Stockvard Notes,


1t will only take a few thousand
more hogs to make over 100000 head
at eleven markets for 1908 to date. or
2,435,0 more than arrived the same
period of 1907.
Receipts at Chicago so far this year
show a gain of $500 cars over the
same period last year.
Indications point to a scarcity of
good feeding cattle for several years
to come.
Well-bred light stock steers are
claimed by many buyers to show ESQ
40c advance over two weeks ago
Fat cows and heifers. in scant sup
ply, sold freely at firm prices. Good
cows and heifers mostly 1Oc higher
than a week ago. Medium and COM
mon kinds slow to 10c lower.
The demand for we'll finished year
lings has been brisk all this week and
hardly enough of them have been here
to fill buyers requirements.
Outside demand for she stock has
fallen off of late, and a continuation of
narrower competition is likely to
crush values hard. A sharp movement
toward a lower price basis in the
butcher stock trade will not come as a
surprise to the sellers.
The market for Gamers and cutters
has been in bad shape for the past
two weeks, and light runs this week
have continued to sell on the same low
basis established week ago. Good
cutters sold at So, and a plain kind
down to 50 go, while bulk of canning
cows made $2.1O@2.4O. Inferior were
quoted at S1.5O@1.75.
James White, prominent farmer
and feeder of Big Rock, Iowa, was
here with a shipment of cattle of his
own feeding, averaging 1908 lbs, which
sold at cents.

Chicago, April 17.-Cattle-Only L.
600 head We're received. and the mar
ket showed little change. There was
scarcely enough stuff to make mar
ket, and sellers Quilted prices as Mons
inally steady.
The first four days this week the
supply totals only 4l,000, which is q
little lighter than last week, and a
remarkably small run for this time OF
the year. Buyers showed a disposition
to buy up the light weight cattle with
a little more freedom and with less
coaNing. Heavy steers We're just as
hard to sell, however, and it was for
tunate that there We're not many OF
that kind on the market
The week previous to Easter is gem
orally a poor one for the distribution
of meat, but packers assert that they
have never seen more stagnant trade
for beef than at present. The demand
has practically dried up for the heavy
cuts of beef, and the light weights are
not finding any too good an outlet.

tho eastern buyers are still taking
ibout 40 per cent of the receipts. They
Are decidedly more discriminating. and
anything with weight is passed by II
lighter weights can be secured.
Exporters have not bought many
cattle since early in the week. and
prices on the other side are still too
low to admit of extensive operations.
logs.
A little better tone was shown after
the first hour. During that early period.
the market was slow and tedious, with
few sales. An improvement came with
a demand from regulars, who became
active supporters of the market. Re-
ceipts were light. The close was about
steady.
Receipts are equal to last week, but
$4,000 less than year ago, while
demand is very weak. To this
the break is attributed solely.
Strength in the provision pit was
good feature. Pit sentiment is un-
doubtedly bearish. but product is on a
sc basis while hogs are around SIC,
which ought to discount bearishness.
The recent 75c decline has changed
the attitude of pit traders and there
is no indication that the bull coterie
has lost it's nerve. A lot of weak ones
have been eliminated from the trade
and there will probably be some buy
ing at the new scale of prices. Liver
pool product was unchanged Local
shipments of meats were less than last
year and lard more.
A year ago s6.6O@6.65 took a big
slice OF the crop. The heavy move
ment was then just commencing in
stead of subsiding as now.
Sheep.
Both sheep and lambs were quotably
Receipts were 5000, and did
not appear to be heavy.
