—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, August 2, 1975 6 Local Omaha July 31 Weekly Cattle 51 Compared with previous week’s close; slaughter steers unevenly 1.00-2.00 lower. Heifers 50-1.00 lower except good grade 1.00 to fully 2.00 lower, with weights under 900 lbs. hard to sell. Cows closed 50-1.50 lower, bulls firm. The steer and heifer trade turned downward Tuesday under influence of lower dressed beef trade. Best demand continued for limited supplies choice and prime steers 1125-1250 lbs. and heifers 950-1050 lbs. Good and low-choice steers and heifers made up much of supply as many producers continue to sell cattle rather than feed for a longer period. Four day receipts 16,100 HOG PRODUCERS!
