Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers 1.00-2.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs steady to 2.00 lower, over 600 lbs 1.00-3.00 higher based on limited comparisons with last week. Slaughter cows 2.00-4.00 lower. Demand good. Supply moderate. Several nice consignments of feeders this week.
