moderate increase in supplies this
k has been in a measure RESPONSE
for lower average of values, the
inc amounting to about 15@20c.
nand has been rather Indifferent as
local packers and shippers are
arent!y waiting for the expected
Wy run this winter. Buyers have
been paying much attention to
ght OF late and heavy hogs that
the quality and finish have COM
ded the top figures although, as
al, the desirable light and butcher
des have had a shade the best of il
i along. Country shippers are evil
fly in no hurry to cash in their
crop and buyers think they car
I'd to wait while longer so that
outlook is very uncertain at this
e. The following table shows the
