WASHINGTON. d. C.. March sS.+
Perhaps the most striking feature Of
movements of live stock through
public markets during February was'
the marked increase in shipments of
stocker and feeder animals back To
the country for finishing. Such
movements of each of the three most
'imnortant classes OF live stock were
not only greater than during the cor
responding month OF 1891. but In
each instance they exceeded the s.
year February average.
The greatest increase occurred in
sheep and lambs. In that division
stockers and feeder shipments for the
month increased nearly 100000 head,
or 173.5 percent over February :.

greater than the 5-year average. In
a word, stocker and feeder ship

February in the past seven years.
In the case of cattle and calves,
