CATTLE SLIGHTLY
HIGHER THIS WEEK
Hogs Are Significantly Strong
Sheep Market Also Shows Some
Strength.

The cattle market is holding steady
TO strong at last weeks prices, al
though one load of extra prime steers
sold at S6.S5, a dime higher than last
week, says the Portland Live Stock
Reporter Monday. Best COWS and heif-
ers are just easy at last weeks quo
tations. There is a big run of feeder
stuff in the yard with indications that
they will be cleaned up at a very good
figure.
Top hogs maintained a level of 1925
all last week and the general feeling
was that good run of hogs this
morning would break the market a
shade. However, the market still re-
mains strong at 1925, with three ex-
ira choice loads selling at $685.;
everything in the hog division clean
up early. The maintenance of the
market at a level of 1926 for practi-
cally ten days indicates a great deal
of strength for this time of the year
