The disposition of the day s receipts was
as follows, each buyer purchaser the num-
h.r Of head innLcated.



CATTLE-There we're only a lew cattle
in the yards this morning, but those that
were offered on the market sold Freely
at steady prices. For the week receipts
nave been fairly liberal, as there Is an in
crease over the corresponding week OF
last year, but there Is a slight decrease as
compared with the big run last week. =,
The beef steer market has been in good
shape practically all of the week. Inc DE,
mand on the part of packers has been equal
to the supply and the tendency OF. prices
has been upward. AS compared with the
close of last week all classes OF cattle are
about l0q15c higher. Handy weight cattle
are still favorites, but at the same time
the heavy cattle of good uuaIity have sold
to advantage the last day or so. The bulk
OF the good to choice cattle are now sell
ing from $40 to $40, with the prime graoes
going mostly from S4.I to S4.9J. "A finished
bunch, though, would probably sell con-
siderably above that figure,
strong most all the week. Offerings have
been rather moderate as compared with the
total receipts and as buyers all seemed to
have quite liberal orders the better grades
were picked up in a hurry. All grades eX-
cept Gamers ma be quoted lO4l5c higher
than the close of last week. Gamers have
been slow sale and are no more than steady
for the week. Gamers are selling largely
from $500 to S2.75, fair to good cows from
$2.0A to S3.75 and choice grades from 1915 to
$3.50.
Bulls, veal calves and stays have shown
very little change during the week, though
the market may be quoted strong. Bulls
are selling largely from $500 to 80. 20 and
choice grades up to $500. Veal calves sell
mostly from $500 to $3.50.
The stocker and feeder market has not
been quite as brisk this week as 1t was
last week and all but the very best grades
are a little lower. Very few warmed-up
cattle are now selling. for feeders, as the
advance on beef cattle has put the warmed
ups out OF reach of feeder buyers. The bulk
OF the good to choice cattle are now selling
from $500 to $40. fair TO good 1915 to 500
and commoner kinds from 1915 down. Rep

HOGS-There was a light run of hogs
here this morning and as a result the mar

Yesterdays close the market was strong
ID &C higher, or about 2lac higher than yes

light hogs here today. which helps out the
average price to quite an extent. Trading
was quite acIlve. SO tnst the early arrivals

so that the close was postponed until rather
late in the day. The bulk of the hogs that
