As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves under 600 lbs sold mostly 5.00-10.00 lower and heifer calves sold 5.00 lower. Heavier weights sold with a weak undertone, however a few sales of higher quality, long weaned steers weighing 650-700 lbs sold with the best demand and the smallest losses trading near steady. Demand was mostly moderate. Tuesday's positive day on the board was all erased Wednesday and has left less confidence in the market place. Supply was moderate. It has been difficult to move cattle around with large amounts of rain over the last 10 days. The majority of slaughter cows sold 2.00-3.00 lower except for a few high dressing fat cows trading steady.
