New A'ork, N. Y., Deo. 30.—Quo-
tations of stocks turned downward
^ -harply during the early trading to-
day. on a eontlnuanee of the bear
selling which affected prices on Sat-
urday. Traders had few facts lo
work on, In the way of new develop-
ments. Selling was concentrated
largely on the three leading Issues—
Heading, Union Pacific and Steel—
each of which was depressed a point,
but losses among most of the other
prominent stocks were fractional.
There was Some evidence of scat-
tered liquidation among minor In-
dustrial and high priced investments.
American Express sold down to 160,
the lowest price for 12 years. Cop-
per stocks were strengthened by the
announcement of large sales of met-
al. The principal selling agencies
were said to have adhered to the
price of 17$lc, which has been quot-
ed for some time. General electric
and Westinghouse were strong.
Despite Expectations of tight money
at the close of the year, call loans
were easier than at the end of last
week. Cali money opened at six per
cent and although seven per cent was
quoted later, the rate fell off sharp-
ly before the end of the day. vKe-
newals were made at sven per tent
as comparid with 12 per cent on
Friday. ,
There was no breadth to the bond
market. Prices were irregular. Tot-
al sales, par value *1,731,000.

RUSSIAN W A R NEWS CAUSES
THE GRAIN TO BULGE
ispeeiai to The Times.
Fort Worth, Tex.. Dec. 30.—Dis-
cussing the shortage df cattle fit for
beef and the means for replenish-
ing the supply. Prof. W. j. Kennedy
of tha Iowa Agricultural college
takes the position that each farmer
must raise and feed a few cattle. The
big ranches ure going, and many of
them have' gone. We can no longer
look to* them for supplies of feeder
cattle. The man that we must look
to is the stock farmer with 50 to 100
cattle, and the regular farmer with
five to ten cattle, fed and finished
ready for market. The situation Is
the same ip Texas as in the corn
belt states, and the remedy is the
same. Prof. Kennedy says:
“Why are beefstakes and beef cat-
tle so high in price as compared to
six, ten or fifteen years ago? Will
25c oats and 35c corn bring the
price of beef down to its former
level? These are some of the ques-
tions which people in every ua'k of
life arc asking at the pretuit time.
Heavy Dcrmisr,
“In a measure, at least, ibis ,;a"S-
tion may be answered by tlie appli-
cation of Hie law of supple and de-
mand. During the last twelve years,
our population has increase j about
25 per cent while our supply of beef
cattle has decreased over 10 per edit.
These figures would not indicate any
very immediate relief to the consum-
er. The end is not yet.
Next year and each succeeding
year for at least three years will see
a much shorter supply of heel cattle
than at the present time. This will
be due to the fact that tie present
high prices for beef cattle arc caus-
ing thousands upon thousands of
cows and heifers to be sent to the
slaughter house, which under ordin-
ary circumstances would and should
be retained for breeding purposes.
It is a case of killing the goose that
laid the golden egg.
Ranges IMsiippcmlog.
“The ranges of the Northwest, the
West and Southwest, which in the
past constituted the greatest loetl-r
cattle producing country in the
world, have seen their best clot's.
They are carrying today just about
one-half the number of cattle they
carried eight, ten or fifteen years
ago. Irrigation, dry land farming,
and the more general Introduction of
sheep, have driven a Inrg.' number of j
>hr range cattlemen on: of business. | Two Lots Hem
Even the corn bell states have fal-
len off from 25 to 50 t.-t cent in betf
Celtic during the past t o years.
'The more (Jifficui- problem which
t.qw confronts the catth feeder is
the source of his supply of feeders.
In former years the range- produced
an uuundance of feeder mine This
supply has fallen off vet . rapidly in
recent years. This means that the
“cattle feeder” n.s we kn -tv him fn
the past, must in a men t ire giv e way
to the ‘beef producer’.”
soon out in Kansas, and with freight-
ers and cowboys I found my way to
the far west. Finally 1 drifted to Tex-
as, where I have been ever since. For
t7 years no one over hard from me.
Then I returned, some time after-
wards, and my surprise the shot l
gave the negro man hardly went
through tho skin, as It was small
shot. The joke was a little stale by
that time, but I guess I made more
money in the cattle business on the
plains of Texas than I would have
made in my native home country in
Missouri."
Lovelatiy still is in the cattle bus-
iness in Lubbock county. He owns
2,500 acres of land. He is the own-
dr of the largest steer in the United
States, a Hereford, that he has on tho
Cudahy farm near Belton. Mo.,
which he intends to keep till ho

now weighs over 3.000 pound*

from
to the
Associated Press Dispatch,
Chicago, Dec. 30.-—Statements that
Russia had resumed the masting of
troop** On her southwestern frontier
gave the wheat market today a brisk
upturn. The close K was nervous ot
figures varying from a shade decline
to c net gain. *
More than a million bushels of
wheat were bought in a brief time by
bullish spectators as a result of the
warlike advices about Russia, and
because of assertions that Roumania
had begun again to mobilize. The re
suiting advance carried prices
the low point of the session
top.
Increased estimates of the Argen-
tine ports surplus hail previously
wiped out an early gain which the
wheat market had scored In cousc-
(juomo of light world shipments. A
bulge in the visible supply total was
also tending to give the bears advan-
tage until sentiment had a quick
change on account of the war news.
Moisture over the winter wheat
belt prevented the July option from
sharing in the general advance. May,
the lending month, ranged from 5Mc
to 91V* to) %. with the last sales ko
net higher at 9I V
Wet weithor put back beef into
the corn market, despite increasing
stocks. May closed at 481$c. Gusli
grades were steady.
Oats gave evidence of congestion j
in the ecember deliver). May elosii
at 32%.
In the provision trade, packers
were credited with absorbing nearby
offerings. At the close prices were
5c to 17 *i»c net higher except for
nearby deliveries of lard, which wuro
off 2c to 5 cents.
