As filed

Due to the light sale we had last week, there are no comparable sales for last week. However compared to two weeks ago steers 450 to 650 lbs sold 8.00 to 12.00 higher, steers 700 to 800 lbs sold 10.00 to 13.00 higher, and steers 800 to 950 lbs sold 5.00 to 8.00 higher. Compared to two weeks ago 650 to 700 lb steers and heifers both sold 20.00 higher. Compared to two weeks ago heifers 500 to 650 lbs sold 6.00 to 12.00 higher and heifers 700 to 850 lbs sold 6.00 to 10.00 higher. The receipts were heavy receipts this week due to the light receipts last week because of the weather. The demand was moderate.
