As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter steers 1.00 to 3.00 lower, heifers 4.00 to 6.00 lower. Holsteins to few to make a meaningful comparison. Demand for this nice offering of fat cattle was good. Most cattle were hauled in over night making weighing conditions favorable for buyers. There was a small premium for program cattle this week. Estimated dressed cost 229.44 - 233.47. CME Live Cattle and corn both closed lower today. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher. Slaughter bulls sold with higher undertones.

Traditional slaughter weight lambs steady. Demand for this large offering was moderate. Lighter weight lambs sold with higher undertones today. Slaughter ewes Good 2-3, 4-5 and Utility steady to 5.00 lower, Cull 5.00 to 10.00 lower.
