Compared to two weeks ago, on light offering this week, steers under 650 lbs sold steady to 5.00 higher, while steers over 650 not tested. Heifers sold 5.00 to 8.00 higher. Slaughter cows sold 8.00 to 12.00 higher, with the most advance on the fleshier cows. No comparable sales on slaughter bulls, however a higher undertone noted. Demand was good on light supply and trade was active. The highlight of the sale today was a load of 689 lb yearling heifers that sold at 253.50.
