As filed

Compared to the last sale three weeks ago, steers and heifers sold mostly steady. Demand was good to very good. A heavy supply of mainly long weaned, reputation calves was offered following the long break. Slaughter cows sold 10.00-15.00 higher as the lull in sales over the last few weeks has plants in need of cows.
