CATTLE-What was said about last Sat
we'll today as all Saturdays are about alike.
Light receipts and a nominally steady
market tells the whole story. A consider
able proportion of the cattle reported in
were consigned direct to packers and were
not offered for sale. SO that there Is not
much to report in the way of actual trans
actions. A three-load bunch of choice 1850
Id. branded cattle brought $500, and some
good natives went at $5.O5. The market on
cow stuff, feeders, etc, was unchanged.
Taken all In all this has been rather an
uneventful week in the cattle trade as
values have shown very little change in
and the demand for killers good. so good,
In fact. that packers have been forced to
ship in a large number of dressed beef
steers. as well as Gamers from Kansas
City. Values on the kind OF fat cattle re-
ceived here have been right up to. or bet
ter than In competing markets, and the
only reason that the top has not shown up
so well as at Chicago or Kansas City Is
due to the fact that we have not been re-
ceiving as good cattle. There has not been
a single load of prime cattle in these yards
this winter. such as would be considered
' toppy cattle at. either Chicago or Kansas
sellers all the week, and at prices entirely
satisfactory to shippers. In the feeder d.
vision general stagnation has been the rule
all the week. Few cattle that would answer
to that description have been coming for
ward. and few have been wanted. and un-
less present Indications point in the wrong
direction. there Is not liable to be any
marked improvement for some little to
come. Representative sales:

SHEEP-The sheep market lOoReo
deserted today. as there was practically
nothing to make a market. Three loads OF
good yearling weathers were brought in
from Fremont to be dipped. but not to BIO
offered on the market. All this week the
market on sheep and lambs has been
quiet and entirely devoid of especially new
or interesting features, partly on account
of the small receipts and partly because OF
the poor quality of the most OF the. offer:
ings. Good muttons are about steady and
lambs a little lower. but prices very high
as compared with other. selling points.
Lambs that would bring S.15 here are not
selling for more than 1925 In Chicago, and
the heavy wethers that are going at $3.50
here would not bring to exceed S.Sbq3.9O.
The fact that this market Is so much out OF
line Is another reason why the market has
been a little inclined to drag. as some OF
the packers have held back on account OF
the prevailing high prices.
In the feeder division the trade has been
very quiet, as buyers have been few and
far apart.
