tered around standing commitments.
Offerings were fully adequate to ample.
Live supplies were at least moderate;
weights varied and were mostly in a de
sirable range. Processing schedules were
moderate. Less than trucklot asking
prices were unchanged at 55 to 69 cents.
Trade sentiment was about steady at
best. In the parts complex, all items were
at least adequate for the typically lack
luster mid-week buying interest. Breast
