As filed

Compared to the last special two weeks ago, a very light test and offering of feeder steers under 650 lbs sold with a weak to lower undertone with few good comparisons, 650-800 lb steers sold steady to 2.00 higher and three pot loads of yearlings over 800 lbs sold with a higher undertone. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs were lightly tested with quality not as attractive as last auction with 550-700 lb heifers selling steady to firm. Slaughter cows on a light offering sold steady to 2.00 lower. A very good quality offering of three pot loads of yearling steers over 800 lbs and several good consignments of 650-800 lb steers all sold with the best demand. Bulk of the feeders weighed 650-825 lbs.
