As filed

Compared to last week, steers under 550lbs traded 7.00 to 10.00 higher and steers over 550lbs traded 2.00 to 6.00 higher. Feeder heifers traded unevenly steady from 5.00 higher to 3.00 lower. Demand was good on a light supply. Producers in the area welcomed the first measurable rainfall since August this week and have high hopes for the grass to green up and ponds to fill before the beginning of winter.
