As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold mostly 8.00 to 18.00 lower, and heifers were 5.00 to 15.000 lower. The majority of the offering consisted of short or unweaned calves. Supply was light with light demand due to a mix of hot weather, locals finally making up some time in the hayfield, and a sharp drop in the futures board on Tuesday leading to some uncertainty in the market.
