As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers sold 5.00-15.00, mostly 11.00 lower. Feeder supply was mostly plain in quality, several long weaned or Value Added cattle sold with a Premium; still high demand for heavier weight cattle. Slaughter cows and bulls not reported due to time restraints.
