The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1912-01-12
THURSDAYS LIVE
STOCK MARKET

There was an active demand for
cattle at the Detroit stock yards on
Thursday and prices were higher all
along the line. A bunch OF extra cat
tie brought the high price OF the sea
son. $3.50; everything was moved up
little and the whole trade has n
healthy look. The demand for fat
cows and bulls was especially active.
Butchers were SO eager 10 get them
that feeder buyers stayed out OF the
trade and very few were taken out in
TO the country.
Mich cows were active as far as the
best were concerned, but common
cows were unstable. except to the
butcher. Veal calves were active and
higher. on the average. although the
top price was the same as last week,
1910 per cwt.
+, Sheep and lambs scored another
sensational rise. top lambs selling for
s. and the supply being far short OF
the demand. The outlook favors still
higher prices as the season grows
older, although a slight reaction in
the near future toward lower levels
would not be surprising.
! Weakness at eastern points took
part OF the bloom" out OF the hog
trade and the best that could be done
was 1925. Heavy hogs are leading
the trade, just now and buyers are
lsticklers for quality in all offerings
