As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher. Demand was good for a moderate supply of quality calves as some reputation strings are starting to show up. A welcome, measurable rain fell Wednesday night that settled the dust and brought with it fall like weather. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady.
