Eair run of cattle in yards this week: i 1
assortment better than usual f<>r this sea- ’
son of the j ear. Several loads of light : 1
fed steers were among the week’s re
ceipts. w hich were sold readily and j 1
brought good prices.
Medium and light steers ami good but< -
er cows ami heifers were also in good de- j'
mand and ruled steady. Plain cattle were;
I hard to sell, although prices sagged in lids I
class, buyers preferring the better grades P
at correspondingly higher prices.
The market generally is vmtKdered l
steady on the better weights and grades, 1 '
quality and condition being most consid- j J
ered by the buyers. Medium aml plain I ,
kinds are barely steady to a quarter lower . ’
than a week ago.
Hogs continue to come freely , although
were short for a couple of days during (
Christmas week. Prices have ranged '
about steady to a shade higher. Demand
good.

now more than a half million more than '

1 eally in the next two months. The in- I
| liu-eni nts for importation during the past

pipelining markets, enormous crop esti
' mates and a general belief in lower values,
which delayed the acquisition of stock, ’
whereas, this year belief in a small crop, |
fear of competition for the raw mate
rial and rapidly advancing markets have
stimulated an early provision of stock.
The general buying and large exports
■ last year did not set in until about this
i time, and the export movement assumed
, very large proportions by January ami
February. Statistical comparisons,
! therefore, are to be less flattering during
