As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers traded mostly 10.00 to 15.00 lower with some instances sharply lower. Slaughter cows 5.00 to 7.00 higher. The overall quality wasn't as attractive as normal, with only a few large consignments highlighting the sale and a hefty dose of very small or odd packages. Supply and demand moderate.
