*** This is the last sale week of this
year. Next sales week of January 3, 1998.
*•*
Compared to last week: Feeder steers

decline, or 1.00-2.00 lower than last
week’s open. Demand good for feeders.
Steer calves 1.00-3.00 higher. Heifer
calves steady. Demand good for calves as
warm dry weather excellent for moving
calves. Quality plain to average and well
below last week. Feeder cattle in medium
flesh; calves in slightly thin to medium
flesh, few fleshy. Calf condition continues
attractive to buyers with moderate numbers
of weaned dried out calves available.
Wdgh-ups gaunt to average. Slaughter
