As filed

Compared to last week; steer and heifer calves traded mostly steady to last week with the exception of a 600 to 675 lb weight heifer which traded 2.00 to 3.00 lower. Flesh was the main factor on cattle as being green enough to go back to grass. Nice offering of all classes with again a very active market.
