was best for the desirable light and
handy weight steers and these sold
mostly about as well as toward the
close of last week. Receipts of heavy
cattle, however, were fairly good and
buyers had a chance io cheapen up on
these grades, their bids being some- ■
what lower than last Friday. Right
good 1.200 to 1.450 pound beeves sold
at $12.40@ 12.90 and the fair to good
900 to 1,200 pound beeves, including a

hogs Monday, and shippers bought
quite it few hogs at the start at fully
