Fat sheep and lambs during the week
have shown a surprising disposition to part
company, The gap between the two h not
TAT from a half dollar wider than Il was
last saturday Lamo STOCK, especially, Of
ferings that bore quality labels, met with
q good, brisk demand at prices that looked
better each succeeding day. Amy single
advance did not loom up very large, and
In order to arrive at a nearby correct con-
dition OF the market, Il would be necessary
to allow a conservative discount on DAYS
when the bulge was the largest and sup
plies comparatively light. Current fat
lambs prices are n good full quarter higher
than they we're at last weeks close, and
on some Of the better grades Of young kill
vance.
Fat sheep, on the other hand. have been
doing. the bumps in a rather mild way.
and the market has not been In the best OF
condition, looking at Il from the sellers
ever, has not featured the trade as much
as the Indifferent demand. On Tuesday
when receipts were the heaviest since the
ket was glutted with wethers. packers tried
leaving the big muttons severely alone.
Despite the liberal receipts. only a normal
decline was registered and the big end OF
the killing sheep changed hands before the
close of the afternoon session. During the
balance Of the week the inquiry for fat
WtlntIS ana NeafllnBS mas Deen more OF
less inactive and the trade. as n result, has
been rather listess. As was noted yester-
day, packers have shown preference for
handyweight killers on most days Rnd
prices, II anything, have not suffered as
great a decline as the heavier kinds. The
general market on killing sheep Is about
IOpl6c lower than last saturday.
Feeder sheep have been In pretty fair
supply throughout the week; in fact, the
large bulk of Tuesdays big run consisted
OF feeder stock. Buyers were plentiful, the
demand was unusually vigorous and prices
well sustained on all classes. The mar
ket level Is fully strong will last week:
close. Supplies of feeding lambs have no
been proportionate TO the demand by any
means and the trade Is actually clamorou'
for thin lambs OF quality. Good stroni
prices are being paid. and the more desir
able grades are going into the county Al
values l5925c higher than a week ago.
Good ewes, both killers and feeders, hav,
been In very light supply and. of course
there is little actual change in values.

CHICAGO, Aug. H.-An urgent demand
for the cash grain here and additional
rains in the northwest caused strength on
the wheat market here today. Final quo
tations showed net gains OF nc to &c.
Corn, oats and provisions followed wheat
in its upward course.
Wet weather prevailed during the last
twenty-four hours in the southern sections
Of the spring wheat country, where thresh-
ing is now In progress, and rains were
also reported farther north and in Mani
toba, where harvesting has begun. These
conditions inspired active buying through
out the entire day. The market opened
strong, at gains OF hQAc to ssc and with
the exception of a dip early in the day,
due to selling by several Influential houses,
stntiment continued bullish throughout the
entire day. September ranged between
strong, at almost the highest point Of the
session, with september at 99sc.
Weather conditions were the chief fac
tor in corn and, as drouth still preYaile
in many sections of the corn belt, senti-
ment was bulllsh all day. Leading com
mission houses were free buyers the
greater part of the day. The market
closed strong, with prices hQ%c to ssQAc
above yesterdays final figures.
Delay to threshing by wet weather and
an excellent demand for the cash grain
by shippers caused strength in the oats
market. Prices at the close were %Qbc
higher.
nearly all day the market displayed con
siderable flrmness owing to buying by
local shorts and outside investors, who
bought the January products. Prices Al
the close were 2hc to zoe higher.
