Heaviest Receipts Of tJae season, Ac-
cOmpanied by q Fair Price

Kansas City, No, June 3.-The
total supply OF cattle last week was
5000 head, quite an increase over
the previous week, and the heaviest
this summer. The class OF the re-
ceipts suited the needs OF the pack
ers better than that Of the previous
week, as fewer heavy beef steers were
included, receipts running more to
light weight cattle, not 50 much beef
Demand was good from all sources
for killing cattle and prices advanced
steadily all week a total gain OF 10
to Is cents being made on killing cat
tie, choice heifers and yearling steers
3 to so cents higher Stockers and
feeders remained quiet small demand
from the country, account Of urgency
Of farm work, and Spectators were
timid about loading up till after the
holiday tomorrow, the Fourth
The supply Of cattle today is 5000
head here, moderate at all points,
and market 10 to 20 higher. A good
deal Of the stuff is in the quarantine
division, probably half, and proper
ton Of good cattle in the native divi-
sion small. Best steers in the last
week sold at $40, but they were not
extra good and a great many cattle
sold at $500 to $5.35, fair to good
steers at S4.65 to S5.15- Top today is
1855. Heifers and yearling steers sell
up to $50, so cents above any re-
cent price, and bulk OF this class at
S3-75 to $4.75, cows S2-75 to $3.50,
bulls lower, $2.25 to 1915, veals IN
changed S4-75 TO S5-25, stOckers and
feeders $500 to $4-35, stock calves
S2-75 to $500. Receipts viii be heavy
Wednesday, and. a good run is ex
pected from now on, but packers took
the liberal supply Of last week in such
a manner as to indicate a large out
let for beef, and fairly good markets
for killing cattle can be counted On
Hog receipts were small here last
week, account OF harvesting in this
territory, and prices were higher. The
market declined last three days. but
is back up this morning, top arOunl
$5.45, bulk Of sales $3.50 and better.
Competition is keen for the hogs ard
indications favor strong markets
Shippers would do well to see that
hogs are well cooled when loaded, as
the loss account OF heat is heavy.
Mutton markets are strong and
higher nearly every day. Small run
today, market 10 to IS higher A
good many spring lambs came in last
week at $3.50 to ST-25, native ewes up
to $4.65, wethers $500, yearlings
$3.50 The general market is 80 TO
40 cents higher than a week ago.
