sHEEP--There were only four cars on
sale today, making for the three days a
sharp decrease in receipts as compared
with the corresponding three days of last
week. The quality of the offerings, how
ever. and the moderate receipts were fac
tors in keeping the market well in line.
There is a good demand for the desirable
kinds of either sheep or lambs, and today,
as has been the case all the week, buyers
picked up the stuff in good season. Prices
ruled generally steady and trading was
brisk. Most of the receipts were cleaNed
up before o'clock. The market at al
points Is in very satisfactory condition, and
although at some markets receipts are
moderately heavy, prices are holding up
well Some more of the Gibson lambs sold
here today at .25, while some good weth-
ers sold at $25 A load OF grass ewes were
good enough to bring $4.35.
