As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold 5.00- 10.00 lower. Feeder heifers sold 1.00- 3.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold 3.00- 5.00 higher. Slaughter bulls sold steady to 1.00 lower. There was a very light test on the market due to recent rainfall in the area. Quality was good to average with average buyer demand on all classes.
