As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves were lightly tested but sold unevenly steady from 5.00 higher to 5.00 lower except for a few packages of 400-500 lb steers selling with a higher undertone. Yearling steers sold steady and a nice offering of several loads of yearling heifers sold with a firm undertone. Demand was mostly moderate for the calves with several carrying some flesh and moderate to good for yearlings with the yearling heifers seeing the most activity. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower.
