mostly '.50 lower. Heifers
steady to .25 higher on high
Choice and Prime. Good and
average Choice steady to .50

Small receipts made for a
forced trade on Wednesday
as .demand was light on bulk
of Steer supplies. Good
weather for field work in the
production area along with a
weaker beef trade primary
factors in continued small
cattle movements.
