railrOad labor board, instead of trying to
ignore that body.

LIVE STOCK MARKET

Among the outstanding develop
ments N the livestock trade of the
week have been a liberal increase n
supply Of hogs and a corresponding
enlargement in the demand, a weak
to lower fat cattle trade, a $3.50 break
in veal prices and a declining lamb
trade but an advancing tendency in
old sheep, narrowing the gap between
the two classes. The bigger run OF
hogs have been purchased freely and
undertone to the market is healthy,
with bulk at the close of the week
at $9.O009.25, or practically the same
as a week ago. Pigs topped at $3.50.
Fat lambs dropped 25c to soc at the
weeks opening, with good to choice
fat lambs quotable from $10.00Q10.75.
Fat ewes closed higher, however, some
prime 1%10-pound fed westerns topping
late Friday at S5.75. with good natives
at $4.5OQ475, and fed yearling ewes
at $6.5O@7OO.
Dressed beef trade in the east
showed a weak and declining tendency
during the week, and with increased
~marketings of cattle on opening days
of the week, the market started on a
sc to soc lower basis. A little recOv-
cry has been made in steers, however,
and this class closed weak to 25c
lower, as did and cutters,
while butcher COWS and heifers showed
the full break noted early. Best steers
sold this week were some 13S0-pOund
offerings on the choice order at 1915.
A load or two cashed at $S.75, but COM
paratively few sold above $500, with
bulk of the common kinds at $3.50
100. Odd lots of COWS and heifers sold
from $3.50 07.50, with bulk Of sales at
$4.0006.00, and Gamer and cutters
largely at s2.75@3.75. An occasional
butcher bull brought from $6,00@6.50,
with %bolognas quotable from $4,000
900, bulk selling from $5.00@5.50.
Veal calves broke $3.50, with closing
top at $500. Weightier kinds of
stockers and feeders selling from $3.50
@7.50 are about steady for the week,
while lighter weights selling largely
from $4.5O@6.50 are strong to Csc
higher.
