Stoeker. and Feeders.

Chicago, Aug 25.-Outlook in feeders
trade for the last half of the week is
not satisfactory to the dealers who
stocked up fairy the first half. Demand
for the medium to good classes is mar
rowing down and prices have fallen
10 q Is cents under the range one week
ago. Strictly high class feeders are
only a shade low er than high time but
the pressure in general trade is Off the
steam being pretty we'll out Of the
boilers as compared with last week.
Buyers who were here carly in the
week found some desirable branded
feeders and che competition of that
class hurt the medium natives more
than any other sort. and the medium
classes have been hard going at the
lowest prices of the week thus far.
An exception to the general down
fall has been the fair little stock
heifers for which there seems to have
been better outlet than the week be-
fore. as prices for the good stock
steers reached a level that induced
buyers to take on more of the female
stuff
A strictly .oppy class Of feeders can
still be quoted up around 1915. but
sales higher than s5.o5 recently have
been few. the bulk of the business bee
ing done at S4.25@ 500 very good
class of feeders being obtanahle
around s4.65 and the $50 a 00-pound
class of stuff going largely at s4.loM
