As filed

Compared to last week: Steer calves under 600 lbs. steady to 3.00 lower on 300-350 lbs. 2.00 higher on 400-450 lbs., Feeders over 600 lbs. instances 5.00 higher though quality more attractive, calves over 600 lbs. 3.00-4.00 lower. Heifer calves under 600 ls. unevenly steady, a few 450-500 lbs. 2.00 higher, no accurate comparison on feeders or calves over 600 lbs. but a lower undertone noted. Slaughter cows steady, bulls 3.00 higher though quality more attractive. Trade active, demand moderate to good.
