As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers 2.00-10.00 higher. Feeder heifers 2.00-10.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 lower. Slaughter bulls 1.00-2.00 lower. Quality was average. All classes of cattle were in high demand. Record high fat cattle and higher future contracts have spurred buyers to be very aggressive. Next Thursday will be the 3rd Thursday stock cow sale. Many consignments of quality stock cows will be here next week.
