As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 10.00 higher with spost up to 15.00 higher on those weighing 650-750 lbs. Demand was good for a moderate supply that included yearlings, fall born calves and some hard weaned calf weight yearlings. Replacement heifers found good demand once again this week as well. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady.
