As filed

Compared to the auction from two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers sold firm to 10.00 higher, with instances as much as 20.00-30.00 higher for the right kind of grazing steer calves. Quality was attractive with a good mix of both calves and yearlings. Demand was good and supply moderate.
