Thursdays Live Stock
Market and Sales al
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 hish
when the prices at which dressed beef
Is selling. Wholesalers report dun
trade. proving that the high range OF
prices Is curtailing consumption.
Drovers find good cattle very scarce
and farmers hard tn do business with.
Mich cows are dull and quiet. Not 30
many veal calves came To hand THIS
week and prices were full steady with
last week. The top for calves WAS
$7.75.
Sheep and lambs were Is TO 20
cents higher. best lambs selling for
$3.50 per cwt. Not many clipper
lambs are coming and the spread con
tinues to be about 81 per cwt.
Hogs were duh and lower In SYM
pathy with lower values In outIide
markets. One or two choice lots
brought $3.50 but for the most part
1915 was high. Some very good mix
ed hogs brought only $6.65. The pres
ent outlook favors lower prices before
long In this department.
Receipts. Cattle. 1856; calves, 12l;
