of hogs and with an improved market, values
showing an advance Of about Be. The demand
was good md the market active, after the trad
Ing was once commenced and an early clear
was effected.

low as $40 The medium weights sold princ-
pally at 320H33O, and lights as high as 81 4O
While there has been more doing with hogs
than with cattle the past week the receipts

ceipts all sold readily on arrival at good prices
