NATIONAL LIVE STOCK CoMMIS
SION COMPANY.
View Of the Live Stock Market at
South Omaha, Neb., C. A. Nal.
IorY. Nor.

lory, Mgr.
South Omaha Dec. 2S.-The usual
holiday dulnCss is with us in the cat.
tie department. with mild weather
and the poultry season in fun force
the demand for beef is naturally lin.
tied and the market for cattle ruled
slow and weak, with prices around last
weeks quotations for nearly all
grades. We have faith in n better
market later on for fat steers and
butcher stock, but still believe IL good
judgment to market cattle whenever
they are in proper condition, but do
not consider II wise to ship half.fat
cattle with the expectation of getting
top prices.
The Omaha market is holding mp
well compared with the other markets
and all who are in the Missouri river
territory will do well to keep in touch
with the National" at these markets.
Hogs.-The hog trade continues to
surprise the packers, and prices ad-
vanced until the bulk sold here on
Tuesday at $510m515 Since then
the receipts have increased somewhat
and we note a reaction OF 5m10c. bu,
good hogs are still good for $500 here
Conditions are favorable for good
hog market during the season, but ma.
tural reactions both ways will con.
tinue
We advise making hogs heavy when.
ever conditions are favorable and ship.
ping whenever they are ready, but
every farmer should keep in the hog
business to the fullest extent of his
ability to handle them along the right
lines.
Sheep.-The sheep and lamb situa-
tion this week shows no change from
last weeks close. This being the
midst of the holiday season, the de
mand for dressed meats is very poor,
consequently the markets for live
sheep and lambs are very uneven.
Packers buyers are Indifferent when
selecting stock; and if they can buy
enough to keep a fair supply of meat
on hand at prices that suit them. they
are willing to take care of what is
CDHlluS W market. we 90 not IOOK
for much change in conditions until
after the holidays. Then there will
be natural reaction and the demand
will be good for stuff at strong prices,
and we can see no reason why it will
not continue so throughout the whole
month of January as there will not be
any regular movement of any very
great amount of stuff from the food
lots until after February /. We ad-
wise keeping in close touch with us
before shipping during the next week
AS the quality of the offerings at
all markets has not been very good,
we quote normal values for good
stock: Lambs $7.25@7.5O; yearlings,
SGOO@ $50; wethers, $5.750G.OO; ewes
$4.S50 5.25; fair to good stock lambs,
$G.5O@7OO; yearlings, $5750G.OO;
wethers, $5.25@5.GO; ewes, 81 25@4.75.

Some sales of killing cattle Tuesday were 35 to 50 cents above Friday of last week, but as soon as packers saw a likelihood of better weather and increased re- ceipts, they adopted waiting tactics, and refused to buy since then ex- cept at reductions Of 5 to 15 cents each day. The week closes, how ever, with small net advance, pretty well covering all kinds of killing cattle. Good stockers and feeders are 10 to 20 cents higher than week ago. account of scar city.
 Total cattle receiptsw this week are only 10000 head, two thirds Of which came last half of the week.
