As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold unevenly steady to 5.00 higher. Feeder heifers sold steady to 4.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold 2.00 cheaper. Slaughter bulls had no trend due to light test on bulls. There will be a special bull sale next Thursday on 11-14 offering black angus and hereford bulls.
