Compared to last week:  Feeder steers and heifers 5.00 to 10.00 higher.  Very 
good demand for steers and heifers this week as the CME Live and Feeder Cattle 
made good gains, narrowing the basis substantially and painting a much 
different picture for the fall/winter months than where it was a few weeks 
earlier.  Long strings of yearlings continue to come to town, some grass 
yearlings as well from droughted out areas that really don't have grass to turn 
out on.  Cattle feeders held out all week for more money, as of this writing 
just a few trades at 256.00.  Rain came to many areas of the region at the end 
of the week, but grass is very short in the lower 2/3rds of the state, keeping 
some cattle from being turned out at all and producers adjusting the numbers of 
cattle they will carry for the year.
