As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs. 5.00-11.00 lower except 400-500 lb. heifers steady. Steer calves over 600 lbs. 2.00-4.00 lower, heifers 5.00-6.00 lower. No accurate comparison on feeders due to limited receipts both weeks with few yearling types offered. Slaughter cows 5.00-8.00 lower, bulls 6.00 lower. Trade and demand moderate.
