er than late last week for others, the
ruling prices being 3.70@4.50 for the
poorer lots and UP to 6.00@6.50 for
prime lots.
Tone OF the general trade yesterday
was not such as to indicate a very
broad outlet for big receipts later this
week. Beef channels are still clogged
as result of the heavy marketing last
week, and the rather slow buying Of
eastern operators, as we'll as local
packers, was good evidence that they
still have big stock OF beef in cool-
er5.
Hogs.
Prices continued in u downward d.
rection and with estimated receipts of
$4,000 and 600 left over unsold from
last night, the trade was animated at
a further average decline of 5Q10.
The concensus of opinion among the
best posted hog traders Is that the
market has reached the high point of
the year. About the middle of August
prices reached $6.45. which was the
highest mark attained since October,
1903. During the whole summer prices
of hogs were considerably higher than
packers wanted to see them, but there
was such a strong outside demand
that their bearish tactics awaited but
little. Since early spring the shipping
demand has been remarkably good, and
1t was clearly due to this support that
the market moved up to such a high
Lowell During the month of August "a
per cent of the hogs received were
shipped out, while in August last year
the shipments amounted to "a per cent,
which was about normal For the first
eight months Of this year there We're
1922, 900 hogs shipped, or 20 per cent
OF the receipts. A similar comparison
with last year shows that % per cent
were shipped out. We are approach
ing season where the proportion OF
shipments are not likely to be so
strong, and this is given as one reason
why lower prices are expected. The
market seems to be on an artificial
basis now and it is hard to see the
connection between 1t and the provis-
ion market on the board of trade.
Sheep.
A surprisingly heavy run forced val
ues off 1926 of practically everything
offered.
Feeders were still active in the mar
ket for all thrifty lambs and took the
bulk of the offerings readily at prices
about up to the range Of last weeks
late sales Choice handy sheep and
best fat lambs went readily but there
was a slow call for big weight native
ewes and medium and bulky native
lambs.
