As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers traded mostly steady. Slaughter cows 2.00 to 4.00 higher. A little more variety in the type and kind this week when compared to the larger sale two weeks ago, with calf quality not running quite as deep Wednesday. A couple consignments of backgrounded pot loads were still met with excellent demand. Supply moderate, demand good.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
