As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter steers and heifers 4.00 to 5.00 lower, Holstein steers 1.00 lower. Demand only moderate for this large offering of high quality grading, very attractive, hard fed steers and heifers. As the direct trade established at lower money in the country yesterday and the CME Live Cattle down by triple digits when the sale began packers were firm in their resolve to buy cattle cheaper. Estimated dressed costs ranged from 161.00-164.00, weighing conditions just average. 23 full loads of steers, 1 full load of heifers, balance small packages. Slaughter cows and bulls steady with Monday’s sale.

Slaughter lambs mostly steady, instance to 5.00 higher on 150 lbs lambs. Feeder lambs steady to firm. Slaughter ewes 15.00 to 20.00 higher. Good demand for slaughter lambs and feeder lambs, very good for slaughter ewes.
