March 30.- Withthis morning's cattle offering limited to seventeen hundred head, sellers thought it a good opportunity to boost prices. On the - other hand buyers who are not over- anxious these days when the wholesale trade is so bad to purchase more than sufficient to meet immediate needs, attempted to cut prices. The result was a very draggy mark- et which closed with several loads of cattle unsold. For the most part trade was just a trifle stronger than at the week end. One buyer was about right when he summed up bossiness as "steady to strong." A few baby beeves which J. B. Shields and Son sold at 14 cents, several Iight to handy weight steers disposed of by the United Farmers at from 313.50 to .313.75, a few steers which Dunn and Levack cashed in at from 313.25 to 513.50, about represented the pick of the market. A. big •percentage. of the cattle found prices between $10 and 311.50 and a smal- ler percentage from $11.50 to 512.50. The market for cows was not in . any better shape, and outside kosher stuff 11 cents per pound bought the best cows pen- ned. Bulls continued a slow trade. The light consignment curtailed business in the stocker section, but the few loads ship- ped out showed values steady. -Good milkers and springers were wanted. Small meats were steady, notwithstanding that all told only sixty-six head of sheep and lambs were forward, Calves were a heavier consignment and best reals sold from $20 to $20.541 in spots, and a few extra choice Easter- trade veals cashed in from $28 to $25., "Bob" calves are becoming -too numerous and, a drag on the market; good weals are wanted. Packer -buyers refused more than $17.75 f. o. b. for hogs loaded on Saturday, a cut of 60 cents on last week's closing price. Drovers declined to submit to the sauriflee and no price was agreed upon. At the close there was a feeling that $18 f. o. b. might be the ultimate price. The receipts were 112 carloads, with 1,730 cattle, 777 calves, 1,732 hogs and 66 sheep and lambs. McDonald and Halligan sold: Butchers - 16, 900 lbs. 311.75; 11, 770 lbs. 510.50; 3, 740 lbs. 58. Cows -2. 940 lbs. 311; 1, 1,300 lbs. $9.75.
