As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold steady except for 400-525 lb steer calves trading 3.00-6.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good, best for the grazing type calves. Mostly calves were offered, the quality was good with some fancy calves brought to town but several were straight off the cow or carrying some flesh. Cattle futures closed lower and corn higher on Thursday. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady.
