yearlings, as well as some of the heavy
cattle at prices 10@15c lower than
the close of last week Good to
choice yearlings, also some weighty
cattle sold at $9.25@9.75, the fair to
good 1,000 to 1,300 pound beeves sold
at $8.75@9.25. Due to the large num

the cow and heifer trade was some
what demoralized.

kets at other points and in sympathy
with the general break, the local
