Offers from producers for light type bent
were ihort of buyer needs. Seme heavy
hens traded at 17-17.50 cents for cuntent
pickup. Processors operated pan time
schedules this week, some plan to dose all
next week and others will operate three
days. Demand for canner pack product was
sufficient to clear available floor stocks at
steady prices.

Cutlets were fully adequate to ample and
trading prices continued to edge lower at a
result of % no better than fair demand and
lower trending costs of whole breasts. Rib
on and line run breasts were in closest
balance in the Delmarva region; however,
overall pipplies continued to be in excess
of -market needs. Legs were adequate
while leg quarters were in best demand and
generally no more than adequate. Wings
were a bit more available than yesterday
but confidently held at many points.

Acres Cattle Update: lw«
cattle futures ended today’s session mixed
while the feeders posted losses from 7 to
18 points. Trading throughout the session
was lackluster with prices remaining con
fined to narrow ranges. The fats lost IS
points each on the front August and Octob
er options while the remaining months
closed from 2 to 20 higher. Pressure early
in the day was in response to reports of
light fed cattle sales at lower prices with
support provided by active boxed beef
movement yesterday. End of the month
positioning was featured in advance of the
upcoming holiday. Feeder futures were
also confined to narrow ranges today with
weakness linked to profit taking. A healthy
uptick in the latest cash index price pro
vided support.
CME FEEDER CATTLE SETTLE
MENT PRICE - 6/26/89-582.47 up $ .26
ACRES NEXT DAY OUTLOOK: CASH
- steady FUTURES - steady to mixed
Acres Hog Update: Hog futures
prices settled mixed this afternoon with the
spot July closing unchanged while the
olher months settled from 2 higher to 20
lower. Pressure throughout the session was
exerted by cash market weakness. Support
was provided by the sentiment that market
ings m advance of the holiday would be
reduced along with ideas that Friday's
USDA Hog and Pig report would be sup
portive. Rumors circulated that hogs had
backed tip at the terminals after Illinois
Pork Corp. of Mommouth, 111. closed its
slaughter operations., speculation ran high
that the company had been sold or declared
bankruptcy. Bellies closed out the day
higher on a late short-covering rally. Mid
day quotes for hams were lower $l.OO to
$2.50 while loins were Sl.OO to $2.00
higher. Slaughter for today is estimated at
297,000.
