Compared to last week:  best test on steers 600 to 699 lbs mostly steady, other 
classes of steers and heifers not well compared.  Very good demand for 
backgrounding or grass type cattle today, good to very good demand for 
finishing type cattle depending on flesh condition, very good demand for 
replacement heifers.  A large offering of loads and packages of both home 
raised and backgrounded cattle.  Overall quality more attractive than last week 
with many attractive cattle on offer, but carrying more flesh overall, flesh 
condition ranged from light to heavy.  An active market despite large losses on 
the futures complex today.  Mostly order buyers in the seats, even for 
replacement heifers.  Next feeder cattle sale is Friday, March 6.
