CATTLE Only two cars of cattle were
reported In today and the feeiiug on the
market was just about steady with yester
day. For the week receipts foot up 3U.00
head as against 30.600 head last week and
40.600 head a year ago. Thus it will be
seen that while receipts of cattle have been
the largest since the beginning ot mo
range season they are nevertheless mucn
smaller than a year ago,
The market on beef steers, more especially
the good to choice kinds, has been In very
batisractory condition throughout the week
and prices have been fully steady or pos
sibly a little stronger. Thus the best beef
steers sold up to $7.90, the high price since
August of last year. Range beeves have
sold as high as $6.70. which is also the
highest price paid since a year ago. At
the close of the week the feeling is possibly
a little easier even on the best grades of
cattle, while common and inferior kinds of
cattle, of which there has been a large sup
ply this week, are quite a little lower. In
some extreme cases possibly loii,14c lower
than a week ago
Cows and heifers have been good sellers
throughout the week and the market has
not shown very much change In either
direction. Some days the feeling was a
little weaker on account of the large sup
nlv nf common steers, but in the main the
market has been satisfactory, with prices
not far from steady
Best fetders, both light and heavy, have
solu at steady prices all tne week, wlta
the country demand fair. Inferior grades
eased off and at the close are around 10411
16c lower than last week. The country ia
still acting a little backward, but still buy
inn more freelv than last week.

HOGS The maraei was aoout oc uiii
this morning than yesterday, a good snare
of all the hogs selling at $7 .vug.?. 15, aa
against $7.00(ijfl.l0 yesterday. The quality
on an average was poor today and there
was nothing in the way of right choice
loads to make a top on the market A tew
head of lightweights thrown out of a load
sold as high as $7.40, but aside from that
there were no full loads good enough to
bring over $7.30. The trade was not very
active owing largely to the fact that re
ceipts were not large enough to prove very
very interesting to buyers, the run being
the smallest for a Saturday so far this
year. While, as noted, the trade was not
very active there was a sufficient demand
to clean up the forty odd loads in sight
before 10 o'clock in the morning.
The receipts this week have been very
moderate, footing up only 28,400 head, as
against 33,600 bead last week and 31,700 for
the corresponding week of last year. Prices
during the week have fluctuated to some
extent, the high point being touched on
Tuesday and the low point on Thursday.
The reaction In the market yesterday and
today makes up for all the loss, so that the
market at the close of the week Is very
little different from what it was on Satur
day of last week, when most of the hoys
sold at $7.077.15. but with a top as high
as $7.55.

SHEEP Barring a few odds and ends,
as well aa a very respectable ottering in
speculators' hunds, the sheep and lamb
markets today were practically barren.
Nothing fresh of consequence arrived and
prices showed no actual change in any
branch of the trade.
Receipts during tne week were the heav
iest thus far this season, emphasizing the
fact that the range marketing has been
Inaugurated in earnest, i he total for the
six days amounts to right around lSO.OUO
head, bulk consisting of lambs mostly in
feeder flesh. A alow, draggy demand witn
difficult and Incomplete ciearancea natur
ally held little surprise for sellers, but
aside from the severe decline In lambs the
manner In which offerings moved out ot
pens indicated anything but a narrow out
let. At the close of the session on most
oays clearance usually found only a few
loads still unsold.
Kat lamb trade suffered the worst, good
clasa-a dropping aa low as $5.60 and lea.
A $6 top is still quotable, but It mould take
something extra choice to bring It. Cur
rent prices show net losses from a week
ago of fully u4j75c.
Kat sheep held up well for the reason
that they were too scarce to admit of
cost cheapening. Good ewes are closing
around $4,004)3.15 and toppy wethers are
wanted at $3.4043.50. Desirable yearling
show little change. Sheep and yearlings
have been selling freely from start to
unlah.
Something like 80,000 head of feeder stock
were purchased on country and speculative,
ordera during the week, over 60 per cent of
total receipts. Thrifty feeder lambs made
up the big end of the "buy," closing at an
average decline of about a half dollar. The
better claases are now selling around $5.00
