different from last weeks close. Westerns.
especially the medium kinds were slower
sellers than the good Mexicans and few
cars had not changed hands at midday, but
while the tendency was easier and move

sirable sort. Clipped lambs which were
fairly plentiful. brought about steady prices,
Part of the offerings were Of more de.
sirable class than most of those that were
here last week. One two-csr bunch brought
a top of s1e.7o and several other loads went
at sI2.4e9i?.so.
