Correction to actual receipt total

Compared to last sale: Feeder steers 5.00-10.00 higher. Feeder heifers steady to 5.00 higher. In a light comparison steer calves 5.00 lower, while heifer calves 10.00-15.00 higher. Quality ranged from plain to average, several fleshy and few fancy. Demand good. Few calves and smaller feeders in the barn today, as most of today's stock weighed over 700 pounds. CME cattle feeder futures boards closed in the green again today.

One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Oklahoma auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
