Any Intention on the part of the
packer buyers to continue their ram-
page on the cattle price lint ot the
loca) market were frustrated today
no( enough fresli atuft coming to
giv them an opportunity xt show
their feelings I
ft was a case of lot well enough
alope and that is what they did
steady price at the caily weak de-
clines Bending the offering acalc-
warc) early ' -Around
450 head were roceived
against 1102 a week ago and 281 a
year ago But few loads of steers
were included and these were on
the short fed order selling around
17 For the week buyors have 'been
successful In forcing a 60c reduction
on steers making It hard for the
$8 mark to be reached and then on
only something in the real-finished
order '
Unchanged prices continued in the
butcher division a few good cows
and heifers selling around 10 with
the $G60®700 quotations out for
something real good Canners and
4 SO with exceptions around 15
cutters 22 25 and up bulls (350®
chives steudy with the 29 mark hard

A much healthier country demand
is necessary - to revive the etockcr

RETAILER AND PUBLIC
The time is at hand when retailers
must follow the example of manufac-
turers and others by taking the pub-
lic into their confidence in regard to
their problems Bays Alvin E Dodd
manager of the domestic distribution
department of the Chamber of Com-
merce of the United States He says
retailers have been entirely too back-
ward In telling the public how they
do the Job but the time hap come for
the building of a better understand-
ing between retailer and (he public
The public as well as Individuals ire
likely to be prejudiced against that
which they know least about and it
la partly for the purpose of bringing
about a better understanding of the
processes and problems of distribu-
tion that the Chamber of (lommerce
of the United States recently estab-
lished a Department of Domestic Dis-
tribution Pointing out that the public Is In-
tensely Interested In the difference in
er Mr Dood said that the recent per-
iod of high pricee hae brought anla-
sistant demand that the i public be
shown why the cost of an article gen-
erally speaking should be doubled or
trebleijbetween producer and con-
sumer He was speaking of mer-
chandise as a whole not of any spec-
ific lino And there are very good
reasons why this situation Is
uppermost In the mind of the
average person The cost of living
which according to government fi-
gures rose 124 percent from 1914 to
1920 according to the same figures
had fallen but sixteen per cent up to
the first of January and today prob-
ally equal! twenty per cent
The publlo thlnka profit have been
too large and suspects thahtoo many
people are getting them Therefore
It I eagerly trying to arrive at an
understanding ot distribution com-
parable at least to th general under-
standing which It haa ol production
Tha public can and should be told
the Inside problems with which -the
retailer la confronted In very much
the same manner that many manutac-
j turlng and public ntiltty concerns
I her followed

