Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers 2.00-10.00 higher. Slaughter cows 3.00-5.00 higher. Demand good to very good. Supply heavy. Strong demand seen on several high quality consignments weighing 550-750 lbs. Full range of quality on a large run of feeders following the week off. Another very large run of slaughter cows followed the feeders as drought continues in much of the area.
