Prices for fat cattle we're advanced
30 to 50 cents this week into a
new high POSITION for the year.
The hest grades were up the most.
although all classes were In active
dcmnfd. Decreasing supplies fat
enough Tor killers use caused the
rise In prices.
Prime yearlings. mixed ear
lines and baby hecves sold up to.
$3.50. Heavy steers brought up to
1910 ind the bulk Of the grain fat
steers brought $3.50 to 1895.
Some south Texas grass steers sold
at t135 and G.fo white some
north Texus wintered summer
grazed steers brought tS.iO.
Indications AZ that for the next
thirty days fat cattle will be scarce
and not many grass steers will be
fat enough To market. Plain short
fed steers Tint are showing grnss
zap are bringing &7.75 TO $50.
Cows are selling at s4.s0 10 $40.
Ths5e below So are sappy. Practi-
cany no u are coming In.
Helfers sold at ss.7s 20 81. The
laaf quotation Is the hlgherg OF
the year. Friday a fun had OF
200 pound veal calves sold AT $40
straight the highest price paid for
TeNaA vcaicfs this season.
The demand for stock and feed
ing cattle has been larger than the
apply. Prices ruled strong. A
good many orders were carried
ever as the right kinds were not
offered. Corn belt feeders can
use good yearlings and twos. Ora
ziers wan; the ared clnsses Of good
quality. Oood stock calves r
scarce.
Hog prices are ten to fifteen
cents higher than n week ago. Top,
sf0.sB and bulk of sales at t10.35
10 si0.5o. Choice stock pigs are
selling at 1880 to si1sh, 1.-THE
highest price this year. Prices for
sheen and lambs though higher

changed compared with n week
ago choice spring lambs would
bring tlA7A. so range spring
lambs = offered.
Tlck Campaign Distgrbs Market
one Of the situations that has
grown out Of the tick eradication
rulings In Texas has been that a
lhrre number OF common cattle
have found their way to the san
Antonio and Fort Worth markets
ana sold at such low prices that
considerable hard feeling exists
tgalnst state and federal authori-
lies. There has been a considerable
overflow to Kansas Clty and also
large shipments north out Of sec
ond-handa. Some Gamer steers at
700 to S5e pound weights sold at
$3.50 To $3.50, while Rrassers in
straight punches and fairly fat sold

strict quarantine and restrictions
OF cattle moving from unclenn
