was the heavy buying Of stock and

week thirty thousand cattle went
to the country, and year ago same
week ninteen thousand. Rains in

supply were modest. and were borne
out by the moderate run of 1900

was ample demand here for every
thing At steady to strong prices.
Cows. heifers and calves are a little
higher today, and stockers and feed
ers are up 10 cents, which puts the
latter fully half dollar above las,

week shows that there is no exces-
sive supply Of cattle bearing on the
