trending 1 00-3 00 higher late in the week on a very attractive offering Buyers seemed very hesitant to procure the plainer supply of steers that went through the ring on Tuesday, however late in the week buyers threw caution to the wind as the hulk of the C hoice steers were bringing in the 70 00 range Keep in mind that the direct feed yards arc moving their steers from 69 00-70 00 this week, which means any premium the local trade had to the Western feeders is nou all but gone However most local feed ers are tickled just to be receiving 68 00-71 (H) for their hard fed cattle and could care less if ihev hold a pre mium as long as bids keep increasing The outlook looks very good for feeders as February live cattle fu lures contracts arc knocking on the 76 00 door, and if all goes well packers will try to keep the cash trade and the futures aligned Slaughter heifer numbers were light this week with a firmer undertone noted on the feu available Holstein steers kicked off (he ucek trending weaker uith Thursdays s bids firmer as a very hot slaughter steer market worked to move all slaughter classes higher Slaughter cows sold steady to 200 higher this week I can Holstein cows continue to form a steady line from the farm to the local sale bams, and buyers continue to gobble up the supply Speaking of gobble the Thanksgiving holiday is right around the corner and with that millions of pounds of turkey is consumed Many producers arc hoping that the de mand for beef products holds firm this holiday season, as retailers spend all of their cnergv moving turkey and pork products Slaughter bulls sold mostly I 00-2 00 higher as the demand is as good as the supply This week's supply included 37 percent steers 7 percent heifers 40 percent cows 7 percent hulls, with the
