MARKET REPORT.
to VU MOOBD.
Kansas City Stock Yards.
Dec. 21, 1914.
Thursday and Friday there
were signs of life in the cattle
market, and an adequate test
would have shown a slight ad-
vance. Today receipts are light
at all points, 7000 head here, and
the market is strong to IS high-
er on killing grades of cattle
than the low point of the recent
15, said to be 40 cents higher
than last Thursday. The killers
would have bought these cattle
today at the price.
Hogs have been selling close
to steady for several days. The
market opened 5 lower today,
but the finish was steady to
strong. This has been the
course of the market each day
for a week, indicating latent
strength. Chicago has had too
many hogs, and prices there are
break, stockers and feeders 15 to at present slightly lower than
25 higher. The capacity of the I prices here. Top here today is
market for fat cattle will be lim-j $7.20, bulk of sales $6.95 to $7.-
ited this week and next, and if j 15. Receipts are running rather
there is any advance - it will be light, except out of recently
because the run is light. Poul-'quarantined districts, and the
try is now having its inning.
Commission men say theie will
be a fair run of fat cattle in Jan-
uary, in which event there will
not be much of an advance in
prices. After January the run
will drop off, according to au-
thorities, and there will be a rise
in prices. At the oil mills there
are fewer cattle on feed than last
year, but the Texas mills expect
to put many more cattle oa feed,
and will eventually exceed last
year's feeding, provided they can
get the cattle. A feature here
last week was the purchase of
several trains of feeding cattle
to go to Oklahoma, buyers being
forced by lack of cattle in Texas
to change their usual custom of
buying there. Short fed cattle
are coming. Some near prime
steer* had a bid of $9.50 here last
Tuesday, were sent to St. Louis
and had to sell there at $9.
of a better market sold lower at
destination than bids here. Top
quarantine steers today brought
$7, Oklahoma steers weighing
10^4 lbs. Bulk of stockers and
feeders sell at $6.75 to $7.65, one
drove of 1100-lb. feeders today
choice fleshy white faces, at $8.-
market has probably touched low
