As filed

Compared to last Thursday at the same market, this was the first real test of stocker and feeder cattle for the new year. Quality was very attractive of ranch raised offerings. Buyer attendance was very good. Slaughter cows and bulls 2.00-3.00 higher. Trade very active with very good demand.
