Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, a light supply of steers and heifers traded 3.00-10.00 lower following the CME feeder cattle contracts that have lost near 10.00 from the high a couple weeks ago. Demand was moderate. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady, however the high dressing cows were 2.00-4.00 lower than the highs last week. Most locals have reported 2-3 inches of rain from Tuesday's storm.
