No report last week but compared to two weeks ago: Steer and heifer calves under 500 lbs. 4.00-8.00 higher, instances 10.00-15.00 higher on 500-600 lb. offerings. Feeders over 600 lbs. 8.00-15.00 higher. Slaughter cows 5.00-10.00 higher except lean cows steady with one buyer concentrating on fleshier offerings, bulls 3.00 higher. Trade active, demand very good on all classes.
