As filed

Compared to last week, a good quality offering of 450-700 lb steers sold fully steady to firm, with 550-600 lbs selling 3.00-5.00 higher, over 700 lbs were not tested. Feeder heifers weighing 400-500 lbs had few good comparisons on last week's good quality offering, 500-600 lbs sold firm to 3.00 higher and 600-650 lbs sold with a higher undertone. Two pot loads and several part loads of good quality steers and heifers weighing 500-650 lbs along with a pot load of fancy black heifers weighing 620 lbs all sold with good demand on and active market. Slaughter cows traded firm to 5.00 higher on a light test.
