The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1909-03-26
Thursdays Live Stock
Market and Sales at
Detroit Yards

Receipts OF cattle at the Detroit
stock yards on Thursday. March 20,
were fairly liberal but the demand
was too strong and prices were STEADY
with last week. All kinds OF COW stun
looked high; in fact almost too hign
when the prices at which dressed peer
is selling. Wholesalers report duil
trade, proving that the high range OF
prices is curtailing consumption.
Drovers ind good cattle very scarce
and farmers hard TO do business with.
Mich cows are dull and quiet. Not so
many veal calves came TO hand THIS
week and prices were full steady with
last week. The top for calves was
1915.
Sheep and lambs were 10 TO 20
cents higher best lambs selling for
$3.50 per cwt. Not many clipped
lambs are coming and the spread con-
tinues To be about 81 per cwt
Hogs were dull and lower In sym
patty with lower values In outside
markets. One or two choice lots
brought $3.50 but for the most part
1918 was high. Some very good mix
ed hogs brought only $685.. The pres
ent outlook favors lower prices before
long In this department.
