year, although the total is still below the
heavy figures Of July. 1907.
More than 20 per cent Of the reporting

ceding months of the current year. Live
stock receipts at seven interior primary
markets aggregated 2,s74, 1893 head.
With returns from forty-five leading cities,

provement, a small gain over the remark

in excess Of the preceding months total,
