As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, grazing cattle under 600 lbs sold with a sharply higher undertone, with some similar sales as much as 15.00 higher. Calves over 600 lbs and yearlings steady to 4.00 lower with the most decline coming on the load lots of yearling steers. Slaughter cows 3.00 to 6.00 higher. CME Cattle futures continued their swift downward spiral Tuesday but even so, yearling trade was very active. Lots of rain overnight and throughout most of the day made for some pretty dreary conditions for sorting and hauling stock. Supply and demand moderate.
