Four Day Receipts
Last Week
Year Ago
A good demand by most interests
held prices at steady levels
through Monday and Tuesday, in
spite of a 29 pet. increase in salable
numbers compared to a week ago.
Although the dressed beef trade
depreciated at midweek, buyers
were forced to compete
aggressively for the reduced
Wednesday offerings, pushing the
market higher for the week.
Overall finish for the session fair
on steers, but just ordinary on
heifers. Steers made up 40 pet of 4
day receipts, heifers 29 pet, cows 9
pet., feeders 19 pet.
