As filed

Compared to last week: weaned groups of feeder cattle held mostly steady. Single feeder steers sold 6.00 to 12.00 lower, feeder heifers sold steady to 3.00 lower, and feeder bulls sold steady to 6.00 lower. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady. Quality was plain to average. And demand was moderate.
