Compared to last Tuesday: A lighter test was recorded due to higher than normal temperatures. Local interest in light weight feeder cattle kept the market fairly steady through all classes of cattle under 400 lbs. Feeder steers and heifers over 400 lbs were down, and down sharply in some instances due to very limited interest in moving cattle in the heat. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly steady with good demand.
