As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers sold sharply higher, mostly 15.00 to 18.00 higher and heifers steady to 6.00 higher with most of the advance on light heifers under 500 lbs. Slaughter cows 5.00 to 10.00 higher. Another large run this week as dry conditions worsen and the feeder market continues to surge, giving producers little reason to hang on to their stock. The market climbed throughout the day, peaking with a couple consignments of backgrounded yearlings ringing the bell at some lofty prices. Supply heavy, demand very good.
