COMMENTS: A light to moderate trade was reported in all major feeding 
states today. It is looking like the bulk of business could essentially be done 
for the week, although a little cleanup is not out of the question tomorrow. 
Southern live deals were marked at mostly $167, $4 higher than last week's 
weighted averages. Dressed sales in Nebraska were at mostly $270 to $272, $5 to 
$6 
higher than last week's weighted averages.
