As filed

Compared to last week, the bulk of the feeder supply consisted of 550-700 lb steers and they sold near 10.00 higher, with some packages as much as 20.00 higher. A much lighter offering of steers under 550 lbs and over 750 lbs traded near steady or with no good comparisons to last weeks market. In a rather odd occurrence only 20 percent of the feeder supply consisted of heifers which was not enough to establish a good trend. Slaughter cows were steady.
