As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers under 500 lbs 4.00-8.00 lower, over 500 lbs steady to firm. Feeder heifers steady to 3.00 lower with decline under 500 lbs. Slaughter cows steady. Demand moderate to good. Supply heavy. Rainy, miserable day that probably impacted the steer calves although quality in the lighter cattle was not as good as the past couple of weeks.
