Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Slim comparisons to last week's light feeder offering but some similar sales of steers and heifers sold 20.00 to 30.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Overall quality was much improved over last week and ran very deep into the sale. Not a lot of cattle moving throughout the trade area this week thanks to some winter weather but buyers were eager to put some stock together and had several larger reputation consignments to work with. Supply moderate, demand good to very good.
