MARKET REPORT


1915. The cattle market is making
steady gains, except that heavy beef
animals remain weak. Receipts are
moderate, country buyers are sup
porting the trade extra we'll under
the circumstances, exports of beef of
all kinds are enormous, but the mar
ket responds rather feebly to favor
able influences The supply today is
5000 head, sales steady to 10 higher,
heavy beef steers selling steady, and
cows getting the full advance. Cat
tie are taking on big fills this week,
a considerable item in net returns
Several droves of choice heavy ma
tive steers sold at $500 to 1925, and
some yearlings brought S8. 40. Bulk
of the beef steers sell at 81. Is to ST. rs,
good cows $500 to $3.50, choice cows
S7.O0, most of the heifers S7.00 20
$3.50, most of the bulls S5 % to S5. 75.
Western sugar mill cattle and hay
fed cattle, and panhandle cattle have
not yet moved in very great numbers,
and a good deal of beef remains to
come this month from those scources.
Good sugar mill steers brought 81. 35
to $3.50 yesterday, and shipment of
that class brought 81 40 today, 1924
pounds average. Quarantine receipts
are light, largely meal and cake fed
Texas steers, at S6.85 to S7.35, this
week, some Oklahoma steers at Sc. .65
and Sc. 85 today, and some low grade
Arkansas stuff at IS 90 to S.. so Feed
ing steers of first quality sell at ST So
fO fnr to
day weighing 875 pounds, and some
1900 ,fieshy feeders brought $500 last
week Stock steers bring S6.75 to
S7.15. Buyers figure that these good
quality steers will grace on enough
weight during the summer to bring
their cost down to S6. 90 by fall, and
it is hardly probable that they will
sell much under 81 90, making pro-
fit on paper, even under present lack
of stimulation in the general cattle
market.
Hogs sold steady in most cases to-
day, lower on some sales to packers,
receipts 10000 bead. A local packer
paid Sc 80 for special order of $50
head of sorted hogs weighing 130 to
l60 pounds, but otherwise only few
hogs brought Sc. IS, and bulk of the
hogs sold at s6. 10 to Sc 80 The mar
ket shows considerable strength, in
spite of its failure to make decided
gains, Eastern outlet being very good
and local packers enjoying a big
trade in pork product of all kinds.
Sheep and lambs are advancing
regularly, and according to reliable
information the market will take a
big jump in the near future, lambs
at SO. so here "Wednesday being pro-
phesied today. Light receipts are
arriving at all points, including east
ern markets, and competition is de-
veloping a keen edge. Best lambs
here today brought sl010, and ewes
So, receipts $500 head Supply
sources are running dry, and two or
weeks of skyrocket markets appear to
be on the program.

POULTRY CLUBS

two different contests or projects and
each contestant is required to COM
for the final contest.

tests.
Project-Hatching largest per cent
of eggs placed under hen or in incu-
bators and saving largest per cent of
chicks Matched up to the time they.
are one month a weeks) old Each
contestant is required to set at least
15 eggs.

FEEDING AND DEVELOPING OF

Feeding and developing of
young chicks from the time they are
four weeks old until they are ready
for market or home use. Not later

entered in this contest.) Since the
question of profits enters into the
basis of award, contestants are urged
to keep in mind the young poultry
market. 1t frequently happens that
early broilers can be sold at price
which would make it improbable to
continue feeding. Each contestant,
however, is to be his own Judge as to
this. Local leaders or the judges will
take into consideration when making
awards, the weight and age of birds
marketed or used and place scale of
