CHICAGO SHEEP PRICES.
Market for I-'at Sheep It Very Active
and Prices Good.
The Chicago Livestock World says
of the sheep market In that city:
Prices were strong and trade active.
Buyers were all after a few to kill
today with the object of taking care
of week-end trade, and anything with
decent quality found a speedy move
ment toward the scales. What killers
wanted was bought up as fast as It
arrived. Invariably on the eve of a
holiday pyrotechnics cause no sup
prise, but the display was not spec
tacular. It was simply a good mar
ket at prices strong to a little higher.
Choice native lambs sold at $7.60
7.70 and that kind was badly want
ed. The $7.60 kind was popular with
buyers also. The Miller band of fed
westerns from Winona, Minn., made
$7.35 and were not finished at that.
The usual delegation of $6.50 7.25
native lambs Bhowed up.
Yearling stuff sold better. Choice
lamb-weight yearlings were quotable
to $6.25 and It was easy to dispose of
$6 "g 6.1 5 goods that would not have
made the price yesterday. Yearling
ewes at $5.10 looked strong. Year
lings have been bad sellers all week
and 'the little improvement was highly
gratifying.
It was estimated that In 1874 there

FULTON'S DEFENSE
SYS INCRIMINATING
LETTERS WERE STOLEN.
Accuses Interior Department of Incit
ing the Attack I'pon Him In Col
lier' Called Vpon President Roos
evelt, But Subject of Attack Not
Mentioned.
That Senator Fulton looks lightly
upon the charges made against him
hy Collier's Weekly, Is shown by the
following dispatch from Washington
giving the account of Fulton's con
versation concerning It
He places the blame for the attack
upon him on the Interior department
nd makes plain the enmity between
himself and Secretary Hitchcock,
The dispatch says:
When he left the White House to
day. Senator Fulton was stopped by
several newspaper men and asked
about Collier's story. He told them
substantially what was stated In those
dispatches yesterday, and Jokingly
remarked that It was time some In
vestigation was made to ascertain
what government agents were robbing
the malls or looting his committee
room In order to get possession of let
ters addressed to him.
He referred to two brief letters
quoted by Collier's, purporting to
come from Charles H. Carey and John
Hall, urging him to prevent Bristol's
confirmation. The senator said he
had had thorough search made
through his flies and no such letters
were found.
He declared one of two conclusions
was logical, presuming the letters had
been written: Either the letters were
abstracted from his files or else they
were taken from the mails before
reaching him. He had no knowledge
of having ever seen them. As a mat
ter of fact, the senator attaches no
Importance to the letters.
Speaking seriously, however, he
said that the interior department had
been unable to hurt him other than
l.y inspiring Collier's article, a story
which he characterized as a "bunch
of lies turned loose," and he added
that he understood this same manner
of warfare was to continue against
other senators and representatives,
who have failed to bow the knee to
pure and holy patriots who find good
only In themselves."
"I think," he continued, "that where
a man Is charged with corruption, the
charge thould be free from dirty
work."
Mr. Fulton called on the president
to Introduce Peter Loggle, of Coos
Eay. The president was cordial Inihls
greeting to the senator and gave no
indication that he had been Impressed
by the publication of Collier's story.
The subject was not mentioned, neith
er was the Bristol case.

1RY FARMIXG A SUCCESS.
South Dakota Professor Will Make

The advocates of dry farming have
won a grtat victory over the skepti
cism of the lrrlgatlohists and the east
ern fnrmers, and the dry farming
proposition must no longer be consid
ered as merely a scheme to sell land
on the great plains, for the success
being attained In eastern Colorado
and western Kansas and Nebraska
through haphazard methods has com
pelled the United States government
to recognize the possibilities lying
dormant in this great empire, says
the Chicago Livestock World".

for dry farming experiments and

basis with the hope of overcoming
the adverse agricultural conditions
prevailing In the seml-arld! belt.
Prof. Chilcott for the past 10 year
has been experimenting at the Brook
ings experiment station in dry farm
ing, and from his experience he be
lieves that the plains can be made
to sustain thousands of human beings
where hundreds of cattle now range.
and that comfortable farm homes and
prosperous visages and cities will dot
the landscape where an occasional
steer or coyote Is to be seen In 1906.
Prof. Chilcott says of the plan:
"We will undertake to conquer th
plains by cultural methods, by plant
sr-lectlon and by an Intelligent system
of rotation of crops. We wlir In this
way develop a system of cultivation
that will conserve the little moisture
that falls, develop plants strong in
drought resisting powers and maintain
the fertility of the soil at one and the
same time; and by attacking this prob
lorn of farming on the plains from the
three sides at once we should be able
ty accomplish definite results."
