Compared to last week, steers less than 600 lbs sold sharply higher, 6 weight 
steers sold 20.00 higher, 700 to 900 lbs sold 3.00 to 4.00 lower and 900 lbs 
sold 10.00 higher. Heifers less than 600 lbs sold 10.00 to 14.00 higher, over 
600 lbs sold 2.00 to 8.00 higher. Demand was good to very good for all weights 
and classes of cattle. Several reports of new buyers hitting seats at the 
auction and very active internet buying.  This week area auctions saw several 
all-time new highs on their feeder cattle prices.  Feedlot sales also set a new 
benchmark last week.  Live sales sold 1.00 to 4.00 higher at 229.00 and dressed 
sales sold 3.00 higher at 358.00. Spotty rain showers late in the week might 
brighten the moods of the agriculture industry for a few days.  Some brown 
pastures overnight turned green due to the greatness of Mother Nature. But 
overall, most of the state is still very dry ranging from severe to extreme.
