A fairly active trade on all slaughter classes of cattle in today’s eleanup trade held values locally at the week’s previous advance, according to the Bureau of Agricultural Economics.’ ; Cows again were best property from a selling viewpoint and are closing around 25 cents higher than
a week ago. The odd and end run |g
of steers and ‘yearlings hardly offered a test, $6.50 to $7.75 taking the handful. Some medium heifers, most all too heavy for the demand, ranged from $6 to $7. Beef cows bulked at $5.25 to $5.75 good grainfeds scarce and quotable higher, while cutter grades made $4 to $5, a few $5.25. ‘Top sausage bulls
and weighty fat bulls will command $6.50, ‘yearlings higher.
Vealers continued where they left | ¢
off late Thursday which is 50 cents lower than early that day. The top rested at $11.50, bulk good and choice $10.50 to $11.50. In the most uneven trade in months, hogs scaling over 200 pounds sold 5 cents to mostly 10 cents higher, with lightweights unevenly steady to 35 cents lower except. 130 to 140-pounders which were 15 cents higher. light lights moved on several different schedules, according to outlet, demand being narrow on both shipper and local killer account.
Best 160 to 200-pound averages took | &
top money of $9.40. Packing sows were steady to weak at $7 to $7.75, with the top $8. a steady trade, finished western and choice native lambs cashed at $8.50, with other good to choice at $8 to $8.25, and lower grades
