As filed

Compared to last week, a light to moderate supply of calves and feeders sold steady to 5.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good, best for calves under 550 lbs. A good sized consignment of charolais influenced yearlings was offered, but outside of that mostly good quality calves with average weigh-ups are what made their to town. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 3.00 lower.
