As filed

Compared to last week; steer and heifer calves traded steady to 5.00 higher on a lighter offering than last Wednesday. Yearling steers and heifers also followed the same trend trading 2.00 to 3.00 higher with a few instances 5.00 higher on load lots. Nice offering of feeder cattle with a very active market.
