As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers were 5.00 to 6.00 higher with slaughter heifers 4.00 to 6.00 higher with good value on higher quality steers and heifers and active buyer participation today. No Holstein slaughter steers this week. Cows were 5.00 higher with good prices on higher dressing cows and bulls 5.00 to 10.00 higher with a good offering of high dressing bulls. All classes of feeder calves were sharply higher with a good offering of value added and fancy type feeders and were in very good demand.
