Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week's light test, there were very few comparisons on Wednesday's special feeder cattle auction. Calves and yearlings traded with a firm to higher undertone on a nice offering of good quality feeders selling with moderate to good demand. Slaughter cows sold steady to firm.
