coppers, tobac-
cos. food shares aud utilities.
Bears attempted a drive against the market
at midday, with United States Steel as their
chief objective. That stock rallied easily, hew-
ever, on a sweeping upward movement in rails
which registered numerous gross advances oi
2 to almost 5 points, Canadian Pacific's rapid
rise causing hurried covering of shorts.
United States Steel fluctuated between i05M»
and 108, its final quotation of 107^^ repre-
senting a net gaiu of a large fraction. Kin-
dred shares <■loswi at gains of 1(7£'2 points.
Marine Preferred yielded all a point of its
sdvance and Texas Company aud Mexican
Petroleum forfeited much of tieir 3ftf4-poLnt
galuH.
Bonds were strong in the main with an ex-
tension of dealings in Liberty issues. United
States old fours declined Vi per cent on
call.

SHARP RALLY TAKES PUCE
IN THE COTTON TRADING
Covering and Trade Buying Bring
About Upturn Which Is Not
Fully Maintained.
By Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Oct. 11.—Covering and trade
buying caused sharp rallies In the cotton market
today, but advances were not fully maintained
with the close barely steady, at a net gain 6t
17 to 40 points.
The early advance met llqeldation, local pres-
sure aud scattered Southern selling under which
prices soon turned easier. The selling was en-
couraged by continued lavorable weather, But
trade interests were good buyers on a scale
town. Rallies followed on covering for over
the week end, accompanied by reports of di-
minishing pressure from the South and an
improving trade demand around the 80-cent
level. For a time the market bhowed con-
siderable firmness. The demand then sub-
sided and there were reactions later under
rallzlug.
A go<>d part of the buying was attributed
to covering for over the two days' adjourn-
ment, at, all three of the futures markets will
be closed from toulght until Monday morning.
French, Italian and Japanese interests are said
to have been among the recent buyers, and
Liverpool selling here is believed to have been
against purchases of spots in the South.

NEW ORLEANS. La., Oct. 11.—Comparative-
ly small price changes were recorded in cot-
ton today, althougn the market moved both
below and shove the level of yesterday's close.
The double holidays following the close tonight
made for quiet trading and business was all
the more restricted because of the uncertain-
ties in the political situation. The net change
for the session was Insignificant, a rise of
1(qi5 points.
There was considerable evenlng up on both
sides during the entire session, but the long
side was favored by the belief that the holi-
days were likely to see events of grest politi-
cal importauc which would react fsvorably on
values next week.

Weekly Cotton Review.
By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—Reports of increased
Southern offerings and improving crop prospects
were accompanied by further declines in the cot-
ton msrket during the earlier part of last week.
As prices worked below the SO-oent level, which
is the bests for present prices In the goods
market, trade buying increased and there were
rallies toward the end of the week on this
support and oorsring. The Souther# bsdf*
selling waa also leu to evidence. The selling
earlier la the week waa prompted by the tood
weather in tb« ftonth. This baa fagoted the
talk of a rotable eatlmate of around 13,600,000 ^

bales, excluding linters, and local beara have
been comparing this with predictions that
ueither exports nor domestic cousumptiou would
exceed lust season's. It seemed also that talk
of improving peace prospects was taken more
bearishly than otherwise on the ground that
even if peace should come unexpectedly soon,
the distribution of cotton would remain on a
war basis for some months.
Reports from the goods trade bars indicated
increased curtailment of mill production because
of the spread of the Spanish lnfluensa. This
may not show in the figtures of the Cansns
Bureau next Monday, but it is expected the
report will show little, If any. Increase over
last year's figures.
Part of the buying on the declines has been
attributed to the French commission, Italian
and Japanese interests, and persistent Liver-
pool selling here has been explained on the
ground of hedging spot purchases in the South.
