As filed

Compared to last week's light offering, steers and heifers sold firm to 10.00 higher, spots up to 13.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 5.00 higher. Pretty slim comparisons overall to last week's much smaller run. Thursday's sale highlighted a handful of loads or part loads from longtime reputation consigners, all met with good demand and having no trouble finding rides to a new home. Supply moderate, demand good to very good.
