Compared to last week:  a lighter offering with different weight classes than 
last week, best test on steers 950 to 999 lbs 4.00 to 10.00 lower.  Lower 
undertones noted on heifers.  A couple strings, quite a few loads, and many 
packages in today's offering.  Lighter cattle to grass or background see very 
good demand, good to very good demand for finishing types depending on flesh 
condition.  Flesh on bigger cattle mostly moderate to heavy, backgrounding type 
cattle in mostly light to moderate plus flesh.  Quality varied quite a bit on 
packages, loads lots mostly average to attractive in quality.  An active market 
with mostly order buyers in the seats today exhibiting slightly more caution 
procuring cattle than seen last week.  Much corn has been planted and the area 
is in need of rain.  Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, May 20.
