As filed

Compared to last week, the majority of steers and heifers sold steady to spots 5.00 higher except for some heifer calves selling sharply higher. Demand was good for a light supply that offered several nice loads of yearlings and some smaller consignments of calves. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly steady.
