As filed

Compared to last weeks light run, steers and heifers sold with a higher undertone. Demand was moderate to good, best for 400-450 lb heifers and a few packages of yearling steers. The weather is much improved compared to last week and buyers were more active. Also, more weaned cattle were offered. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold mostly 1.00-4.00 lower.
