tone inhogs today and good demand
provided an outlet for the bulk at
steady to strong prices.
Eleven markets received las, 100 hogs
Monday. or 1900 more than last Mon
day, $1,000 NOR than year ages and
aO.70O more than two years ago. Chi
cago was the only western market that
had more hogs than week ago. while
most of the eastern markets showed
increase in receipts. Total for 1911
to date 24,065, 900 or 5,s7s.o00 more than
the same period in 1910 and 100000
more than the corresponding time in
1909.
Packers are making the best Of an
agreeable situation in hog trade.
The big runs naturally are pleasing
to them at this time. There is reason
ably good demand for the fresh pork
meats. and heavy supply should
mean moderate profit to them.
Meantime the producer. having TO
foot big feed bill, since corn is high,
seems inclined to sell off his hogs
about as fast as they are ready for
market.
Evidently the farmer does not give
the loss of a big share of the pig crop
the consideration ii should have az al
fecting future supplies.
That the crop for future markets Will
be smaller than many expevt seems
certain. The packers are buying hogs
at rela lively cheap prices, but just how
long it will be before the market be-
gins to work the other way is matter
affording considerable speculation The
packing industry will need lot Of
hogs in the next two months, but
thereafter big runs can hardly be
looked for in the light Of present sup
ply conditions over the corn belt. That
a fair guess.
Cattle were inactive. Request and
values were maintained on an I'M
changed basis.
High prices paid here last week for
sort-fed cattle were an alluring bait
to owners of such and they flooded
the market Monday with a run that
swelled up close to 81 900 head, or about
1000 above the estimate that was
| most popular with traders here late
last week. Buyers were in position to
take advantage Of the big supply and
big operators on the local market took
their time at getting into the trade
Hardly any buying at all had been
done en- big packing account up to II
o'clock Such bids as had been made
on that account were generally big
25 cents lower than the reduced prices
noted here late last week, only the
loads of steers suited to special ship
| ping orders that could be got of early
escaping with a decline of only abou,
| 10 cents. =
| Local and outside buyers had the
same explanation of their inactivity
Everything is clogged up with beef
from the big buying of last week an
! this run is 40 per cent larger thanewns
/ warranted at the opening of the weet
/ before Christmas. Markets all over the
country are filed up with poultry anc
| game for the holiday trade" ~
| Poultry competition is going to be &
| strong factor in beef trade from nov
on until after the opening Of the new
year, and after the excessive Monday
run it will be an unwise policy 10:
country shippers to again unload freely
later this week.
