As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves and feeder steers and heifers were mostly firm. Slaughter cows and bulls steady to weak. Trade fairly active. Demand fairly good. The trade area remains under extreme drought conditions, with a few isolated areas having scattered showers in the last two weeks.
