As filed

No comparison to last week due to no coverage but, higher quality steers and heifers were at a good value today. Higher quality Holstein steers were also at a god value this week. Cows were trading mostly steady with high dressing bulls were higher today. Feeder calves were trending steady and small feeders trending higher.
