As filed

Compared to the last sale three weeks ago, steers under 550 lbs sold with a sharply higher undertone, heavier weight steers and all weights of heifers steady Slaughter cows 4.00 to 7.00 higher. Pretty light run this week in some clean up type trade with lots of unweaned calves on offer. Demand was good, especially for anything suitable for grazing, and few discounts were evident even for the bawlers right off the cow. Supply light.
