As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs. 3.00-6.00 higher. No comparison on feeder steers over 600 lbs. but a higher undertone noted though quality more attractive. Feeder heifers steady to 3.00 higher. Slaughter cows 3.00 higher, bulls 4.00 higher though quality more attractive. Trade active, demand very good.
