REPORT OF ST. LOUIS
LIVE STOCK MARKET
Furnished by St. Louis Live
Stock Commission Co
St. Louis, Feb. 16.—Cattle
receipts 3500. The southern
cattle trade has maintained a
fairly uniform tendency this
week. The trade for small stuff
and grown cattle is generally
10c to 15c higher than last
week’s close, while heavy, fed
steers are closing 25c higher
han Friday. However,the trade
s hardly as high as it was the
best time of last week. Canners
$4.25 to $4.40; cutters, $4.65
to $5; fat tows $5.50 to $6; j
light weight bulls $4.75 to $5;j
heavy bulls, $5.50 to $6; light'
weigt steers $4.75 to $5.25;

$6; fed steers 800 to 1100 lb,
$6.25 to $7.25. Yearlings $4.65
to $4.85; heretics $5.50 to $6 i
veal calves $6.50 to $10.50.
Hog receipts 12500, with
about 2500 direct to packers.
Strong weight,corn fed hogs are
selling all right, but there’s a
world of pigs and light lights
coming, and the yards are full
of them. Th« market for these
is demoralized, so please be !
careful about shipping hogs
that are mastfed or that are
from suspicious territory, for
they are selling very low. Watch
the quotations for cornfed hogs
which follow; they tell the:
facts. Today’s receipts 12500.
Heavies opened steady, but'
closed 5c higher; top $8.45 for
heavies. Bulk of the good hogs
160 If) and up, $8.10 to $8.30; j
roughs, $7.50 to $7.75; pigs.:
15c t—o 25c lower; 120 to 150
ft) $7.25 to $8; light pigs $5.75
to $7.25. Mast fed hogs sell less
than these quotations, and vary
considerably in price.

ROBIN RED BREAST
THE BEST FLOUR
ON EARTH!
---And It Costs No More
If it were possible to procure a better quality of
wheat—a better process of milling—a better flour than
Robin Red Breast, the name of that flour would be Ro
bin Red Breast! In no respect is AN\ flour superior
though many cost more.
Robin Red Breast Flour makes the finest, light- bis
cuit—the most brittle and appetizing pie crust—the
most superb and delicious cake.
Isn’t it logical that Robin Red Breast Flour should
be so exceedingly popular with so many housewives if
it is the best procurable notwithstanding the price is
no higher than many ordinary breads?
