DTN COMMENTS: A little interest is starting to develop in cattle country 
this morning with a few bids on the table in parts of Kansas, and some 
asking prices in parts of Texas noted at $252-plus. The rest of cattle 
country remains very quiet. Significant trade volume may be delayed until 
Thursday and/or Friday. Beef cutouts are expected to be mixed with light 
to moderate box movement.

NOTE: Feedlots are encouraged to call DTN with any cattle sales, at
1-402-461-3561. All sales will be listed anonymously and organized by 
state. All live sales are FOB and set for 1-9-day delivery. A weekly 
summary from this data will be posted on the Weekly Cattle Sales Reported 
to DTN page and will be left up for the entire week for reference 
purposes.
