lower. Cows 3.00-3.50 higher. Bulls
1.00-2.00 higher.
Four day receipts 13,550, ,last
week 12,275, year ago 15,150.
A. liberal Tuesday run coupled
with a declining beef trade to
precipitate one of the widest
weekly downturns in recent
sessions. Demand by some in
terests onlv moderate: due par
tially to the influences of a sluggish
boxed beef trade and a slaughter
rate which, through midweek, was
standing 5 pet larger than a week
ago. Best interest again centered
on cattle producing yield grade 2-3
carcasses; while offerings
displaying yield grade 4-5
characteristics were, at times,
sharly discounted.
Steers made up 50 pet of week’s
receipts;. Heifers 28 pet; Cows 7
pet; Feeders 12 pet. ■
