As filed

A much smaller offering than last week. Best test on steers 650 to 900 lbs mostly steady except 800 to 850 lbs not well compared, instances up to 3.00 lower on 700 to 800 lbs. Best test on heifers 600 to 650 mostly steady. Good demand for this offering of packages and loads and a string of home raised steers. A load of reputation replacement heifers was met with very good demand. Quality varied less than last week with most of today's cattle average to attractive in quality. Flesh ranged from light to moderate plus. An active market with both order buyers and farmer feeders in the seats today. Next feeder cattle sale is Friday, March 19.
