CATTLE There was such A small run ot
cattle here thia morning .that a lair teat
of tha market was hardly mads.. All the
buyers though wanted a tew caiue ana as
a result the market was active and fully
steady on all grades, an early olearano
rielnar mane.
Thera wars a faw loads of eornfed ateerB
on sale and they could safely be quoted
steady to strong with yesterday or 264400
higher than a week ago. ins receipts nave
been so light sll the week that psckers
have had a hard tim to get enough to
fill their immediate- orders and as a result
salesmen have been able to force prlcea
up to quite a.n, extent. The improvement
has been general on all grades, tha short
frda advancing as well as the good cattle.
As high aa K.9S was paid today for eoms
cattle of pretty good quality. A well tin-'
Ished bunch would not bring considerably
over $5.00.
The cow market was very uneven mis
rhornlns- aa there wera only a few on sale
and buyers all wanted them. It would be
sara to quote tne mamec tuny stesay on
tha average or all of 16'o2&c higher than a
week ago. The greatest advance as noted
yesterday has been on ths grades selling
Around 12.60. Choice cattle are also higher
and so are cannera but trier advance on
those kinds has not been as great as on
ths fair to good rattle. It will be remem
be red, however, that It was the fair to
good cattle that Buffered the greatest de
cline last week. '
Bulls could be Quoted steady today or
!Wrl5c higher than at the close of last
week. Veal calves have teld about steady
11 the week. '
There were not enough stackers and
feeders on sale today to make a market.
Not many were wanted, though, on the
day before Christmas, tor the week all
desirable grades may be Quoted stronsr and
active, ana yeamnge or goon quality are
perhaps a little higher. Common cattla
have shown practically no changa Repre
