THE SWINE MARKET.
The run is light again this week i'm
point of numbers, being only some 200
head more than last week. The de-
mands is medium to good. near about
equal to the somewhat limited re-
ceipts. The quality is fully as good
as last weeks offerings. Prices have
been well maintained at last weeks
figures (94010!c), and the prospects
are that higher figures will rule next
week, as western prices are advanc-
ing to a greater degree than our home
quotations.
