As filed

Compared to last week, the majority of the offering consisted of yearlings which sold steady to 6.00 higher and calves under 600 lbs were lightly tested but sold mostly steady to spots 5.00 higher on those under 500 lbs. Demand was good for a moderate supply that featured several multi-load lots of yearlings. Slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 higher, bulls steady.
