Average attendance today, nigh half the run as las reported with much lower 
offering of Feeder Cattle in light of yesterday's Special Graded Feeder sale.  
No market test on Feeders, not enough supply to set a trend.  Slaughter Cows 
and Bulls spot on steady compared to last.  Worth noting is the continued 
demand for Cow-Calf pairs bringing $3,250 to $3800 per family.  Baby Calves 
today: $475 to $520 per head, perhaps a lower trend there.  Heiferettes, $240 
to $275 per cwt.
