Trade active and average attendance but lower head run than last week following yesterday's Graded Feeder Special sale. See "Buckhannon Stockyards--Special Graded Sale" for yesterday's results. Too few head to test Feeders today. Slaughter Cows continuing the downward trend of the past three weeks, dropping $8 - $10 per cwt lower again this week.
