FEEDER CATTLE            9122           9408    9296      
  
  
Compared to last week:  Feeder steers and heifers 5.00 to 15.00 lower.  Good to 
very good demand for steers and heifers this week, best demand, by far, was for 
steers and heifers suitable for backgrounding and for replacement quality 
heifers.  With the lower futures contracts, that pressure spilled over into the 
feeder cattle market at the auction.  Cattle feeders are feeling very uncertain 
as their breakeven prices are higher than the current levels of the futures 
contracts.
