KANSAS CRY, Mo-, Wednesday, Sept.
6-All kinds of cattle except corn fed
stuff and veal calves are lower this
week The supply for three days
amounts to $4,000 head, and the de-
mand IS not quite up to this large total
The packers have taken care of their
kinds better than the feeder buyers
previous to today, but the yards are
full of country buyers today, and
stockers and feeders are steady at the
previous decline this week, Is to %
cents below week ago
Killing cattle are selling steady to-
day also, at to Is cents below last
week. Range cattle, of course, make
up the bulk of the receipts this week,
and very large share of them are
stockers and feeders. Colorado feed
ers, $50 to 100 lbs, sod at 1886 to
$3.50; New Mexico yearlings at $3.50,
and the bulk of the lightweight steers
and thin heavy steers at 1926 to $3.50,
while the f1eshy stuff, good enough for
the packers, sold at $3.45 to $3.50; few
medium to common stockers at $2.75 to
1926.
Fair to good COWS are selling at $3.50
to $2.65; some heavy western cows at
$2O5; one bunch of Colorado spayed
heifers 1926, with few out at 1915;
Gamers 81 to 1926.
Veal calves are 30 cents higher this
week; top today $3.50; not many range
calves have been here this week.
Bulls sell at 81 to $2.35 mainly.
Should the decline this week shut off
the receipts any, prices will imme-
diately react, as the demand just now
is keyed up to take care of extra heavy
receipts.
The mutton market has eased off a
little this week, except for country
grades, which continue to sell at what
looks like exhorbitant prices. Utah
lambs made $3.50 Monday, the highest
price since last winter, but are prob
ably 16 cents lower today. Some Ari-
IONA lambs, 70 lbs, sold today at $40;
Arizona wethers, 100 lbs, at $5.40. Ewes
for slaughter bring $435 to $4.65, and
fair to good wethers at 1886 to $500
The run has amounted to $4,000 in the
last week, and out of this country buy
ers have secured a fair share. Stock
ewes bring 1915 to 81 25; wethers $4.25
to $4.65; yearlings around So; lambs
$3.50. Receipts have been liberal at all
markets, but the price holds up, and it
is expected to keep up pretty we'll all
