&c CO.,
Live Stock Commission Merchants,
SOUTH ST. PAUL.
Weekly Market Letter.

CATTLE-The receipts of cattle at
South st. Paul the past week have been
moderate and especially has this been
so on beef cattle. There is not near
enough fat stuff coming in to supply the
demand. The receipts for the past few
days have been mostly habitat cows and
heifers.
The market on stockers and feeders has
been dull and especially so on the fair and
common grades of cattle. Prices ruled
10 to Is cents lower than last week. We
anticipate a quiet market on this class
of cattle the coming week.
Fair and common mixers and springers
are dull and very slow sale, and we would
advise shippers to buy this class of cat
tie very low, as they are more than apt
to sell at lower prices in the near future.
We quote: Good to choice beef steers,
$475 to $525; fair to good, 81 to $3.50; good
to choice fat heifers, $3.75 to $40; good
to choice fat cows, $3.50 to 81; fair to
GOOD grass butcher steers, $685. to $40;
fair to good grass fat cows and heifers,
So to $3.50; Gamers, s1.75 to 1925; fair TO
good fat bulls, $2.75 to $3.50; good to choice
stock steer calves, 81 TO $3.50; good to

fair to good stock heifers, So to $3.75; fair
to good feeding bulls, $3.50 to So; common
stockers and feeders, $3.50 to $275 milk
ers and springers, $40 to $40.
HOGS-The supply of hogs the past
week has been fairly liberal, and the
quality has been quite good. Choice light
hogs are now taking the lead in price
and are selling from S to 10 cents higher

butchers, SO. 65 to 1918; good to choice mix
ed hogs $3.6 to $50; good to choice heavy

to Sc; good to choice muttons, $4.25 to
