Compared to last week:  best test on steers 750 to 849 lbs mostly steady on a 
narrow comparison and heifers not well compared.  A larger offering this week 
with several strings of backgrounded steers and loads and packages of home 
raised cattle in town.  Moderate to good demand for cattle today depending on 
flesh condition.  Quite a bit of flesh and some tag at times, especially on 
cattle from backgrounding yards.  Quality ranged from plain to attractive.  An 
active market with the usual crowd of order buyers in the seats.  Recent 
uncertainty on the futures complex has put a little pressure on the market, 
however, buyers seemed slightly less apprehensive than last week.  Big swings 
in weather this week with a blizzard over the weekend to temps in the 60's 
today, yard conditions are muddy once again.  Next feeder cattle sale is 
Friday, March 27.
