Compared to last week: best test on steers 850 to 950 lbs 1.00 to 4.00 higher. Best test on heifers 800 to 850 lbs 2.00 to 3.00 higher. Other weight classes not well compared today. Moderate to good demand for today's offering of packages and loads and a couple of strings with lighter, back grounding type cattle seeing the best demand. Quality similar to last week with mostly average to attractive quality cattle offered today. Flesh varied, from moderate to heavy. A moderate to active market with a slightly lighter crowd attending the sale today. Hay season is in full swing with hot weather expected for next week. No feeder sale next Wednesday due to the 4th of July holiday, next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, July 8.
