all quarters. Demand is fair with
most plants clearing product a
little better today. However, ad

and readily fares with in today’s
LTL asking price range of 48-51
cents on US grade A slaughter
schedules are heavy, live supply is
fully adequate & weights are
heavier than desired. All resulting
in additional poundage to move for
most plants. Undertone barley
steady.

Estimated 6/17 1958; Actual 6/10
1936; Actual 6/15 1877; Average
