Weekly 51 ■ Cattle •
Compared with the previous
weeks close -
SLAUGHTER STEERS
AND HEIFERS Firm to 50
cents higher although
midweek trading somewhat
of a forced affair on meager
supplies in the face of
astagnated carcass trade.
Cows opened firm but late
trade 50-1.00 lower, bulls
steady.
Four Day Receipts 14,800
as compared 18,200 previous
week and 14,000 a year ago.
Slaughter steers ap
proximately 33 pet, heifers
30 percent, cows 15 pet, and
feeders for Friday auction 20
pet. Fed cattle prices showed
little day to day price
variation as supplies con
tinued of moderate
proportions due partially to
the press of field work under
ideal weather conditions.
This marked the fourth
successive week of relatively
stable conditions which
contributed to an orderly
marketing pattern. A fair
percentage of Choice steers
on offer but High - Choice

supply included modest
volume Choice and Prime.
