As filed

Compared to last week; steer and heifer calves over 650 lbs traded 5.00 to 8.00 lower. Steers and heifers under 650 lbs traded mostly steady. A lighter offering today with a few buyers in the seats but several buyers on the internet. Mainly all package trade for the smaller offering. Sale again next Wednesday.
