As filed

Bitter cold weather on Monday along with several inches of snow throughout the trade area curtailed receipts with a light offering but several part loads and three pot loads of yearling steers and heifers were on offer. Yearling steers weighing over 700 lbs and 600-650 lb heifers traded with a firm to higher undertone with few good comparisons with last week and 650-700 lb heifers sold steady to firm with all other weights lightly tested. Slaughter cows were scarce.
