Compared to last week, steer calves not well tested. Steers weighing 700 to 900 lbs 1.00 to 4.00 higher, over 900 lbs sold steady to weak. Heifers not well tested today, however, a lower undertone noted. Slaughter cows and bulls sold unevenly steady. Demand was moderate to good on light to moderate supply.
