Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold 1.00 to 6.00 higher with some light cattle under 525 lbs up to 10.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Really nice run of home raised calves with a handful of backgrounded consignments mixed in throughout the day. Supply moderate, demand moderate to good.
