As filed

Compared to the last sale three weeks ago, steer calves under 650 sold 5.00-10.00 higher and heavier weights sold steady to 5.00 higher. Heifer calves sold 10.00-15.00 higher with spots 20.00 higher and yearlings sold 5.00-10.00 higher. Several reputation strings of calves and loads of yearlings were offered and demand was good to very good for a moderate supply. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady except for the high dressing cows 3.00-6.00 lower than the highs from the last sale.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $447.60, low $357.18, median $413.34 across 25 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
