The livestock market at the Detroit
yards this week was a wild trade from
start To finish, prices being higher i'm
all departments aud buyers were un.
able to get one-half-of the stock that
they needed only a little more than
one-third of the cattle received last
week made their appearance and the
quality of those ON sale was so badly
mixed that killers found il difiicult 70
shape up their droyes TO meet the
needs OF their trade
Only few handy cattle came To
hand and, like last week. che supply of
stockers and feeding cattle was 50
uneven, In respect To quality. that buy
crs dropped out of the trade and al
lowed the eager butchers TO take the
,tun at the long values which they
We're willing 80 pay.
Mich COWS were scarce and active
at unchanged prices The run or
calves did not nearly equal the he
mands OF the trade ana prices ruled
about % cents higher IMAM last Weir
| The top for calves was S9.25.
Lambs we're 80 cents higher than
last week and at that the sort was
30 easy as To add 10 to 10 cents more
10 prices. Best lambs brought S7.75.
| The outlook for lambs foreshadows
much higher prices in this department
before long
Hogs were again the leader of the
entire trade, prices averaging 20 -
~ cents higher on Thursday OF inns
week than on the same day last week.
The best brought SIS 50 and practically
nothing ranged below s., The pack
ing house contingent Is looking Tor
larger runs after the weather moder-
ates and lower prices. This is RAJ
tional view to take OF the outlook. but
40 serious break is looked for.
