Beresford of Ames told Keokuk county cattlemen that buyers may profit more by purchasing feeder cattle early or late rather than during the fall rush. He cited crop and price "ifs" and a marketing survey showing heavy spring activity and gradual summer slack, forecasting stronger early-year demand for feeder cattle if conditions hold.
