As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 600 lbs. mostly 5.00 higher, over 600 lbs. 1.00-3.00 higher except unweaned calves 3.00 lower. Heifers under 500 lbs. 3.00-7.00 higher, over 500 lbs. 2.00-3.00 higher, except 600-650 lb. unweaned calves 2.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 higher, bulls 1.00 lower though quality not as attractive. Trade active, demand good.
