Weekly Market Letter notes cattle market slump in 1915 Kansas City
The Kansas City stock yards report a weakened cattle market for the week ending July 26 1915 with prices 14 to 45 lower on killing grades while stockers and feeders hold steadier. Packers complain of extremely bad conditions and a continuing decline in prices for steer and heifer classes amid rising supply. Wheat and corn futures move slowly with limited gains as receipts remain robust and western markets reflect softer demand. Continuous references to market activity across Kansas City and Arkansas City alongside price levels for prime heavy cattle, steer and calf categories, and packer demand frame the broader agricultural outlook.
