As filed

Compared to last weeks sale, feeder steers, mainly new crop calves, sold 5.00 to 15.00 higher, with the weaned more attractive calves sharply higher than the new crop calves. The feeder new crop heifers sold steady to 10.00 higher, with a light supply of yearlings in the offering. Supply was light to moderate with good demand throughout the sale. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly steady.
