KANSAS CITY MARKET REPORT

The cattle market closed last week 15 to 25 higher for the week on all kinds of cattle ex- cept heavy beef steers, and even that class sold 10 higher for the week. Stockers and feeds show ed great activity, 15,000 head going to the country, more than the total receipts of cattle last week.
 Receipts today are II, 900, mar ket strong to 10 higher, and act i've. No prime heavy steers were here today, but a good deal of beef was present, selling freely at $7.60 to $8. Buyers were out early, and took some cattle with big fills at $7.75 to S795 on the first round. Baby beef from the Panhandle sold at $8, weigh ing 800 pounds, a drove of II cars of Panhandle feeders, 968 pounds average, brought $775, a nine car drove of Oklahoma meal fed steers brought S7.55, weighing 1,125 pounds, Colorado sugar mill steers brought $7. TO to $7.95, twenty loads of north Texas silage and cake fed steers sold in the quarantine division at $6.85 to $7.50. A number of sales of both stockers and feed CTS were made at S8. Butcher grades of cattle sold actively, and higher, COWS up to S7. All around 1t was the most enthusi- astic session the cattle market has seen since February. Veal calves were the only discordant note, selling lower, good veals selling at S7.50 to $8, too many calves at.Chicago being responsi- ble for the weakness.
 Hogs sold five higher today following advances amounting to 35 to 50 cents last week, top S7 65. bulk S7 40 tO S7. so re- ceipts II, 1000. Order buyer have been setting a fast pace, and packers have kept well in line. The order buyers got one- fourth the receipts today, the smallest quota they have acQuir- ed any day in a week, the pack CTS being very anxious for hogs because of the small number they have had since Wednesday of last week. Packers are willing to participate in an advance ing market at this time, having large stocks of product to dis pose of, the same moving more advantageously on a rising hog market.
 Sheep and lambs reached new figures today, market 10 to 15 higher, receipts 1000. Top lambs sold at $10.90, bulk of the lambs around $10.50, clipped lambs $8.70, fall clipped Texas wethers $8.35, fall clipped Texas yearling $8.85. Low grade slick haired goats sold last week at $3.75, but Angora-brushers are worth $4 to $4. 50, fat Angoras $5 to $5.50, Texas muttons S6.75 $7.50, Arizona spring lambs $10 to $10.75.
