Salesmen, on the other hand, thought they ought to get a little more money and as a result tho morning was well advanced before much of any business was transacted. The bulk of the medium to good weight hogs went from $6.00 to $5.17 with prime heavies from $5 20 to $o.$0. The lighter weights sold from $5 00 down.

The market on corn fed steers could aafely i be quoted active and strong, with sales go ilng all the way from steady ton, dime higher.

As com pared with the close of last week the mar ket la ful!y 16(U26c higher, and as compared with the low day last week there Is an ad vance in many cases of as much as 4oo. The kinds that wera neglected last week ny both packers and feeders nave snown tna most Improvement. Packers did not want them hecsune thev were too thin and feed ers did not buy them owing to lack of qual ity. Packers, however, are taxing mem this week at an advance 01 luny 10c. The row market was active and strong. The same aa with beef steers sales ranged all the way from steady to a dime iiigner, the greatest Improvement being on the good to choice srndes.
