As filed

Compared to last Friday, steers and heifers sold unevenly steady to 5.00 lower on comparable offerings. Replacement type heifers sold fully steady. Demand was moderate for grass and feeder cattle with good demand for top quality replacement heifers. Several cancellations of cattle again this week due to rain and muddy road conditions in the trade area. Most lots of cattle were in light to medium flesh scores with a few fleshy cattle in the run. Next Friday, June 7th Annual WLAC Anniversary Sale with 11,000 head on the books.
