Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to two weeks ago; feeder steers and heifers traded steady to 5.00 higher with load lots trading instances 10.00 higher. A very nice run today with several long strings of longtime weaned calves in grass condition. A very active internet throughout the day. A nice selection of replacement type heifers also on display. Sale again in two weeks.
