As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher except for some fancier light weight steers under 525 lbs and a load of yearling heifers coming off grass selling with a higher undertone. Demand was good for a quality run of calves and yearlings with some bigger groups of calves this week. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to firm.
