As filed

No comparison is available to last week, the sale was cancelled due to icy conditions. Demand was strong on a good run of weaned and value added cattle with the buyers most interested on those type cattle. Feeders between 400 lb and 600 lb looked to be in the stongest demand, but as stated, all ranges were good. Slaughter cattle not reported due to time constraints.
