LIVE STOCK MARKET

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug. 21.-l
Liberal receipts of cattle arrived yes
terday and today, $4,000 for the two
days, and the market is holding
steady on all kinds. The distribution
as to class fits the size of the various
lines of demand better than usual
Country demand is exceptionally heavy
and a large share of the supply runs
TO unfinished animals. Killers demand
is not as keen as the country demand.
but empty coolers furnish a fairly
strong buying incetive. and the crop
is taken without haggling. Prime Mis-
souri, yearlings made $500 to-day, and
heavy steers $3.50, about as good as
the best time last week. Kansas grass
steers are q quarter lower than week
ago though some choice Greenwood
County steers brought $500 to $3.50
yesterday and to-day, other Kansas
grassers down to $6.10. Quarantine
receipts are moderate this week, and
quality is ordinary, the good steers
az $3.50 to $685., light weight common
steers at $3.50 to $3.50 Butcher stuff
finds ready sale at firm prices, and
calves are higher, Illinois buyers paid
SI.45 to $7.75 for good native feeders
weighing around 1850 pounds, to-day,
but the greatest demand from country
buyers is for stock steers, which sell
at $3.50 to $3.50. The season for heavy
supplies at Kansas City is at hand,
regardless of dry weather in fluences.
The scorched area will make itself
felt the balance of the season, whether
moisture comes now or not, in an
increased number OF feeders Offered,
and fewer beef cattle, Apparently the
demand for feeders will prove ample
TO absorb the supply, and at firm
prices. and the reduced portion of fat
cattle will tend to hold up prices for
such as get into the fat classes this
fall, Il satisfactory arrangement for
sellers, considering the adverse grass
season. Hogs have taken on new life.
Country shippers have shut off lot
of trash this week, and the reduced
supply is fairly good quality, receipts
to-day 5000, market 10 to IS higher,
with strong finish, bulk of sales
$s.25 to $685. The advance yesterday
and to-day is 80 cents, with packers
competing from the opening of the
market, in sharp contrast to their
dilatory tatics last week. Sheep and
