WEAK TO 5 LOVER
1922 Hogs Yarded and Trade
Active.
TOPS REST ON 1882 10
Cattle Market Steady With
Fair Run.

The local hog market yesterday was
weak TO cents lower with demand i'm
proved owe rthe day before and the re-
ceipts heavy. There were ups and downs
on the markets yesterday and some early
reports gave barely steady while those
closest 10 this point reported weak to
5 lower. As q matter of fact the rather
poor and common quality of the offered
hogs had no little to do with the lower
tendency here. There were no real good
hogs in and there was only one fair 10
good lead. This was not at all fancy but
was better than tne balance Of the stuff.
The bulk Of it was common and gener-
ally poor, with not better than fair in
any case. The WACO ntrade was heavy
and the punches IN some cases of fair
S-Ze. The grade was not extra and there
was nothing in either the wagon line or
the car stuff to attract attention. There
was more activity on the rading all day
and trades were closed with readiness and
satisfaction to all concerned. The large
supply was nearly all absorbed and only
one car was left unsoId on the close. The
average weight was only medium light,
registering 23 and there were pigs and
light stun IN plenty. Most OF the car
stuff was weighed up late in the day but
was promptly handled as soon as ready
for the scales, the local trading was
about done at noon and the extra large
line disposed Of. The lower tone Of the
market was due to the sympathetic inf1u-
ence Of other markets, with a weaker and
downward tendency and also to the poor
grade Of stock offered. Nine cars were
weighed up besides the strong line of
wagon hogs. The feeling was more buoy
ant ana buyers took hold better than on
the day before. The week will show up
well in all respects and today being nor
nal Will bring up the receipts all right.
