MARKET LETTER
From Our Regular Kansas City
Stock Yard Correspondent

Kansas City Stock Yards,
March l., 1909. Outside of the
moderate increase Of 1000 cattle
last week over recent weeks,
cattle r~aisers have remained Sc
rene and confident, thanks to
which condition of mind there
has been no big break in prices
due to heavy runs drawnsout by
two weeks of continued sharply
higher prices. Ordinarily, such
an upturn in the market would
bring out from cover a much
larger run than has been the
case this time, and the prices
would go down quickly, but at
this time, the opinion prevails
that receipts will be moderate
for at least six weeks ahead,
and prices as good or better are
the expectation of majority of
feeders. The market on steers
declined 20 to 30cents last week
from the high level of Tuesday
last, when a large number of
cattle sold at 500 10 $40.
Cows and heifers held more
nearly steady, and stockers aud
feeders steady to a shade lower
for the week. The run today is
10000 head, market steady to 10
lower on steers, COWS and he'll
fers about steady, country grade
firm. Quality in steers is lack
ing today, top steers at S6.40 to
to 1866, bulk OF steers 1915 to
So. 25, cows $50 to IS. 25, heifers
800 to 1920, bulls $500 to

stockers $500 to So, %, feeders

feeders today at So 10. AS a
rule, packers are operating on a
close basis, but demand from
Eastern killers is good.
The hog run was liberal last
week at IS. 200 head, about of
the same volume as correspond
ing week a year ago. Buyers
for Eastern killers lent ANNA
ton to the demand. and forced
packers into greater activity,
the net result for the week be-
ing an advance of % to % cents
in prices. Run Is $1,000 head
today, market ) to 10 lower,
heavy hogs S4.65 to Sc. 724. me-
dunn weights $3.50 to Sc. 20,
lights 1928 to S6.55. pigs 81 10
to So 80. Interviews with pack
ers indicate that the East is bare
of hogs, which should insure a
good trade with killers there at
this market, and give strength
to the situation for some time
ahead.
Sheep and lambs run along
without much change in price,
supply fairly good at IL, 900 head
last week, and 1900 head here
today. Some heavy lambs from
Colorado sold at the top today,
$50, and yearlings reached s.
today, wethers SIS and ewes
s.. 30. These prices are as good
as any time recently on all class
es except ewes, which were lack
ing in quality today. Fair to
good lambs range from $500 to
S7.35. and other grades down
wards 10 to 80 cents from tops.
