Reporter comment USDA

As filed

There was no comparable trade from last Saturdays sale so no trend will be given. There was a light crowd on hand today for good strings and packages of feeder type cattle still coming off pasture. Trade was moderate with good demand with a firm undertone noted. Sheridans next sale will be a special feeder calf sale May 1, 2019.
