As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady but with several weight ranges seeing the top prices 5.00 lower than a week ago. As a whole, there wasn't the quality in numbers or groups of weaned cattle seen last week. Supply was moderate. Demand was moderate to good. Slaughter cows sold 4.00-8.00 higher, bulls 3.00-5.00 higher.
