As filed

Compared to the last tested auction from two weeks ago, feeder steers traded 2.00-4.00 higher and feeder heifers 2.00-6.00 higher. Several nice strings of both calves and yearlings offered with the quality attractive. Rain throughout the day Monday will help the pastures and crops stay in good shape as the countryside is about as green as it can be for late July. Demand was good and supply light.
