As filed

Compared to the last sale three weeks ago, steers and heifers sold 10.00-25.00 higher. Demand was good for a moderate supply that included several loads of yearlings and consignments of fancy calves. Buyers were ready to get back to work acquiring some cattle and it made for a snappy sale. Cattle futures were lower for the first time in several trading sessions. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady.
