Kansas City Stock Yards, Dec. 10
1.-The cattle market last week ended up
in much better shape than 1t looked
the first of the week, and early losses
lwere almost entirely regained on
everything. Receipts dropped off, and
packers suddenly discovered that beef
is about the cheapest kind of meat
going, and that it is having big out
let on that account. They have allow
ed the notion to prevail that coolers
were full, but their buying lately does
not bear this out. Poultry and game
are higher priced than beef this time,
and will cut into meat sales less than
usual at Christmas time. Beef steers
are now down to figure that inter
ests exporters, who can operate at a
profit when good fat steers can be
bought at $3.50 to $5.75. Eastern kill
ers have been very active for some
time past, and the general complexion
of the cattle trade changed good
deal for the better last week. The light
run of 10000 head here today, moder-
ate elsewhere, is more good medicine,
and prices on steers today are mostly
15 higher. cows and heifers steady to
10 higher, stockers and feeders 10 to
Is higher Most of the crop of long
fed steers, the kind that cost big money
when going into feed lots, is said TO
have been marketed now, and from
now on the stuff marketed can be fig
Iured on a different basis, and will be-
gin to show profit, which will incline
toward more astute marketing, and a
better average market, with fewer
sacrifices. Top price today was paid |
for quarantine yearlings from Chick |
asha, Oklahoma, $3.50. heavy natives
up to $625, bulk of steers $525 to |
$500, heavy cows up to $500, heifers
$3.50, bulls $3.50 to s475, top veals
$500, stock steers S400 to 1925 feed
ers $4.25 to $5.35.
Hog prices were uneven last week,
but the net result was an advance of
10 cents for the week Run was 81 900 |
head, gain of 10000 over previous
week. Shippers bought freely, and
packers found themselves in a hole at
different times during the week. This
made competition keen at times, and
some big changes in the market took
place Run today is 5000, market 5
higher, with practically everything sell
ing within the ten cent range from
$755 to $765, the latter the top price
paid for all weights.
Sheep and lambs sold highest at the
middle of the week, and eased off Is
