As filed

*Close* Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold 4.00 to 6.00 higher. Feeder heifers sold unevenly steady using limited comparable weights. Calves too lightly tested for a market trend. Overall, demand moderate to good, quality mostly average. Due to excessive rain falls in the area and more forecasted through the weekend, trade is light. Slaughter cows sold 4.00 to 5.00 lower. Bulls sold 2.00 to 3.00 lower.
