light receipts of the Past three or four ( lays.
The most of the cattle here were killers
and a good share of them cornfee natives.
There were a few hay-fed westerns In the
, yards.
lVery one wanted cattle this morning ,
flfl(1. ( While the offerings of beeves were
quite liberal , thaL fact did not pievelit there
being a good strong and active market.
The buyers vre earlp in the 50(1(110 ( and
the offerings changed hands quite readily ,
ro that an early clearance was efTecled.
Among the offerings were some proLty. good
cattle and as high as $ I.O was paul for
1,430 and I,4Oi.pound steers. Quite a string
of cattle. the most of them weighing between -
tween 1,300 and 1,400 Pounds , sold at from
$2.8 ; to 13.90.
The market on butchers' stock was also
active and strong and everything sold eariy.
Only about tea to twelve loads of cows
afll heifrs were offered ( or sale and they
(11(1 ( not last very long in the face of the
very active demand on the part of local
' parkers.
The stocker and feeder trade did not
present any especially new features. There
were not many cnttle of that kind in the
yaris and what there wore brought about
' . - the same old prices. Light stockers continue -
tinue In very active tlemani ( arni anything
