As filed

Compared to last week, steers under 600lbs sold 15.00 to 35.00 higher, and heavier weights had few to compare to last week but sold with a firm undertone. Heifers sold mostly 20.00 to 40.00 higher, also based on limited comparisons from last week. This was a calf and yearling wean-vac special sale, and many consignments of high quality stock came to town and found very good demand.
