As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers sold 5.00 to 15.00 higher and heifers 4.00 to 8.00 higher, with some spots 15.00-25.00 higher on calves under 600 lbs. Slaughter cows 5.00 to 10.00 higher. Another week with several reputation consignments on offer, mostly weaned and overall better quality than two weeks ago. Grazing cattle continue to be the stars of the show with unprecedented demand. Supply moderate, demand good to very good.
