THURSDAYS LIVE
STOCK MARKET


~ Prime steers were active at the
Detroit stock yards ON Thursday and
prices were strong with last weeks
trade. All other grades OF cattle were
lower Common cows and bulls were
dull and hard TO sell, values for this
kind being fully 20 cents per cwt.
<,ower than last week. The demand
for stockers and feeders was not much
in evidence, very few buyers from the
country making their appearance. In
some manner. the report has gone out
SHAT farmers would no longer be
allowed 10 drive out cattle as here
tofore and the trade is suffering as
result. Stocker and feeder cattle
are being driven out OF the yards
every week without any hindrance be
ing offered by the city police or any
one else. Farmers. from the district
surrounding Detroit are always well
coined at the Detroit stock yards and
nearly always receive the most cour-
teous treatment when they come.
The sheep and lamb trade was ac-
tive and higher from start TO finish
Aand prices were 20 TO 40 cents higher
for lambs A. large number OF lambs
brought So and one or two sales were
made at 500. The outlook for lambs
fayors still higher prices as the sea-
son advances.
