CATTLE.
CATTLE.

Receipts show a slight in
crease as compared with a week
ago and a year ago, but there
has been no material change in
prices this week. Desirable
beeyes have besn scarce enough
to command steady to strong
prices right along, while the
market has been slow and drag
gy on the medium and common
grades. This applies to both
corn fed and western range cat
tie. Anything in the way Of
grass steers, on which the kill
ers and feeder buyers came in
competition, has found a ready
sale at firm figures, but on ne
dunn and common steers the
trend of prices has been easier
throughout. Cow stuff is SELL
ing about the same as last week,
with thin stuff very hard to sell
unless suitable for feeders.
Business in stockers and feeders
has been Of liberal volume, and
while the demand is best and
prices higher for good weight
and quality steers there has
been an improvement IN the
market for the light and medi-
am weight grades Of late, and
prospects are favorable for a
good clearance for the week.
HOGS.
Although supplies have been
running somewhat lighter than
a weeek aga ar a year ago, the
trend Of prices has been down.

cline Of about a dime for the

grades are still in the best de-

the fair to good hogs Of all
weights arc pretty we'll punched,
and the bulk Of the hogs are

points. Packers are still dis
