As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter steers and heifers steady to 2.00 lower, Holstein steers 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Demand for this attractive offering of steers and heifers was good. Cattle were carrying quite a bit of tag at times, estimated dressed cost was 177.00-180.00. Weighing conditions were fair as many cattle came in over night, many load and half load lots. Packer buyers not as active this week, two way buyers more reserved in their bidding as well. Slaughter cows 3.00 to 7.00 higher, except Lean cows 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Slaughter bulls 4.00 to 5.00 higher.

Slaughter sheep mostly steady, feeder lambs not well tested. Slaughter ewes mostly steady in a narrow comparison as last week was a light test. Good to very good demand on this very nice offering of slaughter lambs and ewes. Moderate to good demand for the bred ewes.
