The area experienced consider able melting of our snow stockpile this week, just in time to brace ourselves for yet another significant winter storm that moved in Friday. Slaughter cattle re ceipts continue to be light at the auctions and local direct country trading is re portedly almost non- existent. North eastern packing plants are learning to rely on Midwestern cattle for the bulk of their kill and Lancaster County is merely filling in the gaps. Western feediots sold .50-1.00 lower this week at 68.00-68.50 and mostly 108.00 dressed. Local Holstein steer demand remained good this week and prices held fully steady. Slaughter cows finished weak to 1.00 lower and instances 1.50 lower on the big fleshy cows (less than 85 pet lean). Slaughter bulls ended the week mostly steady.

Holstein bull calves returning to special-fed veal barns fell out of a trading range that has kept prices up for the last several months. Fresh bulls ended the week as much as 30.00 lower for Number 1 qual ity calves. Some of the weakness may be blamed on the fact that this week’s calf placements are due to finish during the week of July 4th. Holstein heifer prices closed steady to weak.
