DTN COMMENTS:  Cash cattle country this morning is fairly quiet. A few 
asking prices have been noted in parts of the South around $221, they 
have yet to be established in the North. Significant trade volume will 
likely be delayed until Wednesday or later. Beef cutouts are expected to 
be higher 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.
