CATTLE@There were not nearly as many
cattle on sale today as arrived yesterday
and as a result the market recovered some
what from the decline OF yesterday and the
day before. Packers took hold with more
life and trading was fairly active on all
kinds of killers of desirable grades. The
common kinds were neglected, but still a
early hour.
There were quite q few beef steers in the
yards this morning, but apparently there
were none too many of the better grades to
meet the demand. The general market
could safely be quoted strong and active
and some sales were made that looked 90
10c higher han the sans kinds sold for
yesterday. TIL common grades did not
sell much more than steady.
The COW market was also active and
strong on anything at all good. The same
as was the case with steers a good many
sales looked b@10c higher h yesterday
and the bulk OF the better grades was out
of first hands in good season. Gamers and
medium grades did not sell much more
than steady.
but still the market did not show much
change so far as the prices paid were con-
cerned. The same was true of calves and
stays.
The stocker and feeder trade was dull
again today. There were not very many in
the yards, but so few buyers have been in
from the ountr this week that specu-
lators were afraid to buy anything today
unless they could get II at a low figure.
For that reason the market was slow and
strictly choice In the way of heavyweight
feeders would probably have met with
ready sale, but such kinds are very scarce.
