As filed

Compared to last week: There was not enough comparable data to call a trend on feeder steers, feeder heifers sold mostly 2.00 to 6.00 higher and feeder bulls sold mostly 1.00 to 4.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold 5.00 higher and slaughter bulls were steady. Demand was moderate and quality was mostly plain.
