Broad demand for cattle and calves at Fort Worth last week left cows slightly off peak while most slaughter and stocker cattle held steady to higher. Good to choice fed steers and yearlings sold around 25 to 28 dollars, stocker calves 20 to 27, fat cows 16.50 to 20, and slaughter calves 24 to 27 with 18 to 23 for plain grades. Lambs and sheep varied, with milk fat lambs 26 to 28 and old bucks 9 to 10, while a note on court matters and Alpine postal service added local community color.
