Light re- ; ceipts and a good demand have combined 1 to give tho market a steady upward ten- 1 dency. I raetleslly every oay this week the market h shown more or less ad vance up until Friday, when there wna nt enough on sale to really make a mar ket. The total advance for the week may be figured at ivg.tte. Very few wet tier and yearling have been coming. In fact hardly enough to make quotation, the arrival consisting very largely of wooled lambs, with a sprinkling of shorn ewes nd lambs. The present prospects would seem to favor very light receipts from now oir. all report BKree tht Nebraska feed lot are prac tically cleaned up. while the most of the Colorado stuff that ha not been sold ha ben shipped to eastern shearing and feed ing station and la outside of thi tern tory. As packers still have use for f stieen ami amhs. there is no reason anticipating anything else than a good tron market from now until the close of the season.

A will be noted from the table of receipt at the head of the column the arrival this week have been extremely heavy, showing a gain of considerably over 4,000 head aa compared with a week ago. and of over 6.00U head as compared with tlvj corresponding week of lust year. In fact the receipts of cattle have been the largebt since the week ending March 24. Another feature of the week's business is the fact that the arrivals have co.i alfted very largely of corn-fed becvel si.d that the niullty f the same has bee.i Improving, being better on au average than for any previous week. In spite of the large runs the market as a whole ha been In very fair condition. At tho open ing of the week value were generally 6JilUr lower oil eteer. with Tuesday's: market steady and Wednesday strong to 10c higher. Since . Wednesday there has been no very great change and atill values if anything have strengthened up a lit tle. While the market haa actually shown comparatively little advance the quality has been so much beitr tnat sale cer tainly show up to better advantage 011 paper. nd largely for that reason quite a good many operators on the market rs Quoting- a otfirtc advance for the week. Cow and heifer have fared even bet ter than steers for the reason that they old not experience any decline on Mondav while they also got the lull benefit of Wednesday' advnee. They are now safely 10(g'15c higher than a week ag- and ome would even quote a much 4 It'ijiOe advance. The strength in th'j cow market haa been due large.lv to the fact that the reeelpts of that kind of cattle have been very light all the weex. Stocker and feeder of all kind have been In very light receipt, there being nothing like a good run on any day this week. At the same time the demand has been of fair proportion. peol6liy the. demand for well-bred yearling stockers, which are 25i&36c higher thn they were last week.
