As filed

Compared to two weeks ago steers sold steady to 2.00 higher. Heifers under 650 lbs sold steady to 3.00 and over 650 lbs sold steady. Demand was good from start to finish. Nearly 2000 head of consignments today were slated to go to summer grass but with extremely dry range conditions in the trade area producers decide to sell. Weighing condition was in the buyers favor most of the day.
