Union Stock Yards, South Omaha,
Nobraska, September 19, 1916. Tha
week opened with the heaviest run of
cattle so far this year, a total of 6(72
loads, about 17,500 head. Most of the
receipts consisted largely of western
range cattle, and there were fewer
corn fed beeves here than for several
days. Supplies of cows and heifers
were not large, and with a tsVrably
broad demand from both packers and
outside butchers, the market was ac
tive and prices were In about the
same notches as toward the latter
part of last week.
Quotations on cattle: Good to
choice beeves, $10 00fM0.85; fair to
good beeves, $9.0009.75; common to
fair beeves, $6.758.75; good to choice
heifers, $8 7R5T7.25; good to choice
cows, $6.50(3)7.00! fair to good
cows, $5.85(6.40; canners and cut
ters, $4.50 5.75; veal calves, $8,000
11.00; bologna bulls, $5.2505.85; bef
bulls, $6.0007.00.
Both packers and shippers started
out buying their hogs at prices that
were steady to In spots 10c higher.
Two of the psckers left the most of
their orders to be filled on the late
trade, and when the other buyers got
through they started In to repeat Sat
urday's stunt of lowering prices on
the finish. Sellers, however, held on
to most of their hogs and succeeded In
cashing them at figures that were al
most as good as early prices. Bulk of
the hogs sold at $10.60010.70, and a
sprinkling of the best kinds aa high
as $10.90, while the tops reached
$11.00.
The largest sheep and lamb run of
the year to date was on hand Monday,
when 173 cara, or about 47,000 head
were reported In. Owing to the large
receipts a decline In fat lambs was
Inevitable, although about 65 of the
offerings were feeders, and many of
the sellers priced their tops around a
dime lower from the start This did
not tempt buyers, however, and np to
noon not a load of killer lambs had
been canned. Quite a few strings of
the best feeding lambs sold In good
season, many bands going at $10,260
10.40.
