As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold 5.00-12.00 higher. Feeder heifers sold 4.00- 12.00 higher. Slaughter cows sold 7.00 -10.00 higher. Slaughter bulls sold 5.00- 7.00 higher. The quality of cattle was average to good. The heat had a factor on the market last week and this week it trended back up. Buyer participation was very active, with weaned cattle bringing a premium.
