Try, notably the southwest. A Minneapolis

admitted that better export bids had been
received at the seaboard and that sales

HOGS-Hog trade took a sharp shoot up
ward this morning, the advance carrying
prices even beyond those at eastern points.
II was an active, but rather uneven session
from the opening values ranging from a
dime TO OC higher than those OF yestcr-
day. In few spots the trade was posi-
blN quarter higher. extra hesvics show
ing the extreme bulge.
Keen demand from packers was largely
responsible Tor the reaction. almost all OF
fully normal supply going to killers that
operate locally. With South Omaha prices
easily on par with eastern levels, Il Is
only natural that shippers should be poor
patrons.
Heavy and heavy mixed grades were
plenutul, as usual and crowded the $500
mark. Good heavies sold around $500
I'D while rough packing offerings had To
move around S.75dLSO. Mixed medium
weights went to the scales at $500 and
better
More light animals were included in the
run than on any day recently and readily
sold at the usual premiums. Loads OF
bacon weights. known as butter balls. -
sold at as high as $40, 20c more than the
best price yesterday.
While the market has been a see-saw
affair during the four days this week. the
trade as whole shows little quotable
change. Today's advance Just about Off
sets Yesterdays break, leaving prices in
much the same notches noted last Satur-
day.
