PRICES FOR HOGS
GAIN 10 CENTS
Some Strength Shown on
Better Market.


The market was more settled and
hogs regained a part Of their strength
and sold 10 cents higher III trading
at the local livestock yards today. Bulk
Of the sales was made at $3.50. as
compared to Thursdays price Of $3.50
and that Of $7.45 at which a few head
moved. the lowest mark in the past
several weeks. Trading was Of the
more active variety than on Thursc.
day, and in the face Of slightly larger
receipts the yards bid fair TO be
rather well cleared on the early mar
ket. The increase in price was due
to a number of shipping orders and
the activity Of local packers. A
rather large number Of quality hogs
were in the yards and several lots OF
these commanded a top figure of $3.50.
Trading from the start today was
hardly in line with Thursdays poor
close and unsettled trading when
there was nearly 1000 hogs left I'M
sold. Good smooth packing sows were
bringing S6.75, however. and the bulk
Of this class moved at $500 and $685.,
with the poor quality selling down ac-
cordingly. Pigs We're slow sale and
few were bought early They sold
down from ST. Number Of hogs was
estimated at 10000, inclusive of $50
carry-overs.
Cattle held rather steady although
the market is believed that ten to
twenty-five cents lower In some
classes than that Of week ago. The
demand for the choice kind of steers
is holding good with a top figure at
$1l. However demand for the ordin-
airy variety is rather weak and trading
is OF a spotted character, the price
ruling ten to twenty-five cents lower
Thursdays market was very weak at
the start and an attempt was made
TO hammer the price down further
but a better close kept the market
generally steady on about ten-cent
lower price. Due to large receipts
of heifers this class of stock is in weak
demand at twenty-five cents lower and
ii takes the choice baby beef type to
bring the top Of $3.50. Cows held up
better than the other classes except
choice steers.
The calf market was steady to
stronger with the bulk selling at SIf
TO s11.50 and a few choice drivensin
veals bringing $12. The demand for
veal is still rather poor as it has been
this week and the market as a whole
not very active. Calves in the pens,
600. >r.
Sheep and lambs sold generally
steady with Thursday. Good sheep
were selling at 81 down and $16.75
was offered for the fall variety of
lambs. Spring lambs were selling
good at $40 to s21. Receipts. 800
