Compared to last week: Steer calves and feeders under 700 lbs and heifer calves under 500 lbs unevenly steady with more attractive kinds showing the most strength. Steers over 700 lbs and heifers over 500 lbs mostly 2.00 to 4.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher. Slaughter bulls not well tested. Trade fairly active. Demand fairly good.
