For more than 10 days past the
leading livestock markets OF the
country have been overrun with
cattle OF all kinds. except mich
cows and veal calves. Dry pastures
and highpriced grain are the In
nuences that are Cutting the mar
ket with cattle and incidentally
shading values materially. Good
judges OF conditions predict that
there will be no let up in supplies
for the next 90 days The trade
has been greatly surprised at the
number OF heavy steers that have
made their appearance during the
current month. The bloom is on
tho trade in this department. and
prices are 80 10 80 cents lower than
at this time last month.
The grass cattle brigade is on
the move In good earnest ana all
western markets have been well
supplied with rangers. which nearly
always outsell natives OF similar
quality AT this season. The trade In
butchers cattle slumped badly last
week In all markets, but shippers
held them back early this week and
values recovered part OF the loss.
The northwest is gathering cattle
rapidly and the southwest Is play
ing a good second. Right In the
face OF these big cattle supplies.
killers in all parts or the country
fnd themselves hRmpered by the
lack OF efficient help, and, as a re-
suit, no attempt is made 20 clean
up the market from day 10 day.
The demand for feeding cattle Is
at low ebb but reports show that
not many stockers and feeders arc
coming forward az this time. A
few loads OF extra heavy Montana
cattle have reached Chicago OF late
and have found a splendid market
because OF their outstanding quality
Demand for s,ockers and feeders
is al low ebb in all markets. but
this fact does not prove that the
farmers OF the country do not care
to buy cattle AZ this time. but rath.
or that they are playing FOR still
lower prices. which they argue must
come very soon Good large-bodied
mich cows are selling for high
prices. provided they are not TOO
far along In he tactical period.
