SOUTH ST. PAUL LIVESTOCK

The supply Of cattle this week has not
been large and the quality was hardly
up to the average. Demand was strong,
and packers wanted good cattle with
out being able to get as many as need
ed. The market had a. good tone thru
out and trade was active.
With the condition of the beef trade
stronger markets elsewhere, the tone
here strengthened for the better
grades, but as there was scarcity of
such cattle the improvement was not
reflected to any considerable extent in
dealings. Most of the cattle being of
fair to medium quality, the prices paid
were generally steady. Veal calves re-
manned unchanged; bulls steady. The
stocker and feeder market has been
the va rds well cleared. The supply has
been fairly liberal, but the quality was
mostly medium. Good feeders were in
strong demand, and the market did not
furnish enough. -.-
Conditions in the hog market have
changed materially this week.: Instead
of the light hogs going at highest
prices the butcher weights are: COM

little difficulty will be experienced in
getting thru the crop-moving season.
There is a perceptibly easier tone for

obtainable at 6 per cent, with the same
price bid for three and four months ,,
