As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs. much improved in price with load lots of calves with attractive weighing conditions offered. Feeders over 600 lbs. 3.00-4.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00 higher, bulls steady on limited receipts. Trade very active, demand very good.
