As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers were 2.00 to 3.00 lower and slaughter heifers 1.00 to 3.00 lower with a good offering of steers and heifers today. Holstein slaughter steers had a higher undertone. Cows were 1.00 higher and bulls had instances of higher/lower. Feeder steers were 4.00 higher and feeder heifers were 4.00 to 8.00 higher with feeder bulls too few to compare this week.
