Compared to last week:  Feeder cattle offerings too limited this week to allow 
a fair market comparison with last week's much larger offering.  Very good 
demand for all weights of steers and heifers.  With the cash fat cattle market 
up to 260.00, there is great interest to buy cattle.  Rains came to the state 
this week, bringing much needed relief to many areas.  Many auction markets are 
on a biweekly sale schedule as they normally do throughout the summer.
