As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers were 1.00 to 2.00 lower and slaughter heifers 1.00 lower with a good offering of steers and heifers but lower packer interest this week. Holstein slaughter steers were 6.00 higher with a good group of prime Holsteins. Cows were 2.00 to 8.00 lower and bulls sharply lower. Feeder steers and heifer were sharply higher with some good value added heavier heifers today.
