COMMENTS:  A light trade developed in parts of the North at mostly 
$370, $6 lower than last week's weighted average basis Nebraska. A very 
light scattered trade was reported in parts of the South at $240, even with 
last week's weighted averages. A more significant trade will need to take 
place at some point tomorrow.
