Box 189, Preston, MD 21655 Omaha Cattle Thursday, June 23 Report Supplied By USDA Weekly 51 CATTLE Slaughter steers, two-way steer and slaughter heifers on Wed nesday’s close ranged 1.502.00 lower than previous week’s close. Cows 1.00-1.50 lower. Bulls steady. Fed cattle trading followed the same pattern of the last four weeks with packers constantly pressing for sharply lower costs while two way interests remained extremely aggressive. The large purchases of 10001150 lb. steers, to return to feedlots, prevented prices from falling even more drastically than did occur. Overall finish ran the poorest in some time with many steers and heifers falling into the good-low choice bracket. Four Day Receipts 11858; Week Ago 14409; Last Year 7442.
