Compared to last week: Feeder Steers under 500 lbs, steady to 3.00 lower; 500 - 650 lbs, 7.00 to 10.00 higher; over 650 lbs, steady to 2.00 higher. Heifers under 450 lbs, steady to 2.00 lower; 450 - 500 lbs, 9.00 higher; over 500 lbs, mostly steady. Very good demand for several long strings of large packages and load lots.
