As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter steers and heifers fully 1.00 lower, Holstein steers steady to firm. Light to moderate demand for steers and heifers, few packer buyers participating. Two way buyers stepped up and bought cattle where they could as the market was not very active as packers were intent on driving the market lower. Overall quality very attractive, and the weighing condition was fair. Estimated dressed cost looked to be from 171.00-174.00 with a few up to 176.00. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 higher, bulls steady as compared to Monday's sale.

Slaughter lambs 1.00 to 2.00 lower. Feeder lambs sold with a steady to firm undertone. Slaughter ewes steady to 3.00 higher. Demand only moderate for slaughter lambs, especially on those lambs under 110 lbs as some regular buyers were not present this week. More of those light lambs went to feeding accounts this week.
