Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs firm to 2.00 higher in a light test. Feeder steers over 600 lbs firm; not enough feeder heifers over 600 lbs for an adequate test. Breaker and boner slaughter cows 2.00 higher; lean cows sold steady. Slaughter bulls not well tested. Trade fairly active. Demand fairly good.
