Thursdays Live Stock
Market and Sales at
Detroit Yards

Tho slide" is on in the cattle trade
md much lower prices for grassy
btock are not far away. Prime steers
we're about steady at the Detroit
ards on Thursday, but all kinds of
common cattle were dull and animals
hat show signs OF having been fed
largely on grass were 10 TO 20 cents
BIZ from last week. The quality was
not nearly as good as last week, only
few finished cattle making their ap-
bearance. Common cows were much
over and slow sale at the decline;
bill grades OF COW stun have shown ex-
Fremely low dressing percentages, 80
FAR this spring owing to the splendid
hll which they take just before weigh
Ing Mich cows were active and
steady, but veal calves felt the dull
ness in other lines and prices were
from 80 TO 70 cents per cwt lower.
Sheep and lambs were active and
steady with hardly enough stock on
sale TO meet the pressing demands OF
the trade Spring lambs were In fair'
by liberal supply and prices averaged
better than has been the rule or late.
The present Is the best time to send
FORWARD good spring lambs as TINS
class OF stock belongs almost exclu-
siveiy TO the June trade up here In
our northern markets.
Finished hogs were active and
steady, but all others were weak and
lower. One extra fine bunch, weigh
ing 220 pounds brought $3.50, record
price for the current year in this mar
ket Aside from the sale mentioned
above $3.50 was high and II took
something pretty good to command
that price. Pigs were worth from
$675 to s6.s5 per cwt. Receipts: Cat
tie, S12: calves, 1,347; sheep, l,57o;
hogs. 1884.
