The trade as a whole was fairly active and about every- t hIng In the yards changed hands early In t he morning. tc There was quite a sprinkling of cornhed c attle in the yards , in fact more than yes- t erday ttnd better cattle. The market on t hat kind was fully steady , with the local p flekiflg demand very good. Well iinhshed c ornfc'd cattle sold at $5.OO15.2O. cml from t hat up to $5.40 for a very fancy bunch of : Herefords , the best cattle seen here In a l eng time. The medium kinds sold from : a bout $4.50 on down according to quality. The market on cows and helfers o'as not , materially ehnniged , It being joist hitout s toutly Ut ( lie decline ilOted yesterday , t hough (110 feeliitg today was possibly a l ittle blotter owing to the foct that there I was not so much on sale. The offerings for t he most Part met with ready takers at c iirreiit pnicca. Sonic Pretty fair heifers t hat had had some corn brought $4.25 , and r ange lieifers soul at $3.60. 'rho market on feeders antI stock cattle 4 was active , though It could not be quotei I any higher than ycsterday. Some fancy S yearlings sold at $1.15. Good feeding cattle I weighing about 800 to 1,00' ' ) pounds , ready tc I go into the feed lot , are sellIng mostly at : $ 4.20'4.35. rhe demand at the present time appears to be fully equal to the supply an all arrivals are meeting' ' wIth ready sale. Ranger steers goad enough for beef wer i ii active demand and sold at steady prices ' Some very good grass westerns sold ai 4 high as $4.42. Representative sales : s'rEERS. No. Av. Pr. No , y , Pr.
