Kansas City Stock Yards Monday
Aug 12 — Total cattle receipts drop-
ped to 10000 bead today lightest Mon-
day run in two months market 25 to
50 higher than Friday 50c to $100
above low time last week best steers
here $1815 Hogs today 7000 mar-
ket strong to 25 higher top $1960
bulk of sales $18 to $1925 Sheep to-
day 4000 choice range lambs at $1775
fat ewes $1365
Most of the strength since the mid-
dle of last week came from feeder
buyers although packers showed more
interest today and took all the fleshy
steers Good corn-fed steers sold up
to $1815 with prime steers worth
$1850 best Kansas grass steers here
$1725 The government hgs cut out
meatless days and requested that do-
mestic consumption be restricted to
light weight carcasses Action is ex-
pected in congress today on the prop-
osition of reducing army beet carcass
limit to 400 lbs and if this is favor-
ably considered it will be a big booBt
for cattlemen everywhere Cows have
taken the full advance since last week
PriceB on all grades are now netting
a profit to most grazers and feeders
Big shipments of Stockers and feed-
ers went to the country Wednesday
and thereafter last week including 100
carloads sent out Sunday More buy-
ers are here today than can get cattle
and they are remaining over till later
in the week Their presence raises
the morale of the whole cattle mar-
ket Feeders sold up to $1650 Stock-
ers mostly $8 to $12
Order buyers and speculators paid
up to $1960 on the early market but
packers were obstinate and bought
little before noon However they fin-
ally cleaned up the supply at strong
to 25 higher prices paying $19 to
$1925 for fair to good hogs Consid-
erable common stuff was included and
held over hence the wide range in
bulk of sales Best hogs sold at $1910
Stock pigs sold 50 higher today ’best
at $1775 Hog receipts are running
light and a strong advance in prices
is expected this week
The market had its first chance this
season today to extend itself when
3 cars of choice Colorados from Glen-
wood Springs came in the fat lambs
selling at $1775 fat ewes $1365 Best
native lambs lack quality and sell at
$1650 to $1725 and fat native ewes
sell up to $13 Feeding lambs have
been selling at $16 to $17 with choice
westerns worth more than that
