As filed

Compared to last sale: Feeder steers 10.00-20.00 higher. Feeder heifers 2.00-7.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves too light to test, but observed as mostly steady. Demand good. Quality attractive. Condition and genetics were a crucial factor in today's sale, if the cattle had either, they brought top dollar. CME Feeder Futures boards closed 6.00 higher today after closing 3.00 higher yesterday.
