CATTLE--As usual ON Saturday there
were only a few cattle here and they SOLO
at prices not materially different trom
Friday, but around l00rl5c better than the
close of last week. Receipts this week
have been rather liberal IN spite OF the
rough weather, some 2S,6OO head showing
up for the six days which Is about l,OOO
less than last week, but 1000 more than
"a year ago. The market has been very
uneven partly owing to the bad weather
and partly owing to unusual conditions
existing in the east. Undertone to the
trade, however,, has been fairly healthy
throughout and both beef steers and
butcher stock have found free outlet
right along until the last day or two
when the difficulty experienced by pack
ers In securing refrigerator cars has
slowed up the demand somewhat
In stockers and feeders business mas
been unusually brisk for this season OF
the year and the volume of business quite
large with prices tending stronger on
practically all grades. The recent Inn
provement In the fat cattle market has
vival of interest on the part of the coun-
try in stock cattle and feeding steers.
