SHEEP-Recerpts th!s morning were
large for a Friday and especially so when
run all the week has been large for the
mid-holiday season. Packers have been
free buyers all the week, and II was APP
parent this morning that they were pretty
well supplied and that their appetite for
fresh receipts were not as keen as yes
terday and day before. Still there was
very fair demand and the desirable killers
changed hands early in the morning at good
steady prices. On the other hand there
were several cars of half-fat stun that
packers did not appear to want and it was
nard work dlsposing of them at anything
like a satisfactory price.
Western lambs sold UP to N.5, Win
yearlings at s6l5, the same price that was
paid for them on Monday. Wethers that
brought 1915 yesterday sold at the same
Among the receipts today we're several
cars OF feeders which sold at Just about
steady prices. There seems to be very
fair demand at this point all the time for
desirable feeders.
Shippers ought to keep in mind the oft
repeated caution that unfinished sheep are
not wanted and that 1t is the height OF
folly to ship in anything of that kind, espe-
number of sheep on feed in the country is
smaller than usual and that they Will All
be wanted at good prices before the coming

CHICAGO, Dec. &.-The comparative
smallness OF the clearances for the week
and a report that the winter wheat crop is
IN good condition caused a weak feeling In
the wheat market here today, At the close
Corn was unchanged Oats we're a shade

The wheat market early in the day was
steady on moderate buying by commission
houses, which was based upon firm cables,
small receipts in the northwest and de-
creased shipments from Argentina. Dur
ing the last hour, however, the report OF
trade journal that the growing wheat
crop is In a satisfactory condition and that
a more liberal movement of old wheat Is
expected caused active selling. which
weakened the market. The announcement
that clearances OF wheat and -four from
TO 2,495, 600 bu. against 100000 bu. for last
week added to the bearish feeling. The
total volume of trading was small. The

HOGS-Buyers appeared to have made up
and they started out bidding prices a shade
easier than those which prevailed yester-
day. Sellers did not appear TO feel the
same way, as they held on, refusing 10 take
off anything. Later on buyers raised their
hands and the market became fairly active
at steady prices. AS II became apparent
market frmed up and became a little
stronger than yesterday. The market as a
whole was a shade better than yesterday
and II was sufficiently active 10 effect a
clearance of everything i'm sight at very
good hour In the forenoon.
AS will he noted below the top was Sc 25
which was paid for choice loads. This
was DC higher than anything brought yes
terday. II will also be noted that while the
range OF prices on the bulk OF the hogs was
the same as yesterday there were more
sales at the top prices and not so many
at the bottom today.

CATvTLE-There was about the usual

that Is not saying much as the receipts
are never very large so near the end of

fair shape; in fact, there was more life to
the trade and better feeling than usual
at this time OF the week.
Packers did not appear to have all the
fat steers that they could use this week
and the market accordingly was fairly
active at good strong prices. The mod

market to gradually recover the loss OF
