Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers sold steady to firm on limited comparable sales. Trade activity was moderate on moderate to good demand. The area had a chance to dry out from recent rains with the first cold front of the season expected over night. Slaughter cows and bulls not well tested.
