Compared to last
slaughter steers 50 to 1.00
lower. Heifers 1 00 to 1.50
lower. Cows closed 2.50 to
5 00 lower. Bulls 3.00 lower.
Trade opened the week slow,
turned fairly active on
Wednesday An increase in
buying interest stimulated
the market somewhat,
however, the burdensome
federal inspected slaughter
coupled with the downward
movement of carcass beef
prices caused the live prices
to follow and finish the week
on a low note Weekly
