COMMENTS:   A very light trade was reported today in all major 
feeding states, Southern live sales were marked at $260, $3 higher than last 
week's weighted averages, Northern dressed deals were at $400, $2 to $3 lower 
than last week's weighted averages. As business was light this may not be the 
actual trend for the week.
