Stocker cattle and calves steady with very good demand. Feeder cattle ate moving off wheat early due to dry condi tions and profitability. Despite this cattle continued to teach their maximum weights and much of supply were feeders weighing over 700 lbs in fleshier than normal condi tions for this time of year. This combined with a lackluster movement of slaughter cattle and declining cattle futures has dam pened demand and price of feeders. Qual ity average to attractive. Feeders in medium to fleshy conditions off wheat; calves In thin to moderate flesh. Wdgh-ups gaunt to avenge. Slaughter cows and bulls 1.00 lower. Packer demand moderate. Demand good for replacement and stock cows. Total of 373 cows and bolls sold with 33 percent to packets. Receipts this week 13,400; last week 11,131; last year 12,123. Supply consisted of SO percent yearlings over 600 lbs; 17 percent calves under 600 lbs; 3 percent cows and bulls. Heifers comprised 33 percent of feeder and calf supply.
