As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers were 1.00 higher with a good offering and slaughter heifers were 1.00 lower this week and lower packer inquiry this week. Holstein slaughter steers were 1.00 higher today. Cows were 1.00 to 2.00 higher with bulls trading 1.00 higher. Feeder steers were mostly steady with feeder heifers 5.00 higher and feeder bulls too few to compare.
