As filed

Compared to last week: Steers and heifers mostly steady, however those cattle lacking vaccinations or were short weaned sold to limited demand. Demand beginning to decline as summer's heat and humidity rise. Slaughter cows steady to 4.00 higher. Slaughter bulls 8.00 higher. Packer demand good.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $442.90, low $327.33, median $400.64 across 34 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
