in many weeks. At midday nearly
$4,000. 900 worth had changed hands

fresh public buying, attracted by the
previous days gains, on the other.

Trading Has Slow and Un-
settled Start.

Despite the fact that many large
buyers attempted to trim prices, hog
trading was accomplished on a steady
to sc higher basis at the local live
stock yards today. The market was
delayed in starting, sellers feeling that
prices should continue steady in the
face of higher quotations from outside
markets and ordinary local receipts
and buyers Offering under the steady
price. However, one large dealer put
600 hogs on the market early at
$40, the top price of the day, and
Kingan entered into the buying, TAX
ing 200 at $765 and 500 at $3.50.
Bulk of the offerings then moved at
s7.65 as compared to Thursdays one
price Of $765, although quite a few
lots were sold at $3.50. making the
market SC higher in places and sc
lower in spots. Demand from all
sources promised great enough 20
