Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers under 600 lbs and 450-500 lb heifers traded 5.00-10.00 higher; heavier weights of steers and all other weights of heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher. Supply was light, but some quality consignments still made their way to town and demand was good. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 2.00-4.00 higher, except lean cows steady and a few high dressing bulls sharply higher.
