Even at this figure, holders of remaining sup. plies of bluestem are not wlllllng to let go and there are many predictions that the nrice will so to 81 or better before the end of the present season is reached. This was forecast in this report at the very start of the season. . The demand for our wheat from Eu rope la the greatest in the history of the trade here.

Bv Hyman H. Cohen. Portland union Stockyards, Sept, 19 A new high record was touched in the market for cows ins. pas. J. H. Gray of Shanlko shipped in a lot i.inh innn.il the market at 84. or within a fraction of the highest price obtained durlna- the week for the beat class of steers mat came. . .. , There was a lesson In the sale of this lot of cows that may save miicn money to Intending shippers to this or any other mantet. Tne marnei wnmj stock, and is willing to pay for It D.ob.r. ara tlrad anit SO Of receiving off grade stock, and the prices obtained for this class of stock, while good for the quality snown is a money iubihr vAntiir. vn.n Romouren iu viio ioiuiur from finished stock even at the present market. Thft nrttfit 8Rson has been an ex- SanrlAna I StriA 1T1 Y n SB I I Vf MLIICH HIUUBllli and it is quite likely that furtarer price changes will soon be made In favor of tha hst stock. The spring was ex tremely cold and the grass on the range did not get a fair start before the ex treme warm weather came along and dried up everything In sight At this time there are few places where the ranges are even fair. This is the cause of such liberal shipments of livestock early in the season, t The huge price of grain and mlllfeeds caused many pros pective readers to may out oi ma uum ness this season Because they could not see their way clear to get their-.money back so dim were tne prospects ior good livestock prices. At the present time slaughterers are filled to overflowing- with poor quality cattle. Their yards can not get any more stock into the enclosures, and even though there were more room the killers are heartily tired of buying noth ing but poor class stock. They have had their fill of off grade stock and want a change. They want something select, and the few sales of good cattle during the week showed by their prices just how eager the killers were to take hold of something better than they have bean receiving. When finished cows and heifers were selling up to $4 It looks as if some real grand values would be obtainable for something in the way of steers. While $4.25' is the beat reDnrted nrlce fdr steers in the yards during the week, it is quite likely that were the oualltv shown 34.35 or perhaps $4.60 would be Just as easily obtainable. As predicted in this department dur ing tne past rew weens, tne stucoie tea hogs in about to cause the wreck vt the hog market During the paat week ar rivals were of this character, and most or them are still being neia by receiv ers, simply because packera want some thing better. They say: 'Take your atubble half fed hogs home; feed them something that will out fat on them. Then bring them back. We will pay you for the trouble. We don't want the half fat stuff at any price." During the week there vers a few arrivals of good fat hogs, and these found a sale week, or an advance of J5e over the pre vious week. ' i The heavy run of sheep is over, and arrivals of but 1,208 head were noted for the week. This compares with 2,464 a week ago, 1,106 a year ago and 2,873 . two years ago for this same week. While the arrivals of the past week were" a trifle heavier than for this period a year ago, it must again be remarked here that the present season is an un usual ne with Its greatest shortage of range: The - situation in sheen locally resembles that In cattle and bogs, only there Is more nronounced strength for good sheep than in other lines. There was no change In sheep values during the week, , i Calf Market is Holding- WsO. The market for calves waa quite good the past week, holding quite firm and steady at last week's values.
