CATTLE-With only fifty odd cars on
sale this morning, the yards looked almost
deserted. AS noted yesterday, the receipts
OF cattle this week have been extremely
heavy showing very large gains over last
weeks big run and still heavier gains over
year ago. In view of this fact 1t was
possibly just as well to have a let-up in
the receipts today.
After the big runs OF fat cattle which
characterized the first four days this week.
buyers should be pretty well filled up and
that they would not be anxious for further
supplies. 1t would seem, however, that
the consuming demand for beef at the
present time 10 exceedingly good and that
the number of cattle which packers can
them out. Hence 1t was that buyers were
in saddle early this morning and practi-
cally everything in sight was disposed Of
by 10 O'Clock in the morning or soon after.
Not only was the market active but right
good cattle, If anything, sold a little
steady with yesterday. Among the cattle
were some good enough to bring $50.
Cows and heifers were in very light sup
ply, but they, too. were good sellers In
spite OF the fact that Friday is not gem
orally supposed to be an overly good mar
ket day. The few loads. as we'll as the
odds and ends, were cleaned up in very
good season at prices certainly steady
with yesterday. If any change took place
at all it was on the side OF a strong rather
than weak market.
There were no fresh receipts OF stockers
and feeders TO amount to anything and
none were wanted. Spectators still had
quite a number of cattle on hand and the
market in the feeder division was consid
erably lower for the week Some specula
15625c lower than they paid for them.
