As filed

Compared to last week; feeder steers and heifers traded steady to 10.00 higher. A smaller offering than recent weeks with a few load lots but mainly package trade. Several new internet buyers and a few new buyers in the seats. A very active market with sales gradually getting smaller as cattle numbers tighten around the area. . Sale again next Wednesday.
