As filed

Compared to last week slaughter steers were 3.00 lower with slaughter heifers 3.00 to 4.00 lower and less packer inquiry this week. Holstein slaughter steers were too few last week to compare but were trending higher today. Cows were 5.00 to 10.00 higher with a good offering of cows and bulls and bulls 3.00 higher with active bidding on both cows and bulls. All classes of feeder calves were significantly higher with lots of fancy type and valve added feeders and active buyer participation this week.
