largest of the Of August 25 we learn that The past month has developed quite a shortage in the supply of choice fat cattle and with a good home and foreign demand prices have advanced to the highest point of ths xear The market on beef steers was just about steady on all kinds and fairly active so that the offerings for the most part changed hands early in the morning The offerings were small as compared with yesterday and the kind of cattle was different the most of themtoday being corn feds instead of western grassers All told their were a few over twenty loads of corn fed steers none of them choice buc with quite a sprinkling of fairish stuff such as 13 selling at about 5 There were only eight or ten loads of western goods enough for the killers Something like twenty to twenty five loads constituted the days supply of cows and heifers and the market on that kind of cattle Tas certainly no more than steady and in many cases weak to a little lower The demand appeared to be quite good on the part of local packers and the most of the stuff on sale was weighed up in good season A string of western cows sold at 290 and there were others good enough to bring considerably more than 3 but there were no bunches to compare with the western heifers which sold at 4 yesterday World Herald Aug 30 Strayed Two- 2 yr old steers brand ed H on left side and tiiigli and on left thigh Geo

favor a large consumption of beef Pork and mutton are not so at tractive as substitutes because they are notso cheap as they were from Omaha year in cars shipped but owing to the fact that heavier
