As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers mixed with the better kind under 650 lbs 1.00-6.00 higher and the plainer kind and unweaned 650-700 lb calves steady to 10.00 lower mostly 1.00-3.00 lower. Feeder heifers mostly steady to 5.00 lower except the better 500-650 lbs 2.00-4.00 higher. The offering included several weaned calves some with two rounds of shots that were in good demand. Cows and bulls not reported due to time limits.
