GENERAL COMMENTS:

   The livestock complex closed mixed with the lean hog contracts rounding out
the day lower, but the cattle contracts successfully rallied through Tuesday's
end. A few Southern live cattle traded in the South at $191 which is steady
with last week's weighted average. March corn is up 7 1/4 cents per bushel and
January soybean meal is up $2.40. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is down
154.10 points.
