THURSDAYS LIVE
STOCK MARKET

Il
The cattle trade was active and
steady at the Detroit stock yards on
Thursday. and everything was sold
as fast as II was unloaded. The sup
ply OF handy cattle was not nearly
equal to the demand, and many buy
ers left the yards without securing
the cattle needed to supply his re-
quirements. The Gamer trade was
strong and all grades of killing cows
sold promptly at top quotations for
the season. Mich cows were active
under high butter prices. Veal calves
were about so cents lower than the
trade Of the last two weeks, the best
selling for $3.50 per cwt.
Sheep and lambs were 20 to 30
cents lower than last weeks range,
the best selling for $3.50. The run OF
sheep and lambs larger than was ex-
pected but everything cleaned up
promptly at the decline.
Large arrivals of hogs in western
markets prevents a rise In prices
which would otherwise certainly re-
suit from the strong demand which ex-
lists for all kinds Of fresh and cured
pork products. This weeks range OF
prices here in Detroit averaged with
those paid last week Best grades,
