As filed

No comparisons to the prevous week is available the sale was cancelled due to a snow and sleet event. Reciepts were light as the road conditions in the area have not been completly resolved and kept producers from getting to the market. Supply was light and buyer attendence was light also, with good to moderate demand on the few quality feeders available.
