Too few cattle and different weight classes today than last week to develop an accurate trend. Moderate to good demand for today's offering which consisted of one long string of 900 backgrounded heifers and several packages of homeraised cattle. Moderate to moderate plus flesh on most of the cattle today. Market activity was mostly active with a more limited crowd of buyers today. Rainy and cold conditions have delayed field work in this area and most farmers are just starting their spring work. Big annual birthday sale planned for next Friday, May 7.
