Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, feeders sold steady. Supply was light due to the mud and wintry mix of precipitation over the last few days, however a complete cow herd dispersion of about 300 head was offered which brought in a crowd on a day that not much else could be done. Demand was moderate. Slaughter cows sold mostly 3.00-6.00 higher.
