As filed

No price comparison to last week because of limited receipts. Supply was moderate with very good demand. Three weight steer calves sold up to 332.50, four weight steers sold up to 325.00 and five weight steers sold up to 301.50. A fancy set of 33 heifers weighing 508 lbs. sold for 284.00.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Low	1,602	122.04	1,955	16
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,501	113.31	1,701	8thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	High	881	91.25	804	94

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
