The Sun Special Servh-eKANSAS CITY, Mo., May 30. Though some live stock markets were today and there was a general holiday at jtaekingLuuaea and in other trade Hues, fat cattle prices here to forty cents highwere twenty-fiver with the trade showing consider-abl- e enaji. Hogs were strung to ten cents higher with a close clearance, while sheep were steady and lauiba eenta lower. Killers were twenty-fiv- e in the yards early today and bought to l'at cattle freely at twenty-fiv- e forty cents higher prices. The activity in the trade was more than for some time past. (Some stem and heifers mixed sold at $8.50 and weighty steers up to $8.25. The bulk of the fed stecra at $7.25 to $8.00. Moderate runs are next week aa last weeks exjxK-tedecline and today's holiday at some markets checked the loading. Cows Slid heifers Were quoted fifteen to cents higher.' Veal calves twenty-fiv- e were steady to strung. With few country buyers here, trade in stuck and feeding rattle was dull with prices about the same aa last week's low twint. Thin cattle are selling at the lowest prices of the iast several years. Those who have grass or bought feed ran pick up some good bargains. HogJ were ten to fifteen vents higher than last week's close with trade active. All the offerings were cleaned up liefore noon. The top price was $7.75, and hulk of sales $7.25 to $7.05. Pigs sold at $8.00 to $8.75. The active demand today together with moderate receipts ex jiected later in the week has created the belief that the market ia in for a general rally. Lamlw were twenty-fiv- e eeuts lower and sheep about steady compared with the low close Inst week. S ring lambs sold up to $11.25, ewes $3.50 to $3.75 and clipped wetliera $400. A good clearance was reported. Some California aiming lambs brought $11.-2e 5. aa trade conditions warrant, thereby lessening the probaility of supply gluts or shortage. It also assists killers at other jniints who buy on the Chieago market- in where or when to place their orders for supplies and is of value to local killers and the stockyards company in planning labor needs for the ensuing day. RANGE ANIMALS FROM POISONOUS PLANTS PROTECT Estimates made in many localities indicate that the average loss of range animals as a result of feeding on imiaonous plants is as great as 3 to 5 iter rent, while in some range states the percentage is much higher, n Colorado it is estimated the losses amount to $1,900,000 annually, while shoepraisers in Wyoming have placed Ihcl? annual loss aa high am 14.fi per rent of their flocks. Specialists of the United States department of agriculture point nut that these losses o a large extent are of mature animals ready or nearly ready for market, and for the rearing of which arge sums have lieen spent. It is oqiecially inqsirtant for stockmen in range states to become farai-ia- r with Hiisonoua plants, partieu-arl- y in the spring when the stock crave green Laid and when in some rases jsiisonous plants offer the only green forage that is available.

Exjierience and schedule ratings will be on the systems fixed by that couneiL This was finally determined last Saturday at a meeting in Zion at which member! of the industrial commission and officers of the state insurance fund and agents for the companies operar-in- g in the Utah field were present. The national council has fixed an "expense loading of 38 per cent of the premiums. With a new rate manual arranged on a basis somewhat different from that which has been in effect in the past in this state, this will mean an advance of alxiut 3 per cent on the present premiums supposed to lie though not alwaya actually charged by the stock corporations. Merit rates of the past are extiqct. The new rates are expected to be announced within ninety days after July 1st in nearly all instances. The atate insurance fund will use ar differential in its rates, since its exjiense account ia not so large aa those of the stock companies. The state fund is not in the Utah field for profit.
