As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers unevenly steady, except steers 850-900lbs steady to 5.00 higher, heifers 750-800lbs 1.00 to 2.00 higher, 9-950lbs 7.00 to 8.00 higher. Demand for this light offering of green cattle was good. Several lots of pre conditioned, eye appealing yearlings this week again. Cattle were very clean, most hauled in over night. CME Live Feeder Cattle Market was down today, while corn is up twenty plus. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 higher. Slaughter bulls 3.00 to 4.00 higher.

REMINDER: No sale next week in observance of the 4th of July.
