Market and Sales at
Detroit Yards

The cattle trade at the Detroit yards
on Thursday was an even deal with
last week. The supply of handy
butchers cattle was not equal 10 the
demands OF the trade and everything
that showed any kill was snapped
up III short order. Mich cows were
scarce and high, the best selling
around S65 to $40 each. Veal calves
are scarce and working higher from
week to week; best calves brought
$40 per cwt.
A comparatively heavy run OF sheep
and lambs soon weakened the market
strong in the early morning and the
close was weak at lower prices thah
those that prevailed early IN the day
There was a small top on the lambs
that brought $3.50 per cwt. The bulk
OF the crop went at Sc or s625.
That hogs have been going up
little too fast, OF late, was proved by
the dizziness Of the trade and the ais
position OF the packers 10 cut prices.
The top was a trifie higher than last
week, but the average of the trade
did not vary much from last week
showing. The outlook is none TOO
good at this writing. Best hogs
brought from SO. so TO 1915. The pres
ent is very dangerous time in whicn
to do business. And country operators
will do well TO stick 10 the conserVa
tive side OF the question.
