Detroit Yards

The cattle trade at the Detroit
stock yards on Thursday was dull and
slow, but prices were not much diff
ferent from those paid last week. The
Detroit trade in dressed beef during
the past week is rated as the worst
of the season; retailers are complain
ing OF lack OF money among their
customers and the wholesaler Is be-
ginning to feel the result OF these con-
ditions.
Mich cows are active and unchang-
ed. Tue run OF veal calves was not
up TO the demand OF the trade and
last weeks loss was regained. The
shipper saved the day In the calf de-
partment. Prime calves, S707.50.
Sheep and lambs were active, with
lambs selling 20 cents above last
week. A few prime lambs brought
$725. The quality was decidedly
common. Outlook favors steady val
ues for the coming week.
Hogs were fairly active and Is to 20
cents higher. The quality was little
better than last week. Pigs were duh
at $425@4.35. Prime mediums. $4.65
@4.70; light workers.. $4.400450;
roughs, $4.10@425
