SHEEP-Good ewes and yearlings met
with popular demand this morning and sold
at figures right around a dime higher than
those of yesterday. Wethers were scarce
and lambs held steady Total receipts were
limited, the run consisting Of lambs, sheep
and yearlings of just about equal prupor
tons.
The advance in sheep and yearlings did
not prove much OF surprise to the trade
as II was generally admitted that there
was some room for improvement between
local prices and those in force at eastern
points. Choice ewes brought as much as
1920 and prime wethers are safely quotable
at A.354440 Yearllngs, the same kind that
moved at $3.50 yesterday, went at S505. In
duiry from all quarters was reasonably
active and an early clearance was made.
Lamb trade failed TO share in improve
ment, narrow spread between local and
outside values making It easy for buyers
to keep the market under control. Strictly
choice lambs were not very plentiful and
would doubtless command 5000 The best
animals on sale brought 1856. Strings suit
