As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold 4.00 to 6.00 higher. Slaughter cows 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Much better feel to the market here at the local barn this week with several buyers active and looking to own some new stock. Overall quality and condition was above average, especially for grazing type cattle. Supply moderate, demand moderate to good.
