Market and Sales at
Detroit Yards

The activity OF the cattle trade at
the Detroit stock yards on Thursday
was considered remarkable after the
recent dizziness following the first APP
pearance OF grass cattle. Conditions
are not much different from those or
other years, however, excepting the
fact that the scarcity OF really fat cat
tie Is more marked than has been tae
average OF other years. the cause or
this situation Is not far to seek. Ere
quent rains since spring opened have
made the grass SO siushy and lack
ing in nutritive qualities that the beer
afforded by 'grass-fat" cattle Will not
harden in the cooler or stand up on
the block. Tidy killing cattle that have
had some grain are sure TO sell well
FOR the next 90 days. Mich cows are
quiet owing TO the downward tendency
Of butter. Veal calves are higher, with
the best selling at 1915.
Sheep and lambs were active and
steady under disappointingly small re-
ceipts. A few extra fine yearl!ng
lambs sold for $500 to sS75. The
spring lambs on sale brought from s.
TO 81 per cwt. All lambs that are
ready TO go should be marketed
promptly.
The hog trade took sharp upturn
this week, the best selling for 1910
The quality was only fair The mar
ket looks strong and even money again
al Detroit would not be surprising
