As filed

Compared to last week; feeder steers traded 3.00 to 6.00 lower. Not enough test for steer calves but lower undertones noted. Feeder heifers traded 3.00 to 5.00 lower with the exception of a 1000 lb heifer which traded steady. Heifer calves traded mostly steady to last week on a limited test. A nice offering of all classes of cattle with program cattle and conventional cattle on display.
