As filed

No sale last week due to winter weather, compared to two weeks ago: best test on steers 550 to 700 lbs 6.00 to 10.00 higher. Best test on heifers 700 to 750 lbs 3.00 to 4.00 higher. Good to very good demand for this large offering featuring many packages and loads of mostly home raised cattle. Many attractive cattle to choose from today, flesh condition mostly light to moderate plus. Market activity active to very active, lots in interest to get cattle bought as the fall board is looking very promising. Winter weather expected in the area again this weekend. Next feeder cattle sale is Friday, March 10.
