The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1910-07-29
Thursdays Live Stock
harket and Sales at
Detroit Yards

Cattle made a new low record al
the Detroit stock yards on Thursday
prices ranging from 20 to 40 cents
lower than last week, and the trade
being dull and lifeless at the decline,
Detroit is beginning to feel the effect
of large receipts OF grass cattle In
all markets and prices are tumbiing
like q house of cards. The demanc
for stockers and feeders has beeI,
somewhat improved by recent rains
which have frightened the pastures.
Mich cows are dull and slow. Veal
calves hold their own fairly well, the
best selling for 1896 this week.
The run OF sheep and lambs was not
nearly equal to the needs OF the trade
and prices for the latter were a triiie
higher than those paid last week. A
few prime lambs sold for 81. A good
ly number Of lambs sold at So and a
little above that would have hardly
beaten $3.50 last week. An improved
demand for wool Is helping the sheep
trade.
Hogs were dull, but about steady
with last week. The best brought 50
per cwt. Heavy hogs sold from $3.50
to 1915 per cwt.
Receipts: Cattle, 1878: calves, 1928;
sheep, 1895; hogs. alta.
