First reported sale in recent weeks so an accurate price trend can not be 
established, higher undertones noted on steers.  Very good demand for cattle 
today.  Most of this offering sold in string and loads and came out of yards.  
Flesh varied, but mostly moderate to moderate plus with some heavy flesh at 
times. Most cattle were average to attractive in quality.  An active market 
with most of the usual crowd of order buyers and a few internet buyers, quite a 
few opportunities to buy multiple loads of the same weight cattle which buyers 
took advantage of.  Rain has been spotty in this area and its getting dry 
although crop and grass conditions still look good this week due to cooler 
weather.  Next feeder cattle sale is Friday, July 25.
