As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers and calves mostly 4.00-8.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls steady. Replacement cows and pairs in very good demand with producers beginning to need to replace their herds that were reduced or dispersed during the drought conditions that have been in effect the past few years throughout the trade area.
