Today's sale consisted of many nice strings of feeders and many load lots of steers and heifers. Compared to the last feeder sale three weeks ago all weights of feeders traded higher. Feeder steers 550 to 600 lbs were 8.00 higher; 600 to 650 lbs. were 6.00 higher; 650 to 700 lbs. were 12.00 higher; 700 to 750 lbs. were 11.00 higher and 750 to 850 lbs. were 4.00 to 6.00 higher. Feeder heifers 550 to 600 lbs. were 5.00 higher; 600 to 650 lbs were steady to l.00 higher and 650 to 700 lbs. were 10.00 higher. Very good demand for today's offering.
