Disappointing Shipments From Fort Benton Cattle Men
Fort Benton and nearby points report weak cattle shipments last week as Shonkin outfit delayed by a bad market. Carrol and Mee steers netted about 44 dollars with cows under 30. J Orville Patterson led with 6 cents for top steers bred on his ranch. Shipments from Gallata and the Bar Fleven and Circle outfits set for more moves, with high quality Sweet Grass cattle watched by stockmen. Market watchers blame a rush of western cattle to Chicago for yesterday’s slump, predicting prices may rise again later in fall as supply holds steady and beef quality improves toward October.
