As filed

Compared to the last special two weeks ago, steers weighing under 750 lbs sold mostly steady to firm on a lighter test, with 750-800 lbs selling steady to 3.00 higher, heifers weighing 450-650 lbs trading 4.00-8.00 higher, over 650 lbs sold with a firm to higher undertone on a light test. Several consignments of unweaned calves in Friday's offering, but overall demand was good on a moderate offering with best demand on the 500-650 lb heifers and 550-650 lb steers. Slaughter cows sold firm to 4.00 higher.
