FEEDER CATTLE            7872           9978    11558     
  
  
Compared to last week:  Steer calves 25.00 to 30.00 lower, heifer calves 30.00 
to 40.00 lower.  Demand for calves more moderate this week as the turnover in 
the cattle futures complex, and lower cash fed cattle market, is causing cattle 
feeders to re-evaluate their approach to the feeder market.  A rainy week 
across feeding country has also put pressure on the market as feed yard pen 
conditions are wet and sloppy, making it very difficult to care for calves 
coming right off the cow.
