When spreading stockpiled lime, for example. The Stoltzfus Wet Lime Spreader is likely the most powerful spreader of its kind on the market today. You see, we’ve been building them since 1945, and farmers are still using Stoltzfus Wet Lime Spreaders they’ve had for 20, even 30 years. Our special drag chain is 4 times stronger than stainless steel, and handles frozen and heavy stockpiled lime with ease. Plus for spreading compost, composted sludge, poultry litter and certain fertilizers, the WLS is without equal for sheer volume spreading. • Two-ton, five-ton, eight-ton models • PTO, 540 rpm or 1,000 rpm • Two-speed conveyor chain • Leaf spring suspension • Dual 24 ” spinners • Spreads 40' effectively • One-sided spreading capability • Truck-mounted models available Slaughter Steers Heavy supply of High Choice and Prime 2-4 1150-1490 lbs 76 75-80 50. icld Grade sor full 75 50-77 25 Choice 2-3 1070-1480 lbs 75 00-78 25 Yield Grade 4 or full 70 00 75 25 outstanding 1510 lb single 79 00 mostly Charolais with a few I imi X s 75 25 80 00. high dressing V icld Grade 1-2 78 75-79 75 Select and low Choice 2 3 1020-1495 lbs 72 25-75 50 heavyweights 1520-1600 lbs 67 00-70 25 with a few fancy 1610-1690 lbs from 66 25-71 75 Select 12 1030-1470 lbs 69 50-73 75 high dressing up to 75 50 Holstein Steers High Choice and Prime 2-3 1285 1575 lbs 64 00-69 25. couple up to 72 00 on Tucs day, couple heavy 1640-1775 lbs 64 00-67 50 Choice 2-3 1235-1605 lbs 61 25-65 00. up to 66 00 on Monday Select and low Choice 2 3 1230-1590 lbs 57 50-61 75 Select 1 2 1240-1560 lbs 5300-5800 Standard 1 2 1290 1450 lbs 47 00-51 75 Slaughter Heifers 1 ight supply of high Choice and Prime 2-3 1195-1250 lbs 7625-7675 Choice 2-3 1020-1350 lbs 7100-74 50 Yield Grade 4 or full 69 00 72 75 Few Select and low Choice 2-3 1135-1390 lbs 70 75-72 75 couple high dressing Charolais and Limi-X‘s 76 25-77 00 Slaughter Cows Breakers 70 75 Over 1400 lbs 40 00-45 00. 36 00-40 75 few fancy up to 47 00 Boners 75-80 Over 1200 lbs 37 00-40 75, 34 00-37 75 Lean (Hi- Yield) 80-85 Over 1200 lbs 35 50-40 00, 32 00-35 75 Lean 85-90 Over 1000 lbs 32 00-36 75, 29 00-33 00 Lean (Light-Wt) 85-90 750-1000 lbs 29 00-33 00, 24 50-30 00 Slaughter Bulls Yield Grade 1 1045-2195 lbs 4600-55 50, few fancier up to 57 75 Yield Grade 2 1155-2360 lbs 45 00-48 75, low dressing 4100-44 00 Few Bullocks Select 1-2 975-1245 lbs 54 00-59 00 Calf summary Compared to last week, slaughter calves sold fully steady Holstein bull calves suitable for special-fed veal bams kicked off the week trading weak to sharply lower However, someone poured gas all over the late week demand and through a match on it as prices were sharply higher The 90-125 lb bulls had been trading in the 110 00-ISOOO range, until Thursdays run where thev sold from 150 00-205 00 The Holstein heifer supplies are not near as heavy as they were only a couple short months age However with prices for the fancier 90-125 pounders dipping into the mid to upper 100 00 range, many producers arc reluctant to bring them to town The heifers tested this week sold with a lower undertone This week the PA Department of Agriculture graded 1024 head of calves for the two graded sales held m Coun ty Slaughter Calves Utility 60-110 lbs 12 00-30 00, cou ple 32 00-MOO Calves going into special-fed veal bams Monday Holstein Bulls 90-125 lbs 115 00-143 00 80-85 lbs 11000-12000 Plainer-type Bulls 90-125 lbs 95 00 127 00 Weaker Bulls 95-125 lbs 75 00-80 00 Tuesday- Graded Number One Holstein Bulls 90-125 lbs 115 00-157 00, package 85 lbs 140 00, pack age 80 lbs 100 00 Graded N. mber Two Holstein Bulls 90-125 lbs 90 00-132 00 two lots 84 lbs 8000 Graded Number One Holstein Heifers 90 115 lbs 235 00-28000 Graded Number Two Holstein Heifers 90 110 lbs 175 00 230 00, package 84 lbs 190 00, pack- 1-800-843-8731 STOLTZFUS Morgan Way, P.O.
