No Sale last week therefore comparisons will be made to two weeks ago. Feeder Steers under 600 3.00 to 5.00 higher, 600 to 650 8.00 to 10.00 higher, 650 to 800 10.00 to 12.00 higher, Feeder Heifers under 600 Steady, 600 to 650 10.00 to 12.00 higher, 650 to 700 6.00 to 8.00 higher, 700 to 750 8.00 to 10.00 higher. Good Demand for several strings, load lots, and many packages of Feeder Steers, Feeder Heifers, and Replacement Heifers which sold on a Strong, Active Market. Nearly the entire Offering was Home Raised, Weaned, and had Spring and Fall Vaccinations. Much of the Supply carried light to Moderate Flesh with a favorable weigh-up displaying clean, open haired cattle, although there were several drafts that showed evidence of muddy pens due to the fabulously warm weather around the country the last several weeks. The next Feeder Cattle Sale is February 27, expecting 2,500 head.
