Compared to the last sale two weeks ago the only weights for comparison were steers 850 to 900 lbs. that were 20.00 higher and 950 to 1000 lbs. 3.00 higher. Today's receipts consisted of several loads of yearlings and the first run of spring calves. Good demand for all weights of steers and heifers. Most came right off of grass and flesh conditions were light to moderate.
