GENERAL

There was more uneveness in
attle prices throughout the
country this week than in a long
ime. A rather bad break hit
prices in the midwest as the
veek opened, but there was a
zood recovery when receipts
lropped to a very low level.

Far western markets failed to
recover after the initial break
‘his week, and most quotations
ire ending lower. First signs of
weekness showed up late last
week, then continued this week
on moderate numbers. Demand
stayed light at all times and,
with very narrow buying orders,
it was rather difficult to get
offerings cleaned up.

The drop in buiying came as
no great surprise to the majority
of members in the trade, for this
is Holy Week and generally a
time when red meat buying is at
a very low ebb.

There are indications that a
fairly large crop of cattle are
nearing market condition in the
midwest, and larger runs are ex-
pected to hit the markets in the
near future, A lot of cattle that
were bought late this winter,
however, are scheduled for
spring grass, which may. temper
the situation somewhat.

There is a different situation
in the far west, Numbers of
cattle on feed are down sharply
from a year earlier and, as yet,

ove BAPCO PAINTS

Honestly, how much do you know about paint? You know the color
| RK you want, you know you want the color to last, you know you want
the.paint to go on easily. And all you know about quality is that
you want it to be the best. That’s why you’re wise to choose any of the
Bapco Paints. Because inside every can is the finest pigment, the best
oil (or alkyd or acrylic or latex, depending on the base of the paint
you choose). In addition, every Bapco Paint is quality-tested ten
different ways before it leaves the Bapco laboratories. Technically

speaking, no better paints are made, Speaking of results, use
Bapco next time you paint and prove all this for yourself!
