ered in inspected plants was 505.6
lbs, for the year, nearly eleven
pounds more than a year earlier

pastures and plentiful feed were
evident in the heavier weights and
better finish of the cattle market-
ed. The percentage of Grade A

tween $19 and $20. The U.S. mar-
ket moved up sharply during this
period and slaughter cattle com-
menced to move southward in May,

ter steers dropped to $17-18 brack-
ets in October - November when
marketings were at peak levels,

cember and finished the year near

wally strong levels during the fall
period of heavy marketings and

than in the previous year, good
steers averaging $16.75 for all mar-
kets. The improvement in stocic
calf prices was even more pro- (
nounced with the year's average at
$17.15, up $1.65, The average of 4
all cattle at eleven markets was
up 40c at $14,65 cwt. The all mar-
kets' average for the nine per cent
smaller hog output was $29.70 for

cents.
