As usual on n holiday there was not much
of a market for live stoctt Iu fact there
was not much stocit to soil nor very much
ot 11 demand to toll It The buyers did not
want much aud with visions of a Christmas
dinner to como they were pot IncJIuol to
buy heavier or to spend moro time than mi
absolute ! } necessary
Catiln
There were only fourteen fresh loads of
cattle , hardly enough to iiiako a market on
any day With to few cattle It seemed only
natural that tlio buyers should pay strong
prices Such cattle as lho buyers wanted
woio soon picked up and the market closed
early lho sellers are generally very
anxious that the country should fully com *
prebend the situation , for auould the present
strengthening In prices bo looked upon as
any ihlng permanent and a huavy run result ,
nothing conl 1 prov cnt the complete dcuioralt

but the oi | oslto was true todny The trade
was s ow nnd It took ns long to clean up the
few hogs that were hero as it docs on m my

pear at all anxious tor hogs nt any prices ,
but in the end they bought thorn nt ubont
