As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold unevenly steady, with a few reputation consignments of thinner cattle over 800 lbs offered today. Feeder heifers limited comparable weights, 700-850 lbs sold mostly steady to 1.00 lower. Not enough calves last week for a market trend. Demand good to very good, quality average to mostly attractive. Slaughter cows sold 2.00 to 3.00 higher, not enough bulls last week for a market test.
