Stoeksrs and FEEDER.

The country is still showing partial
ity to the $6.0o@s.60 grades Of pretty
good to right nice $50 to S50-pound
steers and the latter price is also get
ting a fairly well-bred 900-pound
grade. tho where 1000 pound steers Of
good class are wanted such would cost
around $500 and even higher, since
they have their value as killing stun.
Demand for the plain and medium
feeders is only fairly good. The coun-
try refuses to take hold freely Of the
handy weight plain grade feeders. evil
IDENTIFY figuring that cost Of these
grades will cheaper later on in the
season, but as corn continues to grow
well and there 10 a fair amount Of
rain, which is keeping pastures in good
condition, supplies Of the light and
heavyweight feeders are apt to dwindle
and the demand grow, a situation
which would not permit OF lower
prices.
Stock heifer buyers are showing up
in fair numbers and taking the better
classes of these cattle rather freely,
paying $4.65@5 for a decent light to
pretty good feeder sort, while selected
feeding heifers have value up to s5.25.
For most Of the plain and medium
light feeders It is q s5.15@ $50 market
and light stuff at all good costs $3.50
$40. Most Of the good stock steers
are going around 5.25@s.oo and those
which can be had around $500 and
lower are of light weight and plain
class, while only common little runty
stock steer and heifer grade is avail
able below $3.50.
