It Ill . t 62 SHEEP Character of sheep and lamb supply took a peculiar turn, bulk of fresh offerings being feeder ewes. In slxe the run waa only moderate, amount ing to about 16,000 head In all. This esti mate gives a four day's total of right around 124,000 "head, an aggregate' mar keting that lends emphasis to belief that receipts are at ebbtide. At any rate, all reports from the west Indicate an absence of recent heavy supplies from this time on and It Is very probable that last week's total will stand as a high record, for the season. Percentage of feeders In today's offerings was estimated at fully seven-tenths, or about 10.500 head. Anything good In the way of fat stock met with a healthy demand front packers and started out at generally ' steady prices. Choice lambs. Identical with the 35.76 article yesterday, proved "repeaters" and Rood classes ranted at 35.50 and less. Strings that moved below the 35.25 mark drew some little com pensation from country buyers and were usually seconds of more or less doubtful dressing promise. Desirable fat sheep showed no changes worth mentioning, getting steady bids In most cases. Classy ewes are quotable up to 33.75 and prime, handy wethers would bring 34-00 without much selling effort. Toppy yearlings were scarce, but some inquiry was heard at and near 34.26, indicating a limit of about 34.40. Demand had plenty of tone and move ment was fairly active. Feeders failed to show as muoh life as recently, but this phase of the market was generally credited- to usual week end contraction in demand rathern than a permanent decrease In country orders. Firm prices were paid for the ordinary run of stuff and business was by no means dull or sluggish. The better kinds ot ewes sold around 32.65fc2.80 and weighty, thrifty lambs brought 35.10 and better. According to packers' tab, yester day's feeder purchase amounted to 17,000, making a three days' buy of 71,000 head. ' As compared with prices at last week's clone, current trade In fat lambs shows a net gain of about a quarter, while fat sheep are, selling all the way from a dime to . a quarter higher. Feeder classes, barring ewes, have scored 16fc25c adv ances, thin ewes ruling Just about steady throughout.

Movement proved very quiet from start to finish and sellers usually railed it a near trade, the description being short, but expressive. Size of supply had no visible Influence upon the tone to the demand as cheap ening cost reKsrdless of receipts' vo.uiue seems to be u mailer of principle with buyers at present.
