CATTLE-As usual on Saturday there
were practically no fresh receipts OF cattle
and as everything was cleaned up yester-
day there was nothing of any consequence
on sale and the market was nomlnally I'M
changed.
heaviest since the latter part of January,
being some 1000 heavier than last week and
about II, 600 heavier than for the third week
of April last year. In point of quality The
offerings have been very good, In fact
about the best of the season to date.
Notwithstanding the heavy supplies every
day, the market has been in very salts
factory shape for sellers and shows an
advance of fully loc for the week in de-
sirable grades: The demand has been
good and while buyers have started out
with the intention Of buying the cattle
lower, most of the time they usually
wound up paying steady to strong prices
and there has been a good, strong, healthy
undertone to the trade from start to fin
ish. AS is usually the case at this time
Of the year, all classes of buyers have
shown marked preference for the fat,
have sold to the best advantage and show
the most advance. on the other hand there
has been a tendency TO neglect the heavier
cattle and as rule the market has been
more or less draggy on this class Of stuff,
although prices at the close are substanti-
ally the same as they were at the opening
of the week.
The proportion of COWS and heifers in
cluded in this weeks liberal receipts has
been very small while the demand botr
from local packers and outside butchers
has been as good as any time this season.
The result has been strong, active mar
ket every day, with an advancing ten
dency to prices, and closing quotations are
anywhere firm 10c to 25c higher than a
week ago. The Improvement being most
pronounced on the fat light and heifery
grades such as all classes of buyers have
been after The market for veal calves
has been strong all week and there has
been no quotaPle change in prices for
bulls. stays, etc
Business in feeders has been dull this
week, supplies having been comparatively
! light and the demand rather limited.
! Prices have held up all right on the good
feshy steers as well as on the best year
/ lings. On the other hand the ordinary light
and medium weight grades have been slow
