and despite excellent haying weather which has finally arrived, a good crowd of 
buyers and sellers were on hand.
Bidding activity, both in person and via the internet, was active.
Demand was good to very good.
Although overall cattle supplies are smaller than a year ago the supply 
would still be considered heavy at this years' auction.

Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida.
