D. McTavish & Sons, Fiesherton Live Report Stock (By Dunn & Levacli) Almost 5,000 c«ttle arrived for Monday'8 market, and although the market opened slow, prices held up well on cattle of choice quality. Some demand for weighty steers for export overseas was helpful in holding pri- ces about steady on that class, while choice butcher cattle and cow.^ .sold well for this time of the year. Lambs were steady, while calves were high- er. Hogs showed considerable strength on Monday and were from 10 to 25 cts. higher t+ian a week ago. Choice heavy steers brought 6.50, t'uir to good 0.00 to C.40, common to nieiliuni 5.00 to 5.75. Choice butchers .stceis and heifers sold at from 6.00 to 6.50, fair to good 5.50 to 6.00, com- mon to niMlium 4.50 to 5.25. Choice baby beeves were steady lat from .-,.00 to S.50, but those of medium quality casiui- at from Ci.SO to 7.50, .Selected slocker.s were in .strong de- ni'ind at from 5.00 to 5.50. medium 4..'i0 to 5.00, common 4.00 to 4.40. The c(iw market wa.s active and steady, choice fat cows from 4.50 to 5.00, with fhoice heifery kind at 5.25. fair to good butcher cows from 4.00 to 4.50, common to medium .'{.00 to 3.75, can- niTs and cutters 2.75 to 3.00. Good weighty bulls were steady at from 4.75 to 5.00, these weighing around 1200 pounds 3.75 to 4.00, common light bulls 3.25 to 3.50. The lamb market was active and steady at 8.85 for choice kind. Sheep were steady, choice 3.50 to 4.00. ralves were stronger, under a good demand, choice 9.00 to 9.75, fair to good, 8.00 to 9.00, common to med- ium 6.00 to 7.50. A good demand from outsiders was helpful in forcing hog prices higher, and on Monday truck hog.s sold at 8.15 on the hoof, and 10.85 dressed weight. Present indications - the close of Monday's market looked favorable for a steadv trade during the balance of the week. T\vo Toronto lads of two and three have been taken, to hospital because they swallowed pennies. Probably heard their parents saying how hard it heir parents saying liow hard it was was to keep any money these days.
