CATTLE Thern vn n fulrlv 1 1 I ply of cattle here today, but none too many to sunnlv the demntut Pnrli PFM worrt nil good buyers, particularly of the better grndes of corn fed cattle, which made un a good proportion of the receipts. The market as a whole was active and stronger on anything at all desirable. 1 nre were more corn fed cattle on sale today than have been received In some little timn nnd the nimlltv mua nhn,,. the average. The better grades sold readily J.l.J,B.r,J' t0 '""rouKer prices, ns high us $3.80 being paid for a good sized bunch of cattle. The half fnt stuff, howsvor, which Is soiling around $5.00 Is hnrdly ns good on account or (he western grass cattle taking their place. The mnrket on such grades was a llttln weak today and the tendency was to neslect them, Thera were about twenty cars of cows and heifers on salo tedr.y i.nd the market was steady to stronr; and nctlve. Buyers seemed to want all tl,i-n wna iir i,,i sellers held their stocit nt good strong prices. .fc,ven tne medium grades moved more freely and canners changed hands at about tho same prices that wero paid yes- n'l uilj . The demand for feeders was ngaln In good shano and as the sunnlv wan tint excessive, nrloes were ngaln a little stronger. The yards were mil of buyers and as a result comnatltton was keen on the better grades of heavy cattle. The mnrket as a whole may safely bo called a good quarter higher than It was on last Thursday, which was tho low point of the week, so that prices are now nearly back where they wero before the slump. Stock cows and heifers are also a good 10fll5c hltther than they were last week and stock calves nnd bulls have also ad vanced sharply. Western grass cattle were not very plen tiful this mornlnu, but the killers wero picked up at steady to strong prices. Cows also moved freely at strong prices and the same Is true of feeders.

The ilemtiiid on the part of packers wus good, but thev did not wunt to pay morn than they did yesterday and the light receipts made sellers hold their drove at good, strong prices. It wns rather late for that reason before many nf the hogs had changed hands. The preference for light hogs was again very noticeable tb.Ii morn ing, most or the early bids being on the light weights, while the heavy load wero left until the last. When the hogs did be gin to change hands It wns generally on a basis of a 2'jC advance. Light hogs sold largely at $5.00 or better, while' the neavler grades hrnught from $l.92',fc to $l.9i'i$, with most of them irolng nt $4.95 and Jl.i'4. The Inst end of the market wns no, particularly strong, though It was the lc desirable lomls that wero left.

SHEEP-There wns the largest run or sheep here today that has arrived In s'veral months. Packsrs. however, were liberal buyers nnd the market as a result was In good shape taking everything Into con sideration. Lambs were active nnd brought steady to stronger prices. Sheep, though, were n little dull nnd weak and In some cases probably a dime lower. The demand for feeders was heavy again today nnd nrrlvals were light, but prices wero about tho same ns yesterdny.
