As filed

Compared to last week's sale, Slaughter Steers and Heifers sold for 3.00-5.00 lower. Due to a large supply and buyer demand dropping midway through sale, later sales sold weaker. Slaughter Bulls traded mostly 4.00 higher. Slaughter Breaker Dairy Cows traded mostly 4.00 higher while Slaughter Boner and Lean Dairy Cows traded mostly 7.00-8.00 higher with good demand. Feeder Dairy Calves traded mostly 60.00-70.00 higher, and Feeder Dairy Beef Cross Calves traded mostly 30.00-60.00 higher with good demand.
