fairly obtained, and the higher prices as compared with 
1899 are clearly shown.

Shrewsbury is still almost alone in reporting the sale of 
store cattle in any numbers by weight, the transactions in 
this market in all three qualities of store cattle exceeding

reported as sold by weight at Leicester, Dundee, Edinburgh, 
and Glasgow. 7 
The usual table giving details for each of the scheduled 
places is appended.
