Market and Sales at
Detroit Yards

All grades OF cattle were active and
steady at the Detroit yards on Thurs
day. Very seldom in the past have
beef cattle been so scarce and high
in the month of June and the first half
OF july. A lighter run OF grass cattle
than was looked for, and the ex-
tremely high prices at which all other
kinds OF dressed meat Is selling, are
Jointly responsible for this condition
OF things. Larger arrivals OF grass
cattle are expected soon In the Dig
western markets and somewhat lower
prices will result The run or calves
this week at the Detroit yards is small
or than for long time and prices
were marked up 80 cents per cwt.
In the sheep yards things were bad

best bringing $3.50. Yearlings and all
other grades OF sheep were about 80
cents lower. Tie time has come for
the spring lamb and his older brother
the yearling. To part company; the
lamb fiction will hardly go any longer
in connection with lightweight year
lings. Lambs sell on their merits,
and with the yearlings out. current ar.
