Compared to last week: Sentiment was largely mixed on few comparable sales. 
Steer calves seemed to be in higher demand while the bigger feeder steers 
displayed a lower undertone. Heifers were mixed across all classes, with a good 
turn out of cattle coming off of short wheat. Average yielding boner cows 
brought 6.00 higher and no test on high yielding cows. Wheat cattle may 
continue to come to town as the weather warms up and not much chance of 
precipitation in the near future. Grass fires have plagued the area recently 
with the continuing dry weather and plenty of fuel left over from this last 
summer. Please be aware of any fire hazards.
