As filed

Compared to last Wednesday: Steer and heifer calves were steady to 5.00 higher with a limited comparison from last week. Heavy supply of calves with good demand. No comparison from last week for yearling cattle but we had good demand for yearlings with heavy supply. Slaughter cows were 3.00 higher. Slaughter bulls not well tested.
