Compared to two weeks ago, slaughter cows were 4.00 to 6.00 higher, while bulls were 8.00 to 9.00 higher on a fairly light test. Feeder steers were sharply higher; there were too few feeder bulls and heifers to establish an adequate market comparison, however, a higher undertone was noted. Demand, market activity, and buyer interest were moderate. Offerings of cattle were fairly light. Cattle quality was average. Baby calves ranged 5.00 to 15.00 per head.
