Compared to last week: There were too few receipts last week to establish a trend. However, this week steers and heifers both had an extremely higher undertone noted. Demand good. Quality good thru attractive. Slaughter cows mostly steady in a light test. Slaughter bulls 5.00 higher also in a light test. A total of 228 cows and bulls sold with 68 percent going to packers.
