As filed

Compared to last week feeder steers 450 to 550 lbs. were 5.00 to 11.00 higher; 550 to 650 lbs. were 2.00 to 4.00 lower and 650 to 700 lbs. were 1.00 higher. Feeder heifers 450 to 600 lbs. were steady compared to last week. A very large run of spring calves in todays sale. Good buyer demand for the lighter steers and heifers today. Most feeders were in light to moderate flesh condition. Several load lots of calves and yearlings in todays offering.