KILL GOPHERS IN
v WATERED PROJECTS
Pocket grophers burrowing In the
ditch banks and adjacent bottom
lands below the Elephant Butte Dam
In Dona Ana County N Mex cause
seepage damage estimated at $60006
a year Irrigation farmers last you
enlisted the directive assistance oi
the United Slates Department o
Agriculture Biological Survey and r
project of extermination was under-
taken In September noth traps and
poison baits wero used
One method was fer a workman to
patrol the banke of the main ditches
setting a string of 60 traps at Bhort
intervals On his return he would
find pocket gophers in two-thirds oi
them Ip doing this advantage wat
token of the rodents’ dislike foi
warmth and light Runways wen
found by means of a prod and a hole
wss broken under which the trap
was set The gopher would hasten
to the spot to repair tlio break and
find himself In tho trap Cubes of
etryohntne-mlxcd bait were dropped
Into similar holes on level ground
A aurvoy taken early this spring
by a rodent inspector of the Uiolo
gleal survey Indicated thut 95 per
cent of the pocket gophers had been
exterminated practhally eliminating
the $60000 annual damage Tho
total coat of tho farmers was about
$3 tOO Tits president of the Irriga
tlon company in a leltcr declared
tha extermination dibits to he tin
beat work ever done for the dis-
trict KEEPING THE DIPPING
VATS BUSY FOR TICKS
Thousands of cattle are being sent
splashing through the dipping vats
tills month In many sections of the
Southern States in what appears to
be one of the last attacks on the cat-
tle tick Two years ago the slogan
adopted by the United States Depart-
menftot Agriculture was “Dip that
Tick t® March"
Till year It la "Help Get
the last Tick" and the fight is being
waged particularly in the territory
recently released from quarantine
There le only one effective way of
getting rid of ticks— -that la to dip
the cattle Early dipping la urged by
the department specialist Two
ticks In March allowed to live and
prosper mean thousands at least in
June nd millions soon afterwards
specialists ay Seed ticks hatched
from the egge laid the previous fall
become active during the first warm
deys of spring If allowed to live
they suck cattle blood until they are
full crown
One female shortly after she haa
left tha egg stage becomes able to lay
from 3090- to 5060 eggs These
sue within a abort time hatch into
Med ticks and each female In her
lure lays jfrom 5000 to 1000 -eg
It le dearly evident therefore that
if the tloka can he killed in early
priitg hoate ot bloodsucking para-
site will be prevented from taking
10 enormous toll -later In th aeaeon
TRADE DEPRESSION
IN INDIA PUTS CRIMP
IN OUR EXPORTS
Demorillsed trade conditions pre-
vailing In India are directly reflocted
In the American business situation
the National Bank ot Commerce in
New York points out in the April
number ot Its magaslne Commerce
Monthly Until India the largest
consumer of cotton piece goods re-
covers her purchasing power little
Improvement can be expected In the
itdptesslon affecting the American
cojton crop and affiliated Industries
the bank saya
Huge Buying Power
Notwithstanding tha comparative
poverty of India's 215000000 inhab-
itants over 30 per cent of the total
output of British cotton textile mills
was sold to India prior to the war”
according to Commerce Monthly
''Under normal conditions British
mills take about one-fourth ot the
American cotton crop so that a re-
duction In the ability of India to pay
for cotton cloth is quickly reflected
in lower prices to the coton planters
In the southern states and a general
depression of business in that terri-
tory with Its attendant characteris-
tics of straightened credit reduced
volume of both wholesale and retail
trade falling off In railway traffic
ind earnings unemployment and
wage reductions
The Monsoon
“In normal times the purchasing
power of the Indian population Is de-
pendent upon the character of the
-noneoon or ralney season A favor-
ible monsoon generally insures good
-rops for tho following harvest with
he result that demand for Imported
manufactured goods is strong Un-
’ortunately at the present time In-
llau trade Is suffering from the com-
bined effects of an indifferent mon-
toon a very serious dislocation of
trade due to the situation of rupee
exchange and general unfavorable
business conditions throughout the
world which have seriously curtailed
he export market for Indian products
Hid Impaired the country’s ability to
lurchase In tha International mar-
kets The disturbajices in Russia
vnd the extreme depression In China
md Japan have added to the dlfft--ultles
of Indian exporters
Trade Balance Effect
"Whatover the course and Influence
if tho silver market Indian purchas-
ng power in the world's markets can-
not be restored until her normal tav-
irable trade balance Is restored
hrough an increased demand for In-
dian products Already the rising
ilde of Imports appears to have been
hecked but exports of Indian mer--handlse
for the period from April to
November 1920 decreased 15 per
-ent In value as compared with those
if the eorresponmng period of 1919
while tho decrease for the month of
November 19208 was 40 per cent
is compared with November 1919
"Jute and Jute products raw cot-
’on hemp rice wheat oil seeds

11a to establish a credit trade bal-

The apparent disposition ot Rus-
sia to renow trade with the outside
world nnd the fact that at least one of
the principle trading countries ot
Europe hus opened its doors to such
trade lends interest to some figures
compiled by the National City Bank
of New York as to Russia’s trade
past present and prospective While
no official trade figures ot the Soviet
government are available It is pos-
sible says a statement by the bank
to nt least get a glimpse as to what

to the end ot 1920 Official trade
'Iguros of a few ot the principle com-
mercial nations show their respective
records of trade with Russia down to
very late date Curiously -their tot-
