Feeder steers and heifers steady to 15.00 higher on a very limited test. Slaughter cows steady. Demand good. Supply light. Difficult market to trend with the quality not nearly as good as last week. Price advances show up in the feeder bulls and feeders classified as "1-2's" with the least demand on a few bigger bawling calves. The market is higher in general so far this week with feeder futures contracts going straight up for the past several days.
