has been previously stated packers nave
to the fact that the big bulk OF the offer
inRs for some time past has been com
posed OF feeders. The few punches of fat
sheep and lambs that were on sale this
morning were picked up in a hurry at good
strong prices. The market could best be
described by calling 1t active and strong
on all desirable grades.
There was also q liberal demand for feed
ers. The better grades of both sheep and
lambs showed a little strength. but the
common kinds did not improve enough to
be noticeable. IL was not long, though, be-
fore the bulk OF the more desirable oher-
inas was out of first hands.

for sellers were not 81 ell anxious to
take the prices offered, and, besides that.
several OF the trains were late In arriving,
which. OF course, prolonged the market.
There was some reaction on the last end
