Omaha Cattle
Thursday, October 14
Compared with last weeks
close closing prices slaughter
steers steady to 25c lower,
many late sales Choice steady
to weak. Heifers strong to 25c
higher under good demand.
Cows fully steady although late
demand not particularly aggres
sive. Bulls firm. Feeder cattle
and calves steady to weak with
limited attendance farmer buy
ers early.
Four day receipts 20,200 as
compared 19,100 previous week
and 23,000 a year ago. Slaugh
ter steers approximately 36 per
cent, heifers 32 percent, cows
9 percent, and feeders 20 per
cent. Two-way trend emerges in
fed cattle trade as prices on
slaughter steers forced slightly
downward under influence of
bearish early carcass trade but
heifer prices edged cautiously
upward.
Marketings fairly well distri
buted over trading period and
good demand for cattle to be
slaughtered at points outside
immediate Omaha area. Overall
finish fairly attractive with a
liberal percentage Choice and a
moderate volume High Choice
and Prime. Average weight of
slaughter steers has increased
