As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers steady to 5.00 lower. Feeder heifers 3.00 to 7.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves unevenly steady with lots of unweaned calves in the offering today. Demand was moderate, but with the warm dry weather more emphasis was being put on condition. Quality was average.
