As filed

Compared to last week slaughter steers were 1.00 to 2.00 higher with slaughter heifers mostly steady with less packer inquiry and a lighter offering this week. Cows 2.00 to 3.00 higher and a light test of bulls but1.00 higher. All classes of feeder calves were significantly lower with light buyer interest this week but some nice groups of feeders today.
